FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE October 27, 2023 MEDIA ADVISORY Contact Information: Shaylon Stolk [email protected] Clarity Grid Releases 3Q 2023 Nodal Update Houston (October) – Clarity Grid Solutions (Clarity Grid), the most robust energy data platform on the US power grid, has completed its update of US Nodal additions for Load and Generation for the 3rd Quarter 2023. Over the most recent Quarter there were significant additions to Clarity’s Nodal Library of ISO published Load and Generation Price Node locations. These Price Nodes (Pnodes) are used widely in the industry for a broad set of use cases, including determining optimal siting for new generation/storage, identifying areas of transmission inefficiencies (congestion), and or understanding changes in grid composition by fuel type, amongst others. ISO PNode counts for the 7 US ISOs grew by 688 during the third Quarter of 2023, 628 for Load and 60 for Generation, bringing Total PNode counts in Clarity’s database to 77,121. Last Quarter’s Load node growth was driven by new substation construction in PJM, MISO, and ERCOT principally. On the generation side, Solar additions totaling almost 3,400 mws, and Wind additions of 1,300 mws led additions by fuel type. While all regions apart from NYISO and NEISO saw significant solar capacity come online, only MISO and ERCOT saw wind additions. On the storage side, only ERCOT and CAISO saw additions totaling 970 mw, with CAISO (658 mw) and ERCOT (301 mw) coming online. All new Generation and Load Nodes are now visible on our platform. Unlike other services, Clarity tallies total additions by category based strictly upon ISO issuance of Price Nodes which are necessary for settlement purposes. You may view a complete description of 3Q nodal additions by visiting the Blog section of our website at https://www.claritygrid.net/2023/10/26/third-quarter-2023-us-nodal-additions/. In addition, we recently introduced our ESR Reporting service for all ERCOT batteries, reporiting the full history up to current date of dispatch and revenue profiles for all Resources in ERCOT. A full view of all nodal information is available through a Subscription preceded by a demonstration of our platform if requested.
