Each value is the mean over 28 complete local days from 8 October to 5 November 2026, weekdays and weekends together, for the hour starting at that local clock time. The single highest hour of demand in the whole 30 day window was 42 MW; it is a published reading, not an average, and is not part of the profile above.

Assumptions
- Hours are local clock time in America/Chicago. A local day is used only if it is whole inside the 30 day window and at least 22 of its hours are complete; the profile uses the 28 most recent such days. Daylight saving follows the local clock: on a clock change day the missing hour is absent and the repeated hour is averaged over both readings.
- The average mixes weekdays and weekends and covers only 28 days, so it describes recent conditions, not a seasonal norm.
- The evening ramp is the largest rise over three hours in the average profile, starting between 14:00 and 20:00 local time.
