Shared Energy Data Access

Commit the MCP config to `.vscode/mcp.json` and let every developer access `get_renewable_energy_farm_data`. The entire team gets standardized, reliable hourly energy forecasts. This consistency is huge for large-scale projects where different team members need the same data inputs.

Team Weather Alert Management

Developers can use `get_weather_alerts` to ensure asset protection planning. The tool pulls critical advisories into the workspace, making safety checks part of the standard development cycle. It’s a reliable way to enforce compliance requirements across multiple repositories.

Structured Data for Site Analysis

Use `get_wind_data` and `get_solar_irradiance_data` together in your team's workflow. The Copilot agent can pull wind speed/direction alongside historical solar data, creating a unified assessment report. This means site feasibility checks are handled consistently across the entire engineering department.
