This forecast is ISO New England's hourly systemwide demand forecast for today and the next two days. This is the expected amount of electricity to be used in the New England Balancing Authority Area: Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, and most of Maine. The forecasted demand incorporates the demand-reducing effects of regional energy-efficiency measures acquired through the Forward Capacity Market, distributed generation, and a reduction in peak load that can be expected from the region's behind-the-meter photovoltaic installations at homes and businesses. The forecast is updated twice daily at 6:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. eastern prevailing time.
