Clearing Out The In-Box -- Friday Night -- January 28, 2022

ISO NE: might as well start here. It's gonna be a rough weekend. Right now:

Note the nuclear flat line until later this afternoon. See max nuclear below.  

From an earlier post:

For the record (from a reader who has better data points than I do on this issue),  max capacity, all numbers rounded and rounded slightly higher. I have no idea how accurate these are but they will provide me a baseline from which to start:

  • fuel mix
    • coal: 400 MW
    • hydro: 1,000 MW (today's max: 750 MW)
    • oil: 2,600 MW
    • nuclear: 3,350 MW
    • renewables: 2,000 MW
    • natural gas, so far today: 4,200 MW
