How to Use the Nord Pool MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I connect the Nord Pool MCP server to Cursor?

Create a .cursor/mcp.json file in your project's root directory. Add the server details there, and Cursor's agent will automatically detect and use the tools. That's it.

Q: How do I check cross-border flows from Nord Pool inside Cursor?

Instruct the agent to use getauctionflows or getscheduledphysicalflows with source and destination codes. For example: 'Get the auction flows from DE-LU to FR for last Tuesday'.

Q: Is it possible to check my Nord Pool subscription status with Cursor?

Yes, it's a good first step. Ask the agent to run getusersubscriptions. This confirms your API key is working and shows which data sets you can access before you start building.

Inject live Nord Pool energy data directly into your code with Cursor's agent and build trading models faster.

Build Models with Real Market Data

Stop mocking API calls. Ask Cursor's agent to 'get the day-ahead prices for Finland and Estonia'. It will use the `get_day_ahead_prices` tool and write the Python or JS code to fetch and parse that data. The code it generates already contains the real price data from that query. You go from a question to a working, data-filled script in one step. It's perfect for calibrating trading algorithms or backtesting strategies.

Code Against Live Grid Capacity

Write risk models that understand real-world grid limits. Tell your agent to 'find the transmission capacity between NO2 and SE3'. It will call `get_transmission_capacities` and generate code that uses the actual ATC value. This isn't a stub or a placeholder. You get working code that reflects the current state of the grid, letting you build more accurate arbitrage and congestion models without leaving your editor.

Automate Data Sourcing with the Cursor MCP Server

Configure the Nord Pool MCP Server once in your project's `mcp.json`. Now your agent can access all ten tools to pull whatever data you need. Ask it to 'get consumption forecasts and auction volumes for Germany'. Cursor will call `get_consumption_forecasts` and `get_auction_volumes` and structure the output for you. This turns hours of data gathering and API wrangling into a single plain-English request.

Setup guide

Set up Nord Pool MCP in Cursor

Prerequisites

Cursor installed (macOS, Windows, or Linux)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP Settings

Go to Cursor Settings → MCP or open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and search for "MCP: Add Server".
2

Add the Nord Pool MCP

Cursor will create or open .cursor/mcp.json in your project root. Paste the JSON snippet on the right. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Enable Agent mode

Open Composer (Cmd+I / Ctrl+I) and switch to Agent mode using the dropdown at the top. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode.
4

Verify the connection

Ask Cursor something like "List my recent Nord Pool transactions." If the MCP tools are loaded correctly, Cursor will call the Nord Pool tools automatically. You can also check Settings → MCP for a green status indicator.

.cursor/mcp.json

Common questions about Nord Pool MCP in Cursor

Create a `.cursor/mcp.json` file in your project's root directory. Add the server details there, and Cursor's agent will automatically detect and use the tools. That's it.

Yes. Just ask the agent, 'What were the auction volumes for NO1, NO2, and NO5 yesterday?' Cursor will use the `get_auction_volumes` tool and can either show you the raw data or write code that incorporates it for you.

Instruct the agent to use `get_auction_flows` or `get_scheduled_physical_flows` with source and destination codes. For example: 'Get the auction flows from DE-LU to FR for last Tuesday'.

Yes, it's a good first step. Ask the agent to run `get_user_subscriptions`. This confirms your API key is working and shows which data sets you can access before you start building.

It only handles the specific energy market queries you send, like requests for `get_consumption_forecasts`. Your source code, project files, and other private data are never touched or seen by this MCP server. The tool requests are isolated transactions for public market information.
