@gridstatus.io - great shot of the heat wave driving up prices across the Eastern Interconnect. But Texas? Doing just fine thanks to solar, wind and storage - prices are muted even at 6:00 Central.

Also, war sucks.
If only we had something that could transfer power between regions...? Although the map is looking pretty red everywhere - maybe ERCOT could be exporting?

Check out the ERCOT Large Load queue. F*ing wild. 156GW on an 80 GW system, more than *doubled* since December. 20 GW under study (pretty firm!).
Gonna be a long hot night on the east coast. @gridstatus.io
Check out the prices in NYISO - almost $1,500/MWh.
China just surpasses 1 TW of solar - installed nearly 100 GW just last *month*
