About GridVigil

GridVigil is a power-grid intelligence dashboard for the U.S. electricity system — built for data-center developers, energy investors, and infrastructure professionals who need a fast read on where grid capacity is getting tight.

What GridVigil does

For 10 U.S. grid regions — ERCOT, PJM, CAISO, MISO, SPP, NYISO, ISO-NE, and three non-ISO groupings (Southeast, Mountain West, Florida) — GridVigil computes a 0-100 Power Pressure Score from real public data: hourly demand and generation from the EIA, official reserve-margin figures from grid operators and NERC, weather data from NOAA, and (where available) each grid operator's own real-time feeds. Every region page shows historical trends, a multi-year outlook, the generation mix, and automatically generated alerts.

What GridVigil is not

GridVigil does not track individual outage events, does not simulate or forecast beyond what the underlying sources publish, and never fabricates a number — where real data isn't available for a region or metric, GridVigil shows that explicitly rather than guessing.

How it stays current

A scheduled pipeline re-fetches every source roughly every 6 hours, recomputes scores and alerts, and republishes the site automatically.
