About

Electricity Maps supplies grid carbon intensity, electricity mix and related signals by zone or coordinates. API tokens and signal subscriptions are required after a 14-day trial. Zone coverage, history and forecasts vary by plan, and some values are estimated.

What you can do with it

  • Show the current grid carbon intensity for a zone or coordinates
  • Schedule flexible electricity use against a carbon-intensity forecast
  • Retrieve historical grid carbon intensity and electricity-generation mix

Get started

  1. Start an API trial and get an API token
  2. Verify coverage for your zone, signal and desired time horizon
  3. Request a v4 signal with the auth-token header

Example

curl "https://api.electricitymaps.com/v4/carbon-intensity/latest?zone=DE" \
  -H "auth-token: $ELECTRICITY_MAPS_API_TOKEN"
