Grid stress

Grid stress monitor for heat, storms, demand, and infrastructure context

Grid stress can rise during heat waves, cold snaps, storms, wildfire conditions, equipment constraints, or fuel disruptions.

The challenge is knowing when grid conditions are just background context and when they should trigger practical preparedness steps such as charging devices, conserving power, or checking local utility guidance.
