About this data

Each row is one SCED run, roughly every five minutes, for one generation resource and its QSE. It shows what the market told the unit to do (the SCED base point) next to what it was doing: telemetered net output, sustainable and dispatch limits, output schedule, status and ancillary service figures. The ancillary service fields changed when Real-Time Co-optimization plus Batteries went live on 5 December 2025. ERCOT discloses the data after 60 days from report NP3-965-ER, so it is a historical record rather than a live feed.

What people use it for

  • Study how individual plants were dispatched
  • Check how closely units followed SCED base points
  • See how ancillary services were spread across the fleet
