  "description": "The regional cost of powering AI compute, made agent-callable. One x402 call returns the energy cost to run a GPU for one hour (H100, H200, B200, A100) in each US wholesale power region (CAISO SP15/NP15; ERCOT Houston, North, South, West, hub average), each region's basis versus the average, the cheapest and priciest region, the spread translated to a 1,000-GPU cluster per month, live GPU spot rental prices (Vast.ai, RunPod, AWS spot, Lambda reference) and grid stress (EIA-930). Assumptions are published in every response (GPU board kW x PUE x real-time $/MWh). Compute is becoming an economic resource with regional pricing; this is the price-discovery input a data-center siting, workload-scheduling, compute-procurement or compute-finance agent needs. $0.10 in USDC on Base or Solana via x402.
