Sign up for ISO Alerts

Sign Up for ISO email and SMS alerts to recieve timely notices of ISO demand that could have an impact on your facility's ICAP tag and FY18 demand charge pricing if your facility is on a Time Of Use ("TOU") electric utility meter. Consult your electric utility bill and any commodity agreements you may have for details. AEI now provides coverage for 5 of the 7 major grid operators in the U.S. and will soon be adding ERCOT and SWPP.

Here's how it works

For customers on our AEI Soft Start Real-Time service, you'll receive intraday buildings alerts when your building looks like it will be hitting a new billing period peak, but you should sign up for the standard ISO Alerts so that we have your preferred contact information.

We'll take care of the linkage to connect to your real-time data feed.

Each morning we send you an e-mail message that shows the ISO forecast for today's peak demand and hour. Based on a review of the ISO historic margin of error in predicting the daily peak, we also include a rating to indicate the likelihood that the ISO will reach a new annual peak. The rating is on a scale of 1 (NOT LIKELY) to 5 (EXTREMELY LIKELY).

Every 15 minutes throughout the rest of the day, we watch the real-time demand on the grid. We will send you an SMS and/or email message when the current load exceeds 95% of the Reigning Annual Peak demand (RAP). In cases where ISO is rapidly approaching 95% of the RAP, we will send the alert earlier to account for the previous hour's rise. We will send additional alerts according to your frequency preference so long as the peaking conditions persist.

This is a FREE service. The only catch is that by providing your email address, you are opting in for our very occasional newsletters. We will only use your phone number in connection with this service, and we don't share your information with anyone else. You can cancel the service at anytime.

Terms of Service This is Beta software and comes with no warranties expressed or implied. We get data from various web services provided by grid operators, and we make certain calculations on that data. We cannot guarantee the accuracy or availability of the data they report to us, the statistical implications of our calculations, or any other presentations of the data that we might show. You agree to use this service at your own risk. It is possible that the web services we use are unavailable at any given time and that no alert is sent. You should not assume that the absense of an alert or absense of data in an alert or report means that there is nothing to report. What this means: Before you take any actions based on our alerts, you should always verify the reported information with a second source, namely the source ISO or RTO itself or some other source of information that you trust. AEI and the services that feed us data cannot accept any responsibility for any failure to deliver a report via SMS or E-Mail, or decisions you make based on the alerts or reports you recieve from us. If you work with computers at all, you should understand this is all very reasonable. If you do not, then please do not sign up for the service.
