Run a wildlife curtailment on the schedule set by the permit. Operations gets the hours, trading gets the
cost, settlement gets the payment treatment, and compliance gets the record for the filing.

Every summer night, the turbines on this ridge go quiet for the bats. The permit says so. Operations
writes down the hours, by hand, by headlight. Trading finds the gap the next morning. The lost hours had
a price, and nobody told them what it was. Settlement has to decide whether the landowner gets paid for
hours that never ran. And compliance owes the state a report on all of it, built months later, from
whatever got written down.
In Flux Energy, the quiet hours are one record. What kind, when it started, when it ended, which turbines, how
much energy and what it was worth that night, written once against the turbines' own signal. Operations
sees the hours already counted. Trading sees what the night cost, no spreadsheet. Settlement decides, on
the event itself, whether it enters the royalty, and the landowner sees the same line. And when the state
report comes due, the deadline was already tracked, with every night already under it.
Five fifty-two. The bats are down, the ridge comes back, and the yard below it never stopped. One night.
One record. Four desks that agree.
