July 18 ERCOT Results: 15x More Accurate Forecasts During Peak Hours
Amperon's demand forecasts were 7x more accurate than ERCOT's on July 18

ERCOT broke another demand record yesterday at 82.6 GW. ERCOT historically over forecasts demand, especially when temperatures reach 100+ degrees. Yesterday was no different.

ERCOT predicted demand to reach 85.8 GW at its peak. But for those that rely on accurate forecasts, that delta can make a huge difference.

On July 18, Amperon's forecasts were

  • Nearly 3x more accurate than ERCOT's
  • 7x more accurate at peak demand (6:00 p.m.)
  • A whopping 15x more accurate during the peak hours of 4-8 p.m.

With a few more months of summer remaining, we’d be happy to show you how Amperon can provide the most dependable demand forecasts you can rely on.

Also, shoutout to ERCOT for setting another record yesterday: Renewable generation hit an all-time high of 31,536.5 MW!
