How this service works
Interpretation-ready snapshot of one electricity zone: current wholesale price and demand (plus carbon intensity for GB) each ranked against the zone's own trailing 30-day distribution, 24h trend, and a one-sentence summary. Use for 'is power cheap or expensive in {zone} right now'. Zone ids from /v1/zones.
Output
A structured snapshot containing current wholesale price, demand, and (for GB) carbon intensity, each with a percentile rank against the zone's trailing 30-day distribution, a 24-hour directional trend indicator, and a concise one-sentence natural language summary of overall grid conditions.
Example use cases
Smart appliance scheduling trigger
“Check if power is cheap in the ERCOT zone right now — tell me where current wholesale prices rank against the past 30 days so I can decide whether to run my EV charger.”
Carbon-aware compute timing in GB
“What's the current carbon intensity in the GB electricity grid, and how does it compare to the last month? I want to know if now is a relatively clean time to run a heavy workload.”
Energy trading desk morning briefing
“Give me a quick brief on PJM electricity conditions right now — is wholesale price high or low relative to the trailing 30 days, and what's the 24-hour trend?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.grid-hub.app/v1/brief/:zoneWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a quick, human-interpretable assessment of whether electricity is cheap, expensive, or stressed in a specific zone — especially when you want context (percentile rank, trend, summary sentence) rather than raw numbers. Prefer this over the raw metrics endpoint when the goal is decision-making or natural language reporting. Use the historical endpoint instead when you need time-series data over days or weeks.
Side effects
- Invalid or unsupported zone ID returns an error — use /v1/zones to retrieve valid zone identifiers
- Data may be temporarily unavailable if the upstream grid operator feed is delayed
- Payment failure (x402) if USDC balance is insufficient or payment header is missing
- Rate limiting if too many requests are made in a short window
