entsoe-mcp
entsoe-mcp provides MCP tools to query the ENTSO-E Transparency Platform for European electricity data, including generation by type, system load, cross-border flows, and day-ahead prices. Data analysts, energy traders, and grid operators use it to fetch historical and real-time power system metrics for modeling, forecasting, and market analysis.
Overview
entsoe-mcp is an MCP server interfacing with the ENTSO-E Transparency Platform APIs. It delivers structured access to pan-European electricity network data, covering generation, consumption, transmission, and market information from 35+ countries.
Key Capabilities
- get_generation: Retrieves actual or planned electricity generation per production type (e.g., nuclear, wind, solar) for specific areas and time periods.
- get_load: Fetches electrical load (demand) data at country or bidding zone level, actual and forecasted.
- get_day_ahead_prices: Queries day-ahead market auction prices from EPEX, Nord Pool, and other exchanges.
- get_cross_border_flows: Accesses physical flow data between bidding zones or countries.
- get_wind_solar_forecast: Provides aggregated wind and solar production forecasts.
Use Cases
- An energy trader calls get_day_ahead_prices and get_cross_border_flows to identify arbitrage opportunities between bidding zones like Germany and France.
- A renewable developer uses get_wind_solar_forecast and get_load to assess grid curtailment risks for new solar farms in Spain.
- A researcher aggregates get_generation data across Europe to analyze the 2022 gas crisis impact on fossil fuel dispatch.
- A grid operator monitors real-time get_load and get_generation for frequency control during peak winter demand.
Who This Is For
Energy data analysts extracting metrics for econometric models; power traders building algorithmic strategies; renewable project developers evaluating sites; policy researchers studying decarbonization trends; utility engineers integrating external data into SCADA systems.
