electricitymaps_carbon_intensity

Carbon intensity (gCO2/kWh) for a grid zone now — the live climate cost of a kWh drawn from the local grid. Pass a zone code (e.g. "US-CAL-CISO", "DE", "FR", "GB") or lat+lon. Example: electricitymaps

No parameters required.

Try it
electricitymaps_power_breakdown

Power generation mix for a zone — the latest breakdown of electricity by source (nuclear, wind, solar, hydro, coal, gas, ...) plus fossil-free and renewable percentages. Pass a zone code (e.g. "US-CAL

No parameters required.

Try it
electricitymaps_carbon_forecast

Carbon-intensity forecast for a zone — upcoming hourly gCO2/kWh predictions, useful for scheduling loads when the grid is cleanest. Requires a paid Electricity Maps plan. Pass a zone code (e.g. "US-CA

No parameters required.
