English term or phrase: assigned energy forecast profile
Hello,

I'd like to ask if I can use the indefinite article before the above expression provided I mention it for the first time.

***An assigned energy forecast profile*** sounds wrong to me. Or should I use 'the'?

I'd highly appreciate if you can provide a rule for using articles before adjectives, if any.

Thank you in advance.
