“With Yes Energy’s  API, I'm able to pull historic pricing data for a specific pricing node, a hub. It allows me to pull production data, it allows me to calculate weighted average LMPs to make those decisions. The long-term planning impact if we didn't have Yes Energy subscription, it would take me a long time, it would be a lot of effort.”

Frequently Asked Questions about ERCOT

How long has Yes Energy been working in ERCOT?

Yes Energy has been working in ERCOT since 2008, and we’ve seen the market evolve while we’ve adapted through every change.
What other ISOs does Yes Energy work in?

Yes Energy supports power market participants across all 11 North American ISOs and RTOs.
What changed under RTC+B, and why does it matter for long-term planning?

RTC+B introduced real-time co-optimization of energy and ancillary services, fundamentally changing how prices, reserves, and dispatch are determined. For planners and asset owners, this means evolving price signals, shifting congestion patterns, and new considerations when evaluating long-term asset performance and market strategy.
How does RTC+B impact pricing and congestion over time?

Under RTC+B, real-time prices now reflect both energy costs and the value of reserves, which can shift congestion patterns and price formation. These changes influence long-term revenue expectations, asset valuation, and how market participants assess risk and opportunity.
How does RTC+B impact batteries and asset strategy?

Batteries are now modeled as a single resource with state-of-charge incorporated into real-time optimization, changing dispatch behavior and revenue dynamics. These updates—along with new participation mechanisms—can impact asset performance, valuation, and long-term strategy across portfolios.
How do I connect long-term ERCOT planning assumptions to actual financial performance?

Long-term forecasts bring the most value when they translate into real outcomes. By tracking positions, exposures, and realized P&L in a centralized system, you can connect forward market expectations to actual portfolio performance—helping you continuously refine strategy as ERCOT conditions evolve.
How should I manage contracts in a market with changing pricing and congestion dynamics?

As ERCOT pricing and congestion patterns shift, contract structures and performance become more complex. Having a system to operationalize agreements, automate invoicing, and track contract outcomes ensures your commercial strategy stays aligned with real market conditions and reduces manual risk.
