GridPulse | ERCOT Peak-Load Shift Optimizer & Sub-Panel Telemetry

Shave feeder peak demand before simple-cycle gas peakers & rolling load-shed relays trip.

Stagnant high-pressure heat dome pushes afternoon ambient temperatures to 104°F while thermal generation derates and evening AC load spikes across ERCOT.
