How to Use the AEMO Australian Energy MCP in Cursor
Build applications with live AEMO Australian Energy data inside Cursor.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect AEMO Australian Energy MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect AEMO Australian Energy to Cursor and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Inject grid data into your codebase
Use `get_market_data` to feed live spot prices and regional demand into your code files. Your agent uses these real responses to write functional logic rather than relying on static mock data. This keeps your energy-focused software in sync with current grid conditions. You spend less time updating test values and more time building features.
Query facility metrics for your project
Call `list_facilities` to find specific energy units based on their fuel technology or network status. This gives your agent the exact facility codes needed for deeper inspection. Once you have the code, use `get_facility_data` to pull the actual generation output. It makes your code documentation and internal tools far more accurate.
Visualize energy mix changes
Retrieve data on the renewable vs fossil fuel split using `get_network_by_fueltech`. You can write scripts in Cursor that process this data to show transition progress over time. Combine this with `list_metrics` to see what other data points you can pull. It turns your editor into a hub for energy market intelligence.
