How do I get an EIA API Key?

You can register for a free API Key at the [**EIA Open Data portal**](https://www.eia.gov/opendata/register.php). Once registered, the key will be sent to your email address.

Is the data real-time or historical?

EIA provides both current energy statistics (updated daily or weekly) and extensive historical time-series data dating back several decades.

Does the integration cover global energy data?

This integration focuses on official U.S. domestic energy statistics as reported by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA). Some international import/export data is included where relevant to the U.S. market.

U.S. EIA Energy Data + Google ADK FAQ

Common questions about integrating U.S. EIA Energy Data MCP Server with Google ADK.

How does Google ADK connect to MCP servers?

Import the MCP toolset class and pass the server URL. ADK discovers and registers all tools automatically, making them available to your agent's tool-use loop.

Can ADK agents use multiple MCP servers?

Yes. Declare multiple MCP tool providers in your agent configuration. ADK merges all tool schemas and the agent can call tools from any server in a single turn.

Which Gemini models work best with MCP tools?

Gemini 2.0 Flash and Pro models both support function calling required for MCP tools. Flash is recommended for latency-sensitive use cases, Pro for complex reasoning.
