## Description

Imagine you are trying to track electricity prices across sixteen different countries. Usually, that involves jumping between dashboards, downloading CSVs, and trying to line up data from different bidding zones. It is a mess. This connector changes that by letting your AI agent do the digging for you. You can ask about day-ahead clearing prices, look at yearly price trends, or check transmission capacities between regions without ever leaving your chat window. If you are trying to understand market depth, you can pull auction volumes or see scheduled physical power transfers. It even handles the technical stuff like flow-based constraints for the Core and Nordic domains. Because Vinkius hosts and manages over 4,000 Connectors, you can connect once to get this and every other tool in the catalog instantly. Your agent becomes a power market analyst that can spot trends, check forecasts, and verify your data subscriptions on the fly. It turns a manual data-gathering slog into a quick conversation.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What's the price for Norway zone NO1 and Sweden SE3 for tomorrow?
```

**Response:** 
```
I have retrieved the day-ahead clearing prices for NO1 and SE3. 

| Zone | Avg Price (EUR/MWh) | Peak Price | 
| :--- | :--- | :--- | 
| **Norway NO1** | 42.15 | 67.80 (17:00-18:00) | 
| **Sweden SE3** | 39.20 | Converging off-peak | 

The spread between the two zones is approximately **2.95 EUR/MWh**. Would you like me to check the transmission capacity between these two zones as well?
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Show me the capacity from Denmark DK1 to Germany DE-LU today.
```

**Response:** 
```
Here is the Available Transmission Capacity (ATC) from DK1 to DE-LU:

* **Off-peak Capacity:** 1,700 MW
* **Peak Capacity:** 1,200 MW (08:00-20:00)
* **Current Utilization:** ~78%

I can also pull the actual auction flows for this corridor if you want to see the scheduled transfers against this capacity.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Compare yearly prices for Finland and the Baltic states for the last two years.
```

**Response:** 
```
I have pulled the yearly aggregate data for the requested zones:

* **Finland (FI):** 2024: 51.30 EUR/MWh $
ightarrow$ 2025: 43.80 EUR/MWh (**-14.6%**)
* **Estonia (EE):** 62.10 $
ightarrow$ 48.90 EUR/MWh (**-21.3%**)
* **Latvia (LV):** 59.40 $
ightarrow$ 47.20 EUR/MWh
* **Lithuania (LT):** 58.80 $
ightarrow$ 46.50 EUR/MWh

All Baltic zones have converged closer to Finnish levels over this period. Should I get the volume data to see if consumption patterns shifted?
```
