Which ISOs are supported by this skill?

The skill supports all major US Independent System Operators including ERCOT (Texas), CAISO (California), PJM (Mid-Atlantic), MISO (Midwest), NYISO (New York), ISO-NE (New England), and SPP (Southwest).

Why does the skill use the Python SDK instead of direct API calls?

The Python SDK is preferred because the direct HTTP API has known issues with date filtering on the free tier, while the SDK correctly handles parameters to ensure you receive current data.

Can I perform energy calculations with this skill?

Yes, the skill includes templates and formulas for converting instantaneous load (MW) into total energy (MWh) based on 5-minute, 15-minute, or hourly data frequencies.

Do I need an API key to use GridStatus?

Yes, you need a valid API key from GridStatus.io. You can get one by creating a free account on their website and adding it to your .env file as GRIDSTATUS_API_KEY.

データサイエンスとML

Accesses real-time and historical US electricity grid data including pricing, load, and fuel mix via the GridStatus.io API.

This skill empowers Claude to interact with the GridStatus.io platform, enabling developers and analysts to fetch complex electricity market data from major US Independent System Operators (ISOs) like ERCOT, CAISO, and PJM. It provides standardized workflows for querying real-time load, Locational Marginal Pricing (LMP), and generation fuel mix, while handling Python SDK setup and data processing via pandas. This is particularly useful for energy market analysis, grid operation monitoring, and building data-driven energy applications directly within the Claude Code environment.
