How this service works
Current or forecast carbon intensity of the GB electricity grid in gCO2/kWh, with the generation fuel mix.
Output
Returns the current and/or forecast carbon intensity of the GB electricity grid in gCO2/kWh. Optionally includes a breakdown of the generation fuel mix (e.g. wind, solar, gas, nuclear, coal percentages). Results can be national or regional based on the outward postcode supplied.
Example use cases
EV charging carbon optimization
“Is this a good time to charge my electric car based on UK grid carbon intensity? Show me the current gCO2/kWh and what's generating the power so I can decide whether to wait.”
Regional green energy check
“Check the carbon intensity of the electricity grid for postcode EC1A right now — I want to know how clean the power is in that area, with the fuel mix breakdown.”
Sustainability dashboard monitoring
“Fetch the current GB electricity grid carbon intensity and the full generation fuel mix — I need to log this to our sustainability dashboard every hour.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://fittings.sh/v1/energy/uk-carbon-intensityWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need real-time or forecast carbon intensity data specifically for the Great Britain electricity grid. It is the right choice for sustainability calculations, EV charging optimization, demand-shifting logic, or any application where knowing the greenness of UK electricity at a national or postcode level matters. It differs from weather or general energy APIs by being GB-grid-specific and denominated in gCO2/kWh.
Side effects
- Invalid or non-GB postcode returns an error or falls back to national data
- Carbon Intensity upstream API unavailable results in a 502 or timeout
- Malformed query parameters return a 400 bad request
- Forecast data may not be available at all times, returning only current intensity
