Energy is the infrastructure that everything else depends on. When it is disrupted – by a geopolitical event, a grid disturbance, a pipeline incident, or a policy change – the downstream effects move faster than most organizations can track. The ESB is built for the buyers and operators who need to see those effects coming.
Coverage areas
Grid Status
DOE OE-417 electric disturbance reports, NERC reliability alerts, and real-time status across major US regional grid operators (PJM, MISO, SPP, ERCOT, CAISO).
Fuel Markets
Brent and WTI crude pricing, Henry Hub natural gas, retail fuel averages, EIA petroleum and gas storage draws, and OPEC production developments.
Infrastructure Events
PHMSA pipeline safety incidents, NRC nuclear plant events, transformer lead-time tracking, and physical security events at energy infrastructure.
Policy & Regulatory
FERC capacity market orders, EIA reports, IEA global assessments, and energy regulatory developments at the federal and state level.
Geopolitical Energy Impact
How the current geopolitical environment – Hormuz, LNG supply chains, OPEC decisions, European gas storage – translates into energy supply and price exposure for US buyers.
72-Hour Decision Triggers
The specific developments that would require operational or procurement decisions in the next 72 hours – scored with explicit likelihood and confidence per ICD 203.
