Editorial Policy

The editorial policy of gridandgeneration defines what it will and will not publish. The site covers the physical and market structures of electricity in North America, including generation, grid operation, demand, markets, policy, and the associated companies and supply chains. It will not publish content related to betting or gambling on energy prices. It will not feature stories about the private lives of individuals. It will not present health, legal or financial advice as instructional content.

gridandgeneration maintains a clear separation between reporting and reference material. News articles report on specific recent events, developments or announcements. Reference pages provide enduring, factual summaries of entities like regional grids, generation sources, utilities, power plants, and state markets. These reference pages are updated as conditions change but are not structured as chronological news reports.

All published claims must be verifiable from primary sources such as regulatory filings, official market data, or company announcements. Where a claim cannot be independently verified, it will not be presented as fact. The site does not invent quotes or create synthetic statements. If significant but unverified information is in circulation, it may be reported only with clear attribution to its origin and with the caveat that it is not confirmed.

Every image used is a real photograph or graphic. Where a credit exists, it is displayed. The site will never use software generated images of real people's faces. Photographs of individuals are used only where they are essential to a news story about a public figure in a professional capacity, and always with proper attribution.

Readers who wish to comment on editorial content or report a potential error can write to the editors via the contact address provided on the site. All correspondence is reviewed, and substantive corrections to published material are made promptly and transparently.
