Overview

View averaged hourly LMP data for a pricing node across multiple days (up to 60). Each hour shows the average DA, RT, and spread values across all selected days.

Selectors

  • Pricing Node: Select from all available MISO pricing nodes
  • End Date: The most recent date to include
  • Days: Number of days to average (1-60), counting back from end date

Table Columns

  • HE: Hour Ending (1-24)
  • DA LMP: Average Day-Ahead total LMP across selected days
  • RT LMP: Average Real-Time total LMP across selected days
  • Spread: Average DA - RT price difference
  • DA CC: Average Day-Ahead congestion component
  • RT CC: Average Real-Time congestion component
  • ยฐF / mph: Average temperature and wind at the node's nearest NOAA airport (zone-level; sparse coverage shows a dash)
  • N ยฐF / S ยฐF / IL ยฐF / IN ยฐF / MI ยฐF / AR ยฐF: Average footprint-wide reference temperatures (identical across nodes) โ€” MISO North (Minneapolis, KMSP) and South (New Orleans, KMSY) beside the node-local ยฐF; Illinois (Chicago, KORD), Indiana (Indianapolis, KIND), Michigan (Detroit, KDTW) and Arkansas (Little Rock, KLIT) hubs at the right
  • DA Ld / RT Ld: Average MISO system day-ahead forecast vs actual load in GW (EIA-930) โ€” system-wide, identical across nodes

Use Case

Useful for identifying hourly patterns and typical spreads at a node. Averaging multiple days smooths out daily volatility to reveal trends.
