Current support

GridCertainty’s public API is designed around market-specific data surfaces. Market selection is typically expressed through dataset ids, source filters, and route parameters such as isos. The currently documented market with active dataset coverage is:
  • ercot

ERCOT dataset coverage

The public API exposes ERCOT data through the dataset catalog and query routes. Key ERCOT dataset families include:
Dataset familyExample dataset idsPurpose
System loadercot_load, ercot_net_loadTotal load and net-load analysis
Fuel mixercot_fuel_mixGeneration by fuel type
Capacity and supplyercot_capacity_forecast, ercot_available_seasonal_capacity_forecastCapacity outlook and supply headroom
Storageercot_energy_storage_resourcesCharging, discharging, and net output
Real-time pricingercot_lmp_real_time_5_min, ercot_lmp_latest_by_settlement_pointLMP analysis across locations
