Gas Index (DCGI)

Data Center Gas Index (DCGI) — the per-US-state natural-gas suitability score. ★ WITHDRAWN 2026-08-08, RESTORED 2026-08-30 after all three defective terms were repaired: the 20-point interstate-share term was case-blind against EIA TYPEPIPE and scored ~0 for every state (122 -> 17,571 segments now counted); the price was chosen by a non-deterministic tie-break across the EIA industrial (PIN) and electric-power (PEU) series, which carry different margins; and nine states including Texas ran on a hardcoded cost constant because the price loader dropped them on a case-sensitive name lookup. ★ DO NOT COMPARE a DCGI figure published before 2026-08-08 with one published now — they are different indices; the full record is at /api/v1/dcgi/methodology under corrections. A state that cannot be priced comes back verdict UNSCORED with dcgi null and an unscored_reason, never a placeholder score, so treat UNSCORED as absence and not as a low score. gas_price_series names which EIA series answered each state. ★ STILL WITHDRAWN and NOT restored by this: every gas-fired $/MWh figure — a separate defect from the same audit. Use get_gas_intelligence for pipeline, operator and parent-midstream data.
Input schema
| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| state | string | no | US state abbreviation, e.g. TX, VA, AZ. Returns the DCGI score and verdict, plus `gas_price_series` naming which EIA series priced the state. A state that cannot be priced comes back verdict UNSCORED with dcgi null and an `unscored_reason` — absence, not a low score. Withdrawn 2026-08-08, restored 2026-08-30: do NOT compare against a figure published before 2026-08-08. Use get_gas_intelligence for the per-state pipeline and operator brief |
| limit | integer | no | Max results to return (1-500; default varies by tool) |
