How this service works
Live wholesale electricity prices, demand, and generation mix across 25 grids in the US, UK, Australia, and Europe. Pay-per-call API access from $0.001.
Output
Returns a JSON object with a data array of timestamped demand readings (Unix seconds timestamp, numeric value, and unit such as GBP/MWh or equivalent), the zone identifier, count of rows returned, metric name ('demand'), license information, and attribution string.
Example use cases
Real-time demand monitoring for energy dashboard
“Show me the current electricity demand for the CAISO zone in California — I want the most recent readings from the past 30 minutes.”
Cross-zone demand comparison for energy analyst
“Get me electricity demand data for both PJM and MISO over the last two hours so I can compare how they're tracking today.”
Alert system for grid stress detection
“Fetch the latest electricity demand readings for the GB grid — I need to check if demand has spiked in the last 15 minutes and trigger an alert if it has.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.grid-hub.app/v1/demand/%7Bzone%7DWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need live or near-real-time electricity demand data for a specific grid zone across the US, UK, Australia, or Europe. It is especially suited for monitoring applications, energy dashboards, or alerting systems that need sub-hourly demand readings. Prefer this over the historical endpoint when you need current conditions rather than long-run time series analysis. The sample=true parameter allows free exploration without payment credentials.
Side effects
- Invalid zone identifier returns an error — only the 25 enumerated zone IDs are accepted
- Time window producing more than 5000 rows may be truncated or require pagination via start/end/limit parameters
- Missing x402 payment header results in 402 Payment Required response (use sample=true for a free truncated preview)
- Very recent timestamps may have no data yet due to publication lag from grid operators
- Start timestamp after end timestamp returns an empty or error response
