## Trust breakdown

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

## MCP tools (4)

### `pjm_feeds` (~210 tokens)

List the feeds published by PJM Data Miner 2 — the catalog of every market-data dataset PJM exposes (LMPs, load, generation, ancillary services, capacity, transmission). Returns each feed's name and metadata so you can fetch it. Use to discover what PJM data exists before querying it. Requires a PJM API key.

Input parameters:

- `_apiKey` (string): PJM Data Miner 2 subscription key. Free after registering at https://apiportal.pjm.com/.
- `feed` (string): Optional: fetch ANY Data Miner 2 feed by its exact name (e.g. "da_hrl_lmps", "inst_load", "ops_sum_prev_period") instead of listing the catalog. This is the escape hatch for the hundreds of feeds wit…
- `row_count` (number): Rows to return (default 50, max 500).
- `start_row` (number): 1-based row offset for paging (default 1).

### `pjm_lmp_realtime` (~250 tokens)

PJM real-time five-minute locational marginal prices (LMP $/MWh) by pricing node, with the total price and its congestion and marginal-loss components. PJM is the largest US grid operator (13 states + DC, ~65M people). Use for "PJM power price right now", "PJM Western Hub price", "which PJM nodes are congested". Requires a PJM API key.

Input parameters:

- `_apiKey` (string): PJM Data Miner 2 subscription key. Free at https://apiportal.pjm.com/.
- `datetime_beginning_ept` (string): Eastern Prevailing Time range filter in Data Miner syntax, e.g. "9/17/2026 00:00 to 9/17/2026 23:59". Omit for the most recent intervals.
- `pnode_id` (string): Filter to one PJM pricing-node id (e.g. 51288 for Western Hub).
- `pnode_name` (string): Filter to one pricing-node name (e.g. "WESTERN HUB").
- `row_count` (number): Rows to return (default 50, max 500).

### `pjm_load_forecast` (~156 tokens)

PJM seven-day load forecast — forecast electricity demand in MW by forecast area (each transmission zone plus the RTO total), hour by hour. Use for "what will PJM demand be tomorrow", "PJM peak forecast this week", capacity and demand-response planning. Requires a PJM API key.

Input parameters:

- `_apiKey` (string): PJM Data Miner 2 subscription key. Free at https://apiportal.pjm.com/.
- `forecast_area` (string): Filter to one forecast area, e.g. "RTO_COMBINED", "PJM RTO", "BGE", "PEPCO".
- `row_count` (number): Rows to return (default 50, max 500).

### `pjm_generation_fuel_mix` (~207 tokens)

PJM generation by fuel type — MW generated and percentage of total from coal, natural gas, nuclear, wind, solar, hydro, oil, storage and other, per published interval. Use for "what is PJM burning right now", "PJM nuclear share", "PJM coal vs gas". Requires a PJM API key.

Input parameters:

- `_apiKey` (string): PJM Data Miner 2 subscription key. Free at https://apiportal.pjm.com/.
- `datetime_beginning_ept` (string): Eastern Prevailing Time range filter, e.g. "9/17/2026 00:00 to 9/17/2026 23:59". Omit for the most recent intervals.
- `fuel_type` (string): Filter to one fuel type, e.g. "Nuclear", "Gas", "Coal", "Wind".
- `row_count` (number): Rows to return (default 50, max 500).

## Common questions

### What is the Pjm MCP server?

Pjm is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.pipeworx-io/pjm. Real-time electricity market data from PJM Interconnection, the largest US grid operator (13… This page covers its npm package (@pipeworx/mcp-pjm).

### Is the Pjm MCP server safe to use?

Pjm scores 82 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 5 November 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the Pjm MCP server expose?

Pjm exposes 4 tools: pjm_feeds, pjm_lmp_realtime, pjm_load_forecast, pjm_generation_fuel_mix. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 823 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the Pjm MCP server still maintained?

Pjm is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

### What licence is the Pjm MCP server under?

Pjm declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.

### What did VerifyMCP test on the Pjm MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 16 checks on Pjm, covering Malware scan, Known CVEs, Install scripts, Dependency health and 12 more. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to an npm package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
