I think the unit you and the article want are MW-Day of un enforced capacity UCAP, not MW/Day. PJM claims this will be a 1.5-5% yoy increase for retail power. https://www.pjm.com/-…

Very interesting project, I wish I had gone down this route instead of the undocumented hell of usb PTP with hundreds of edge/corner case work arounds.
