What the numbers mean no fluff, units always
- Demand
- MW in use now. 1 MW powers roughly 200 homes at once.
- Forecast
- Day-ahead demand forecast, MW. The operator commits against it.
- Forecast error
- Demand − forecast, same hour. Small errors are normal. Large positive errors can push prices up.
- Interchange
- Net power crossing the boundary, MW. + = export. − = import.
- Clean power
- Wind + solar + hydro share of generation. Nuclear is tracked separately by EIA and excluded here.
- Provenance
- Where each number came from. Live EIA rows carry src=eia930 and a real timestamp. Demo rows carry src=demo. This page shows which it is serving — always.
