Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Solar and Wind to Top Coal Power in US for First Time in 2024
It’s a wide range of sources but basically the different Independent System Operators in the US and the Energy Information Agency (EIA) All of our data scrappers are open source: https://github.com/kmax12/gridstatus

Dashboard of the real time electricity prices and sources (e.g. natural gas, solar, wind, etc.) across the US.
I did not create this, just found it. I think the creator can be reached via GitHub: https://github.com/kmax12/gridstatus

For the first time, renewable energy generation beat out coal in the US
Long-term trends clearly demonstrate the energy grid’s transition to renewable energy sources.
However, renewables like solar and wind come with unique challenges due to their intermittent nature. They are more variable, harder to forecast, have location constraints, and can benefit from battery storage. These factors lead to a more dynamic grid than before.
For instance, several regions in the country provide five-minute updates on their energy generation mix, enabling near real-time observations of renewable energy effects throughout the day
For example, numerous regions across the country provide updates on their energy generation mix at five-minute intervals, allowing for close to real time observations of these effect of renewables throughout the day.
To help those involved in the energy transition, I created an open-source project called Grid Status (https://github.com/kmax12/gridstatus) that provides fuel mix, wholesale pricing, load, load forecasts, and more.
Additionally, I've developed real-time visualizations to make this data more accessible and easier to comprehend: https://www.gridstatus.io
I hope making this data more accessible and understandable will accelerate the transition away from fossil fuels.
