# get_power_availability_timeline

Power-availability TIMING for one US state — when power gets EASIER, year by year. Composes: new generation coming online from EIA-860M monthly, split by confidence class (under-construction vs planned vs testing — never blended); scheduled retirements as dated subtractions; LBNL interconnection-queue depth as congestion context (NO delivery dates — the feed has none and most queued MW never completes). The one derived number, cumulative_firm_signal_mw, counts ONLY under-construction+testing minus retirements — speculative permitting-stage MW is shown but never folded in. Answers "when is new capacity landing in Ohio", "what comes online in Georgia by 2027" with dated, sourced, per-lane-vintaged numbers. HONESTY LINE: supply-side signals, not a load-interconnection promise — generation ≠ deliverable load, and utility study timelines / large-load tariff processes / substation-grain delivery are declared out of coverage in constraint_coverage rather than estimated. Try: get_power_availability_timeline state=OH. Do NOT use for the raw project list (get_power_pipeline), live headroom today (get_grid_intelligence), queue survivors (get_refined_queue), or where-to-build ranking (rank_markets / ai_capacity_index) — this answers WHEN, for one state.

## Facts

- Tool: `get_power_availability_timeline`
- Server: Mcp Server (`https://dchub.cloud/mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/cloud-dchub-mcp-server.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/azmartone67/dchub-mcp-server
- Risk category: Read (Low risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server auth posture: open
- Server CORS policy: *
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 3 (1 required)
- Recommended policy verdict: Allowed

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `mw` | number | no | Optional target MW for CONTEXT ONLY — echoed back with an explicit note; never converted into an energize-by date, which this data cannot honestly state |
| `state` | string | yes | 2-letter US state code (required), e.g. OH, GA, TX — the timeline grain; a state can span ISOs and the response reports ISO membership as context |
| `years` | number | no | Window in years from now, 1-6 (default 5) |

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "get_power_availability_timeline",
    "arguments": {
      "state": "<state>"
    }
  }
}
```

## Why get_power_availability_timeline is rated Low

Tool queries and composes existing energy infrastructure data with no modification or external operation side effects.

From the tool's own definition: "retrieves power-availability timing data, queries EIA-860M, LBNL interconnection-queue feeds"

## Use case

AI agents call get_power_availability_timeline to retrieve information from Mcp Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Mcp Server:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_power_availability_timeline": {}
  }
}
```
