Let me know if this isnt appropriate for this community. Still new here, but I live in a place with a highly variable electricity grid.

Sometimes we're running mostly on coal, othertimes a good amount of wind generation kicks in and our grid runs cleaner. I've been using this site as a means of tracking when our grid is running on more renewable resources in order to make decisions about energy use (mostly when to plug my car in).

Keep in mind, there is a certain amount of estimation and assumptions going on here but the site shows stats like current generation, use, percent renewable, co2 emission estimates, etc.

Thought it might be useful to folks. Theres an app too for those interested.
