Changes to this collector

A change in the collector is a change in the data. Anyone reading a step in a series is owed the day it moved under them.

    First collected, from PJM Data Miner 2.

    PJM's daily generation outage forecasts, kept by PJM indefinitely. Reconciled against live responses on 2026-09-13.

How this stream is checked

  • Pulled straight from PJM Data Miner 2 · frcstd_gen_outages — no reseller in between — and compared against that file before it is served.
  • Null means the source did not report it — never zero.
  • A reading lands daily, ninety days ahead; the interval timestamp is the start of the interval, in UTC.
  • PJM's Eastern Prevailing Time observes daylight saving; its rows carry UTC as well. Every timestamp Dryos serves is UTC.
