About Power Tracker

Power Tracker is an independent, automatically updated, US-first tracker of public-sector power infrastructure contracts: grid and transmission lines, substations, interconnectors, power plants (solar, wind, gas, nuclear, hydro), battery storage and EV charging. It covers US federal awards and opportunities, plus UK and European tenders and contract awards.

Sources: United States (federal)

Contract awards come from the keyless USAspending.gov API (US Department of the Treasury), searched by award description for power phrases such as substation, transmission line, power plant, hydropower, microgrid, energy storage and EV charging. Open opportunities come from the SAM.gov Get Opportunities API. Both are US government works in the public domain. Product and Service Codes (PSC) and NAICS codes decide what counts: construction, utilities and power-equipment codes support a notice, and parts, IT and energy-purchase codes send it to the AI check or exclude it.

United Kingdom

UK notices come from Find a Tender and Contracts Finder (open OCDS APIs) and below-threshold Scottish notices from the Public Contracts Scotland OCDS API, all under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Network operators and generators that buy under the utilities rules publish on Find a Tender too. Large GB grid connection agreements (100 MW and more) come from the NESO registers.

Europe

European notices come from the keyless TED Search API of the Publications Office of the European Union. We search titles and descriptions for power phrases in the EU languages (substations, high-voltage lines, power plants, wind and solar parks, battery storage, charging infrastructure), then apply the same rules and AI check. Titles and excerpts are shown in the notice's own language.

News

The News section covers private-sector projects that public tenders miss. We read the public RSS feeds of Utility Dive, Power Engineering, Renewable Energy World, Energy-Storage.news, PV Tech, reNEWS, Offshore Wind, electrive, Energy Live News and The Energyst, and the news feeds of the US Department of Energy and the UK Department for Energy Security and Net Zero. We store and show only the headline, the source, the date and the link, plus a one- or two-sentence summary we write ourselves. We never republish article text.

What counts as a power infrastructure notice

A notice is included when its title is about the physical electricity system (substations, transmission and power lines, grid connections, interconnectors, power plants, wind and solar farms, hydropower, nuclear, battery storage, microgrids or EV charging) and nothing in it points elsewhere. Buying electricity or gas, routine electrical maintenance of ordinary buildings, rooftop solar panels on single buildings, heat pumps and buying electric vehicles are left out. Borderline cases, including notices that mention power only in their description, are checked by a small AI model. Mistakes are possible, so check the official notice.

Parent companies and tickers

For each supplier we look up its Legal Entity Identifier in GLEIF, the Companies House API (UK) or the SAM.gov parent record (US), and check the parent's securities against OpenFIGI and the SEC company list. We only show a ticker when the data confirms a listed equity. We never guess.
