[3-LEG] Power-grid chain, one grid region (?loc=us-ercot)
[3-LEG] Power-grid chain, one grid region (?loc=us-ercot): leading demand pressure from heating and cooling degree days -> current renewable availability, solar and wind -> realized energy inflation (CPI energy year-over-year) and gas price (confirmation gate). A chain, not one reading: confidence = how many legs are lit, in order. Sources: EIA, BLS, Open-Meteo. Descriptive only, never a forecast or advice. No data -> 422 no_charge, not billed. $0.25 per call.
