Description

This event tracks the highest electricity usage on Texas's ERCOT power grid throughout 2026. It measures whether demand exceeds specific thresholds, reflecting how energy consumption patterns may shift due to factors like weather, economic growth, or energy efficiency measures.

Kalshi

The event resolves based on the official settled peak-demand value published by ERCOT for the calendar year 2026. For resolution, ERCOT’s integrated system load must be evaluated for a full hour—instantaneous load readings are excluded. Any preliminary peak-demand figures reported during the year may be revised, and the final settled value will determine the outcome. All markets share these unified rules, with each market resolving to 'Yes' only if the reported peak demand exceeds its specific threshold: 92,000 MW, 94,000 MW, 96,000 MW, or 98,000 MW.
