About the Mid-Atlantic grid region

The Mid-Atlantic region is anchored by PJM Interconnection, the largest electricity market in the United States, serving the corridor from Ohio through Pennsylvania, Virginia and Washington, D.C. Data-center growth has made PJM demand one of the most watched numbers in American energy.

On the map, this region is part of the Eastern Interconnection. Its status color comes from the ratio of actual demand to the bias-corrected day-ahead forecast: green means headroom, amber and orange mean it is tightening, and red means demand has met or passed what the operator expected, or a real emergency has been declared.
