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.
- 2026-09-14
First collected, from SPP's marketplace portal.
SPP's day-ahead market summary was not here. Reconciled against the live files on 2026-09-14: schema, nulls, primary key, value bands and row counts passed.
How this stream is checked
- Pulled straight from SPP Marketplace Portal · DA Market Clearing — 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, afternoon CT; the interval timestamp is the start of the interval, in UTC.
- SPP publishes on US Central prevailing time, with a UTC column on every row. Every timestamp Dryos serves is UTC.
