Powernaut Baselining API

With baselining, you indicate your normal consumption/production behaviour. This baseline is essential to provide flexibility, which is then defined as a deviation from this baseline. You can provide a baseline either for a site, or a resource. See the [guide](/guides/connect/activating-flexibility/baselining) for more information.
