PowerIQ

PowerIQ provides day-ahead market and real-time price forecasts, allowing you to capitalise on price spreads. We compare our demand and wind generation forecasts with the ISO to determine where deviations may drive discrepancies in price, giving you an extra layer of insight.

PowerIQ reports include detailed congestion analyses. Recap reports review constraints for the previous day and identify the market conditions and transmission outages that drove each constraint.

Congestion tables are also included in the Bal-Day and Next-Day reports, where analysts provide a list of constraints most likely to bind based on power flow analysis, transmission line outages, historical precedent and in-house modeling.

Also included in these tables are drivers for each constraint, high risk hours, a forecast confidence rating, hub impacts, top sources and sinks, and more.

Graphically, qualitatively, and quantitatively, PowerIQ reports highlight the optimal times to purchase power and the associated risks to prices – both at the hourly and daily level. Daily scenario simulations with toggled wind, demand and/or gas prices further highlight sensitive time frames at hubs and load zones.

While our data can be ingested into internal models, PowerIQ reports already synthesise this information and present it with commentary delivered to your inbox before 9am Eastern Time.

We lend confidence and efficiency in a pressurised morning process. We clean the data, send an early risk and weather commentary, and provide a second set of eyes on everything from transmission outages to monitored generation ramp rates.

Our accurate analysis and forecasting provides a unique lens into policy impacts and supply and demand dynamics. Our expert analysts provide transparency into industry events that impact your day-to-day operations such as outages, congestion and constraints.
