## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need curated, trade-press-sourced news specifically about electric and gas utilities — rate cases, grid investment, load growth, IPPs, and resource planning — from trusted sources like PowerMag and T&D World. Prefer this over a general news search when domain specificity matters and you want pre-filtered energy industry coverage rather than noisy broad results.

## Known failure modes

- No results returned if freshness window is too narrow or search terms are too specific
- Invalid 'src' enum value returns an error
- 'limit' outside 1–50 range is rejected
