It appears X has changed how API posting credits work again and my automated semi-hourly Alberta grid update posts have stopped due to depleted API credits.
The account itself is fine, but the automation system now requires separate paid API credits beyond a Premium subscription.
I’m looking into options and whether the account may qualify as a public utility/informational service, but for now the automated updates will be interrupted.
Depending on how this evolves, I may shift more of the updates toward Facebook, Bluesky or Blogger instead.
I’ll continue posting manually when possible. Thanks to everyone that follows and shares the data.

At this moment, based on the current generation and installed capacities, Alberta would need all of the following additional resources to fully replace all non-renewable electricity generation:
18361 - Wind Turbines
plus
24594053 - Solar Panels
plus
4.0 - Site C Dams
This is:
11 times more wind generation
7 times more solar generation
5 times more hydro generation
