MISO Public Data

Live

MISO real-time grid & market data (fuel mix, load, LMP, wind/solar, interchange, outages) + interconnection queue — no key.

What is MISO Public Data?

MISO (Midcontinent ISO) public data — the same no-key feeds that power MISO's own dashboards: generation fuel mix (including gas), real-time system load, locational marginal prices (consolidated / ex-ante / real-time 5-minute), wind & solar forecast vs actual, net actual/scheduled interchange, generation outages (±5 days), and binding transmission constraints — plus the ~3,800-project generator interconnection queue (filterable by state, fuel type, status). Distinct from the key-gated 'MISO Data Exchange' connector (historical/bulk); this real-time public API needs no key and substitutes for most of it. Free. Toggle on and use.

Available Tools

  • getFuelMix
    Generation by fuel type (incl. gas) — current/today/yesterday.
  • getRealTimeLoad
    System total load (real-time).
  • getLmp
    Locational marginal prices — consolidated, ex-ante, or real-time 5-min.
  • getWindSolar
    Wind & solar generation forecast vs actual.
  • getInterchange
    Net actual / net scheduled interchange (NAI/NSI).
  • getGenerationOutages
    Generation outages, +/- 5 days.
  • getBindingConstraints
    Real-time / sub-regional / reserve binding transmission constraints.
  • getInterconnectionQueue
    Generator interconnection queue (~3,800 projects); filter by state/fuelType/status.
  • getServiceInfo
    Method options and endpoint notes.

Requirements

  • Toggle on
    Toggle on and use — no setup needed.
