Before you connect

Questions about OpenElectricity (OpenNEM).

The practical details behind the request, access and result.

Can I use the AEMO Australian Energy MCP to see real-time electricity prices?

Yes, you can use it to see live spot prices for various Australian regions, including New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia, and Tasmania.

Does the AEMO Australian Energy MCP cover all Australian states?

It covers the major Australian electricity markets, including the NEM and WEM, providing data across the primary states and territories.

How can the AEMO Australian Energy MCP help with sustainability reporting?

It allows you to pull real-time renewable proportions and specific emissions data for energy facilities, making it easier to track carbon footprints.

Can I see which power stations are using solar or wind energy?

Yes, you can query specific facility data to see the generation output and fuel types for various power stations and solar farms.

Is there a way to check pollution levels for specific energy facilities?

The Connector can retrieve pollution and emissions data from the National Pollutant Inventory for specific facilities, including NOx and SO2 levels.

Can the AEMO Australian Energy MCP help me find the best time to charge my EV?

It can help you identify periods of low wholesale prices and high renewable proportions, which are often the most cost-effective times to charge.

What Australian regions/states are covered in the NEM data?

The National Electricity Market (NEM) covers five regions: New South Wales (NSW1), Victoria (VIC1), Queensland (QLD1), South Australia (SA1), and Tasmania (TAS1). The API also supports the Wholesale Electricity Market (WEM) for Western Australia. Data is available at both the national aggregate level and broken down by individual region.

How do I get an API token for OpenElectricity?

Visit the OpenElectricity developer portal at https://openelectricity.org.au/content/developers and sign up for a free Community plan. You'll receive a Bearer token that you can paste into the credential field. The Community plan provides generous rate limits suitable for individual use and research. Higher-tier plans (Pro, Academic, Enterprise) are available for commercial applications.

Can I track the percentage of renewable energy in real-time?

Yes! Use the get_renewable_proportion capability to fetch the current percentage of electricity generation coming from renewable sources (solar, wind, hydro, battery) versus fossil fuels (coal, gas). You can query this at 5-minute intervals for live tracking, or aggregate to hourly, daily, or monthly views. The get_network_by_fueltech capability also provides a detailed breakdown showing each technology's contribution separately.

What time intervals are available for querying historical data?

The API supports multiple time granularities: 5m (5-minute intervals, most granular), 1h (hourly), 1d (daily), 7d (weekly), 1M (monthly), 3M (quarterly), 1y (yearly), season (seasonal aggregation), and fy (financial year). You can specify date ranges using date_start and date_end parameters in ISO format. Historical data extends back several years for most metrics.
