Tools: list_zones get_status get_latest get_zone_brief get_history get_map_snapshot
list_zones | List the 25 electricity grid zones GridHub covers, with id, name, data source (EIA, ENTSO-E, NESO, AEMO), timezone, currency, licence and required attribution. Free, no credentials needed. Call this first if you are unsure which zone id to use. params: none |
get_status | Ingestion health per source and zone: last successful fetch timestamp and last error, if any. Free. Use it to explain stale or missing values before drawing conclusions from them. params: none |
get_latest | The most recent value of every metric one zone publishes (price and demand for every zone; generation by fuel for GB and US-CAISO; carbon intensity for GB; interchange where available), each with unit and timestamp. This is the right tool for 'what is the price/demand/carbon intensity in X right now'. Note: some European sources publish day-ahead prices, so the price timestamp can be up to ~36h in params: zone*, api_key |
get_zone_brief | Composite, interpretation-ready snapshot of one zone: current price / demand / carbon intensity where published (strictly at-or-before now), each ranked against that zone's own last ~30 days (percentile, vs-median %, min/max, sample count and the actual data window), a 24h trend per metric, the generation mix where published (GB, US-CAISO), and a one-sentence plain-English summary. Best tool for q params: zone*, api_key |
get_history | Time series for one metric in one zone over a start/end window (Unix seconds). Rows are returned oldest-first and the 'limit' truncates from the OLDEST end, so a small limit over a wide window returns old data, not recent data — for 'the latest N points' set start close to now, or use get_latest / get_zone_brief for current values. Default window is the last 24h (last ~400 days for capacity, which params: zone*, metric*, start, end, limit, api_key |
get_map_snapshot | Current headline values for all 25 zones in one call — the cheapest way to compare zones (e.g. 'which European zone has the lowest price right now', 'rank US ISOs by demand'). Rebuilt every 5 minutes. Authentication: send 'Authorization: Bearer <ghk_key>' on the MCP connection (free key, 500 requests/day, instant email signup at https://grid-hub.app/developers), or pay per call with x402 (USDC on params: api_key |
Entries describe changes in tool definitions. They are not statements about a server, its quality or its author. The grade measures how the tool definitions fit model providers (token cost, schema compatibility, confusable names) as scored by the ToolFit engine at the time of the listing. JSON: append .json.
