About this view

Read the current generation mix

Start with the timestamp, then compare the published output of each fuel. Open the map to inspect generating facilities in the same grid, or compare the reading with real-time prices and the load outlook.

What the total measures

The total follows MISO's published TotalMW. Its signed Battery Storage and Imports adjustment rows are retained separately in the category list and excluded from that total. Adding all displayed category values would change the scope of the published measure.

A fuel mix describes supply across the system. Local prices and transmission constraints answer a different question. Read the mix alongside the price map and demand forecast, then ask the agent to investigate the published evidence.

Questions

How do storage and imports affect the MISO total?

The total follows MISO's published TotalMW. Its signed Battery Storage and Imports adjustment rows are retained separately in the category list and excluded from that total. Adding all displayed category values would change the scope of the published measure.

How current is this reading?

The observation time is printed with the generation total. It is the latest snapshot available from the operator feed, rather than a promise that every market publishes at the same time.

Can I use this as a daily energy mix?

The live reading is MW at one observation. A daily or monthly energy share requires integrating generation across that whole period, with the reporting coverage accounted for.

Can I explore the plants behind the mix?

Open the map to inspect published generating facilities and the surrounding network. Plant inventory capacity and the system's current fuel output are separate measures.
