Success stories

Summer 2025 Heat Wave - PJM

Event:

90+° temps swept across the East Coast in June causing the highest summer demand in 10 years.

Challenge

The ISO was late in detecting demand would spike above 160 GW due to the excessive heat and AC usage.

Amperon result

Amperon forecasted demand to be near 160 GW a full seven days out. Our Day-Ahead accuracy was under .5% for the peak hours of the two highest-demand days.

Impact

Real-time prices soared past $3,000/MWh. Traders using Amperon had a full week to capitalize on price movement before the rest of the market caught on.

Arctic Blast over MLK Jr Weekend - PNW

Event:

An arctic blast in January 2024 brought much colder weather than anticipated to the Pacific Northwest and West Coast over the holiday weekend.

Challenge

Traditional demand forecasts failed to capture the unpredictable effects caused by the abundance of microclimates in mountainous regions.

Amperon result

Despite the challenges of incorrect weather predictions, Amperon’s forecasts were up to 2x more accurate than the ISO for peak hours.

Impact

Electricity prices spiked to $1,000 with some utilities losing as much as $26 million due to inaccurate forecasts.
