Show availability in MW (total capacity available)
The idea is to be able to visualize Availability in MWs (total capacity available) instead of %. E.g. in a wind farm of 10 x 2MW turbines, if 1 turbine is in Stop during any 10-min timestamp, the site availability will be 18 MW for that timestamp.

Good news! This improvement is included in today’s release. We have added two new Available Capacity for Production Signals:
Available Capacity for Production (Turbine) presents how much power a given turbine is capable of producing at the given time, assuming ideal wind conditions are present. The signal can be used to provide production availability data required by a power off-taker or a production forecasting service, and it differs from the Potential Power turbine signal in that it does not take actual wind conditions into account, but instead assumes ideal wind conditions.
Available Capacity for Production (DC) (Inverter) presents how much power an inverter is capable of producing at a given time, given the time-based system availability and the Solar Capacity DC fixed metadata value. It is often used for energy trading purposes.
