Japan, South Korea, and Brazil Grid Data Now Live in DC Hub Scoreboard — Five Continents on One Renewable-Share Scale

OCCTO, KPX, and ONS join US ISOs, EU zones, Great Britain, and Taiwan in continuous real-time tracking, no quarterly lag

PRESS_RELEASE July 14, 2026

## Global Grid Expansion

Japan (OCCTO), South Korea (KPX), and Brazil (ONS) joined the DC Hub grid scoreboard this week, ranking beside US ISOs, EU zones, Great Britain, and Taiwan on a single, continuously refreshed renewable-share scale spanning five continents.

The expansion means site-selection leads can now compare grids for LatAm and APAC siting decisions the same way they compare ERCOT to PJM — query `get_grid_scoreboard`, no API key required, and receive live renewable penetration and carbon intensity data for 15+ national and regional grids in one call.

## What It Means for Cross-Border Siting

For hyperscalers evaluating Asia-Pacific or Latin American expansions, this eliminates the quarterly-PDF lag that has made renewable-progress comparisons speculative. Instead of waiting for an annual sustainability report to benchmark Brazil's hydro mix against Taiwan's solar progress, planners pull live data the same hour they model a US Midwest build.

**Second-order read:** Markets that lead on renewable share but lag on interconnection speed (e.g. high-hydro grids with thin permitting pipelines) now surface faster in cross-regional screens, sharpening the time-to-power vs. carbon tradeoff before land acquisition.

## Methodology

All grid data refreshes continuously from official system operators — OCCTO for Japan, KPX for South Korea, ONS for Brazil — using the same telemetry ingest as US ISO feeds. No scraped tables, no quarterly reconciliations.
