How it reaches your house.
Starting from Residential Electricity, we walked the supply graph hop by hop to the goods you buy and the companies you own. Each step is the engine’s reasoning, scored for confidence and cited where a source backs it.
First impact
Residential Electricity →Shortage riskLarge Power Transformers (LPTs) & Generator Step-Up Units
The emergency order bans certain foreign-made bulk-power system equipment, and large transformers/generator step-up units are critical grid components, so their available supply tightens.
78% confidenceElectric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) →Shortage riskThe emergency is aimed at the U.S. power grid and could tighten electricity availability or disrupt operations, so ERCOT's electricity input faces some shortage risk.
69% confidenceHop 2
Electricity (Grid Power) →Shortage riskThe declaration is explicitly about U.S. power supply, so any electricity disruption maps directly to the United States' 28% share on this node.
78% confidenceElectricity (Grid Power) →Shortage riskIndustrial gases are marked as a critical electricity input with 0.95 dependency strength, so grid tightness would curtail output or raise costs.
73% confidenceLarge Power Transformers (LPTs) & Generator Step-Up Units →Shortage riskHop 3
United States →DelaysInterstate natural gas transmission pipelines
This input is 100% U.S.-sourced, so a nationwide U.S. power-supply emergency can slow domestic pipeline throughput and stretch lead times.
68% confidenceUnited States →DelaysJ-M Reef PGM Ore — Montana, USA (Sibanye-Stillwater)
With 100% of supply coming from the U.S., a national power emergency can interrupt mining and handling, delaying availability of this ore.

Interstate natural gas transmission pipelines →Shortage riskResidential gas use is a highly critical direct dependency on transmission capacity, so a pipeline shock would strongly reduce household gas availability.
93% confidenceJ-M Reef PGM Ore — Montana, USA (Sibanye-Stillwater) →Shortage riskJ-M Reef PGM Ore is a 100% share, sole-qualified input for Sibanye-Stillwater with an 84-month replacement lead time, so any disruption to the ore directly tightens supply to the company.
