get_gas_economics
ActiveTool of cloud.dchub/mcp-server
Behind-the-meter / gas-fired power ECONOMICS for a US data-center market: Henry Hub spot, regional basis differential, delivered industrial + electric gas tariff ($/MMBtu), and the gas-to-grid levelized cost ($/MWh) across CCGT/peaker heat-rate scenarios — the number a BTM developer compares against a grid PPA. Pass market=<slug> (e.g. "northern-virginia", "dallas", "phoenix"); optional heat_rate_btu_per_kwh for a custom scenario. Returns {market, henry_hub_spot_usd_mmbtu, basis_diff_usd_mmbtu, delivered_industrial_usd_mmbtu, delivered_electric_usd_mmbtu, gas_price_used_usd_mmbtu, scenarios_usd_per_mwh:{new_ccgt_6400, avg_ccgt_6800, old_ccgt_7500, old_peaker_12000, custom}, data_basis}. Pairs with get_gas_index (per-state DCGI suitability). Do NOT use for the electricity grid fuel mix (use get_grid_data) or the per-state gas suitability score (use get_gas_index); this is the $/MWh gas-power cost.
