Data doesn't match the website data - huge discrepancies for SOLAR. #19

Description

How can I get data that matches the numbers that appear on the website? Tried multiple times but cannot get the same numbers.

My code:

with OEClient(api_key=os.getenv("OPENELECTRICITY_API_KEY")) as client:
    response = client.get_network_data(
        network_code="AU",
        metrics=[DataMetric.ENERGY],
        interval="1d",
        secondary_grouping="fueltech_group",
        date_start=date(2025, 11, 1),
        date_end=date(2025, 11, 4),
    )

and got these numbers for solar:

27 2025-11-01 10:00:00                solar   61875.5510
28 2025-11-02 10:00:00                solar   60454.0680
29 2025-11-03 10:00:00                solar   46918.7810

which are very different than those that appear on the website:

besides this, all other categories also do not match but smaller differences, like wind, API response:

30 2025-11-01 10:00:00                 wind   62645.3050
31 2025-11-02 10:00:00                 wind  108030.1200
32 2025-11-03 10:00:00                 wind  105659.0100

or hydro

21 2025-11-01 10:00:00                hydro   37579.5260
22 2025-11-02 10:00:00                hydro   28945.1250
23 2025-11-03 10:00:00                hydro   39744.9370
