PJM Interconnection runs real-time locational marginal pricing across 13 mid-Atlantic and Midwest states plus Washington, D.C. and is the largest wholesale power market in the United States by load, with demand around 150,000–165,000 MW at peak. It settles across dozens of pricing zones and aggregate hubs.

What you can pull

  • Demand — system demand (load) in MW. Hourly (EIA-930).
  • Generation fuel mix — MW by source (gas, nuclear, coal, hydro, wind, solar, battery). Hourly (EIA-930).
  • Prices (LMP) — locational marginal prices (LMP) in $/MWh. Rolling out.
