This market resolves "Yes" if the California Independent System Operator (CAISO), which operates the electric grid serving most of California, declares a NERC Energy Emergency Alert at Level 2 (EEA-2) or Level 3 (EEA-3) at any point from this market's creation through 11:59 PM PT on September 30, 2026. A lower EEA-1 declaration does not qualify. A declaration qualifies as long as it happened before the deadline, even if it is only documented or reported afterward. A DOE Section 202(c) emergency order is not a NERC EEA declaration and does not qualify. Because Energy Emergency Alerts are federally reportable, a qualifying declaration is also verifiable through mandatory NERC or U.S. Department of Energy records (DOE Form OE-417, published at https://www.oe.netl.doe.gov/oe417.aspx) even if no other source captures it. The declaration will be confirmed by any official CAISO communication — its newsroom (https://www.caiso.com/about/news), market notices, or real-time system-condition (Today's Outlook) postings — or by credible national news reporting. It qualifies as long as the declaration itself happened before the deadline, even if it is only documented or reported afterward.

Otherwise, this market resolves "No".**Late-summer heat and surging electricity demand from data centers are the main drivers elevating near-term grid stress through early September 2026.** PJM Interconnection, serving over 67 million customers, extended hot weather alerts through September 4 and operated under EEA Level 1 conditions in early September while issuing maximum generation and load management alerts, with peaks exceeding 152 GW. The Department of Energy issued a Section 202(c) emergency order for Duke Energy Carolinas effective September 3–8 to authorize backup generation amid similar conditions. NERC’s 2026 Summer Reliability Assessment notes record resource additions (over 58 GW) have improved reserves for normal conditions, yet elevated shortfall risks persist in extreme heat or low-renewable-output scenarios, compounded by aging conventional units and rapid load growth. September temperature outlooks favor above-normal readings in southern and western areas, though a seasonal shift toward cooler fall patterns after mid-month should ease pressure before October 1. Traders monitor real-time PJM and regional operator alerts plus updated NOAA forecasts for any escalation toward higher EEA levels.
