Every energy site you follow, in one screen.
What a site earns, how it ranks against its peers, its outages and every incident on record, for the battery, solar and wind sites you own, insure, lend on or run. Built on 2,308 incidents at battery, solar, wind, grid and data centre sites in over 100 countries, sourced and checked each day.
Free, no account: the site checked against every incident on record, as a dated link you can send to a broker or a lender. Paste a list to check a whole portfolio.
Free: one question, the answer by email with every incident linked. Members ask 20 a month, on screen.
Members ask questions in plain words (20 a month included, more when needed) and get a plain answer drawn from the records, with every incident linked to its sources. Membership also opens the full record behind every incident, training courses and a monthly crew briefing.
You have had your free answer. Analyst membership is £39 a month or £390 a year; Team is £1,500 a year for 5 people.

Your sites, watched
Type a site. The register shows it as you type, with its technology, size and place, so the right one is picked, not a lookalike in another country.
Pick one and its page opens: every entry at it, the outage notices and, in Great Britain, what it did last month.
- Every entry at each of your sites, and an email the day a new one is published.
- Outage notices (Elexon REMIT) and satellite heat detections (NASA FIRMS), the morning they appear.
- Settled output and earnings for British wind and battery sites, from Elexon's settlement data.
- Who is behind it: the operating company, its status and its lenders, from Companies House.
Add your sites once. Each morning, see what changed.
A real site's latest settled days, as its public page shows them. Members see the pounds, any period back to 2021, and where it ranks.
Chapel Farm
A day out costs this site about £8,732, at its earnings over the last 31 settled days.
What it earned
Every day back to 2021 for GB batteries, by market: wholesale, the balancing mechanism and the response and reserve auctions. Pick any period and click any day.
Against its peers
Ranked against every site of its kind: GB batteries by earnings per MW, US solar and wind by capacity factor. The low and high side of what it could have made, and the optimiser league.
Alerts the morning they appear
Outage notices from Elexon and Nord Pool, satellite heat detections and new incidents at your sites, by email, Microsoft Teams or Slack.
Who is behind it
The operator, the owner, the trader, the Capacity Market holder and the Companies House record, together on one screen.

Public reporting in. Sourced records out.
Found
News, fire services, regulators, courts and operators, searched every day in many languages.
Written
Each incident is written up in the same fields every time, from its sources and nothing else.
Checked
A separate review against the same sources before anything is published, and rechecks as new reports appear.
Sent
Alerts the day an incident is confirmed. Every entry keeps its sources, so you can check it yourself.
The register's own rule: every entry cites its sources, and a correction is free for anyone. How entries are made.
One register, six ways in.
All free to read, and all joined up: an incident links to its site, a site to its planning application, a company to every incident that names it.
Every site, with its safety record.
A page for each of 91,432 battery storage, solar and wind sites in 208 countries, from open government and research data. Each page shows the site's status, size and dates, any incident on the register that names it, and the incidents at sites like it.
Straight answers.
Can I try it before paying?
Yes. Every entry is free to read, and the free trial opens every record, benchmark, Ask the register and My sites for 7 days with your work email and a six-digit code, no card. Analyst is a month at a time and you can cancel at any time.
Is the register really free?
Yes. The register, the insights, the statistics and the email alerts are free and will stay free. The paid plan adds the structured record behind each entry.
Where does the data come from?
Public sources only: fire service reports, regulator filings, court records, operator statements and the press. Every entry links its sources. See the methodology and the accuracy disclaimer.
Does naming a site or supplier mean they were at fault?
No. An entry records public facts about an incident. It is not a judgement of fault, quality or liability, and the register does not investigate or assign blame.
Can I report an incident in confidence?
Yes. Your details are never published, and an incident given in confidence is anonymised absolutely. Submit an incident.
Who runs the register?
It is independently run and self-funded. Editorial decisions are not influenced by any operator, vendor or service provider. About the register.
