Data catalogue & API
Coming soon
Official GB electricity data from Elexon, NESO, DESNZ and other public bodies, collected from each publisher's own API or file, normalised into one schema and refreshed as each publisher updates: every half hour for live market data, daily or less often for registers and annual tables. An API and bulk downloads are coming soon, under each publisher's licence, shown on every dataset. Sources without a published reuse licence will be listed but not served.
