Hourly renewable generation profiles compiled for the Western United States as part of the GridPath Resource Adequacy Toolkit. Profiles are stated as a capacity factor (a fraction of nameplate capacity). There are 3 different levels of processing or aggregation provided, all at hourly resolution: Individual plant (wind) or generator (solar) output, capacity-weighted averages of wind and solar output aggregated to the level of balancing authority territories (or transmission zones for larger balancing authorities), and that same aggregated output but with some problematic individual generator profiles modified such that they match the overall production curve of the balancing authority they are within. This data also contains some daily weather data from several sites across the western US and tables describing the way in which individual wind and solar projects were aggregated up to the level of balancing authority or transmission zone.
