Success isn't measured by how a platform performs on its best day. It's measured by how well it supports customers on their toughest days.

In energy markets, the toughest days tend to cluster around the same moment: go-live. New charge codes, updated settlement logic, additional reports—all landing at once, while your financial close waits for no one.

When EDAM and DAME went live on May 1, some settlement teams found themselves doing more manual work than before the transition. Downloading statements by hand. Reconciling outside their platform. Validating invoices that should have been validated automatically.

That's not a market problem. That's an infrastructure problem.

PowerCore customers entered go-live with those changes already deployed.

Production-ready workflows, updated reports, new charge codes in place before the market opened. The go-live wasn't the event. Being prepared for it was.

In our industry, reliability isn't a feature. It's the foundation.

Two things make or break an FTR trader: the day you lose 📉 and the day you win. 📈

Financial transmission rights trading is complex, data-intensive, and humbling. We broke down how it works — with real examples — for anyone looking to understand it better.

The Department of Energy's 2026 grid report cites one dataset by name, over and over: the Yes Energy Transmission Database.

The U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) draft National Transmission Needs Study, the report that shapes how the country plans and funds new transmission lines, relies on Yes Energy data for nearly every figure on historical investment. Circuit-miles built. Capital costs by region. Which utilities are actually building, and why.

A few numbers from the report: 85,000 circuit-miles of new or rebuilt transmission went into service between 2016 and 2024. Incumbent utilities built 98% of it. Reliability drove 38% of that buildout, followed by aging infrastructure at 20% and load growth at 17%.

That's the kind of picture only comprehensive, market-wide transmission data can paint.

54 energy market simulations across three interconnections used to take almost two weeks. Now it happens overnight.

EnCompass Cloud handles the infrastructure — backups, updates, hardware scaling — so your team can focus on the modeling.

One of our own Solution Engineers shared what the before and after actually looked like.

A Day in the Life of an EnCompass Cloud User Discover how EnCompass Cloud transformed one power user's energy market modeling workflow — cutting simulation run times from weeks to overnight and eliminating the burden of manual updates, backups, and hardware management.

💬 One of the biggest unknowns in today's load growth story isn't just where new demand is coming from, it's how these new demand centers actually operate. There's plenty of speculation around data centers and hyperscale facilities, but far less real-world operational data.

Join us next Wednesday as Alex Bennitt walks us through the third installment of the Summer Demand Series in our next webinar, "What Does a Hyperscale Data Center Really Look Like?".

PowerCore Summit 2026 is less than four weeks away.

The agenda is packed — CAISO EDAM go-live lessons from PacifiCorp, a customer case study from San Diego Community Power, a look at where Yes Energy's AI and data roadmap is headed, and deep-dive training for front- and back-office workflows. Plus a keynote from Chief Product Officer Chad Hawkinson to kick things off.

If you haven't registered yet, there's still time. It's free. Join us July 28–29 in San Diego at https://hubs.ly/Q04ls9kM0.
