Markets & Operations

PJM Tools

PJM's tools give members access to a continuous flow of real-time energy data that enables them to make business decisions and manage their transactions. For markets to function effectively, the participants need information - and the ability to act on it quickly. Real-time price information allows members to follow market fluctuations and make rapid buy and sell decisions. If prices are rising, sellers can come into the market, while buyers may decide to shift their operations or buy power elsewhere.
