Looking for technical co-founder for an energy software startup!

We are building an AI-powered asset intelligence and market analytics platform for energy asset owners. (Website: edenenergy.ai) We combine real-time market data, operational data, and AI-generated market intelligence to give energy asset owners and energy traders a unified operational view.

About us: We are an early-stage startup, pre-funding, and pre-revenue. My co-founder and I worked together at a large energy company doing energy operations and trading. We are both certified and experienced in operating energy generation assets on all the power grids in the United States. We will be handling the business side of things as we have domain expertise. We vibe-coded our MVP, but we want someone who knows the technical side of things to help prepare and lead the onboarding process when we take on our first customer.

Skills we are looking for: Building data pipelines, API integrations, multi-tenant client dashboard with strict data isolation built on Next.js and Supabase, PostgreSQL. Experience with workflow automation and ML/forecasting is a huge plus! Aside from technical skills, someone who can operate in a vague environment, learn together as we build, and has an interest in the energy markets (or just learning it from scratch!). Time commitment is a few hours per day with daily team check-ins.

If you are interested, please DM me or leave a comment sharing your experience and background. Thank you!

In PJM, Regulation Prices, an ancillary service revenue that batteries receive, reached nearly $6,000/MW yesterday.

Interconnection queue is a problem in PJM, but economics are signaling more batteries to be built out in PJM.

We built a free PJM recap tool (part 2)

Hi all. A few months ago, I asked our subreddit whether people were interested in a PJM recap tool. We got a bunch of people interested so we built and launched it a month ago. Since then, we received really good feedback and made lots of changes to our website. I'm wondering what people think about the state of the tool now. Would love additional feedback!

Regulation prices in PJM spike to $9,700/MW this afternoon, huge payday for batteries

Regulation prices break $27,000/MW for some 5-minute intervals today. Batteries offering regulation today are making big money. Hopefully this incentivizes more battery buildout in PJM

PJM Power Prices break $1,200/MW tomorrow evening as load forecast breaks 166 GW and solar ramps down

PJM in a Maximum Generation Emergency Alert and Hot Weather Alert. High temperatures spiking cooling demand coinciding with solar ramp down in the evening leading to extremely high prices as conventional generators get picked up to meet the net load.

This evening, Power Prices in PJM clear $800+ / MW as high temperatures spike cooling demand and solar ramps down

source: edenenergy.ai

"Major PJM cities are forecast in the mid-90s to near 100°F: Washington DC near 100°F, Newark near 100°F, Philadelphia near 98°F, Richmond near 97°F, Pittsburgh near 98°F, Columbus near 96°F, and Chicago near 96°F."

This evening, prices reach past $800/MW as solar ramps down and other dispatchable sources (natural gas, coal) ramp up to meet the cooling demand in major PJM cities.

Lots of emergency procedures today as well, including Hot Weather Alert and Maximum Generation Alert across the RTO.

Yesterday, power prices in PJM reached $550/MW due to the hot weather across the region

Source: Power Market Insights

"Chicago was in the mid-90s, Philadelphia and Washington DC were near 90°F, Columbus was near the upper-80s, and Pittsburgh was in the mid-80s. These conditions sustained broad cooling demand across western, Mid-Atlantic, and eastern PJM, contributing to the 144 GW peak.

The price spike happened in the evening. Actual load ran more than 5 GW above forecast, solar output dropped sharply, wind fell below forecast, and 30-minute reserves declined."

In PJM today, solar overperforms forecast to drive down prices to as low as $14.73/MWh.

Solar keeps prices in PJM low during the sunny hours but we still need batteries for the solar ramp down where prices are quickly rising to $65/MWh this early evening

Yesterday, PJM power prices reached $720/MWh as solar began to ramp down in the evening and wind underperformed forecast

When solar is strong and wind outperforms, we see subdued prices but that can quickly change when renewables underperforms and more expensive dispatchable generation fills in to meet demand. Speaks to how important renewables are to lower prices in the market and how sensitive the market is to any misses in renewable energy forecasts.

I'm a former power trader and I built a free tool that gives you an hourly PJM market summary - load, renewables, pricing trends

Hi all. A few folks over at grids_ops subreddit encouraged me to build a tool that summarizes PJM power market trends (e.g. load, renewable generation, etc.). It took me a month, but I finally built it so I'm excited to share with ya'll. It's a free tool so I hope you enjoy it!

tool: edenenergy.ai

Right now, I have it set to update data and insights every hour for today and a daily recap for yesterday. I would love feedback from people who follow these markets closely!
