Overview

Each row carries total LMP with its congestion (mcc) and marginal-loss (mlc) components in dollars per MWh; the energy component is lmp less mcc and mlc. event_time is interval-beginning UTC. Prices are preliminary: MISO restates real-time prices in its final settlement reports. Unlike miso.live_lmp, a consolidated snapshot of 325 locations with ex-ante prices, this covers every node.

Query contract

Preserve one canonical row per (event_time, node) before aggregating.

Analysis rules

Group only after preserving the declared grain: event_time, node.

Dataset	Description
Day-Ahead Ex-Post LMPMISO · hourly (day-ahead, published next day)	MISO's day-ahead ex-post locational marginal prices for the full nodal set of roughly 2,600 generator nodes, load zones, hubs, and interfaces, one row per node per operating hour. Each row carries total LMP with its congestion (mcc) and marginal-loss (mlc) components in dollars per MWh; the energy component is lmp less mcc and mlc. event_time is hour-beginning UTC. These are the day-ahead prices a node settles at, published the morning after the operating day and restated when MISO re-runs settlement, so read the latest load per node and hour. A congestion component does not by itself identify which constraint bound. Unlike miso.live_lmp, a consolidated snapshot of 325 locations, this covers every node and is addressable by market date.
Live Consolidated LMPMISO · 1-minute snapshots; 5-minute RT and hourly market runs	MISO's public consolidated price snapshot for 325 official hubs, load-zone nodes, generator nodes, and interfaces. It carries five-minute real-time, hourly integrated real-time, day-ahead ex-ante, and day-ahead ex-post runs plus published loss and congestion components; marginal energy is derived as LMP less those two components. event_time/ref_id identify when the snapshot was requested; raw_interval is the market-run delivery label, so a day-ahead snapshot is a current-hour comparison rather than a forward delivery curve.
AESO Daily Average Pool PriceAESO · daily	AESO's daily average, on-peak and off-peak pool price for each Alberta day.
AESO Hourly Pool PriceAESO · hourly, settled after the hour	Alberta's hourly pool price, the settlement price for energy, with the 30-day rolling average AESO publishes beside it. Alberta's reference price for an hour.
