# Netzhandwerker EV Charging Bundle

> Netzhandwerker EV Charging Bundle is a paid API for AI agents from energy.netzhandwerker.de, paid per call via x402, $0.005/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Returns optimized EV charging windows, live electricity prices, grid load, renewable share, carbon intensity, and battery arbitrage signals for electric vehicle charging decisions.

## Facts

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability netzhandwerker-ev-charging-bundle-77b9fe89 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What's the best time to charge my EV tonight — I need to get from 20% to 80% on a 77 kWh battery, ideally using the cheapest and greenest electricity available on the German grid?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an AI agent needs to make or recommend EV charging decisions based on real-time and forecast energy market data — especially when cost optimization, carbon minimization, or grid-friendly charging are goals. Prefer over generic electricity price APIs when the use case is specifically EV charging scheduling, battery arbitrage, or ESG-compliant charging reporting.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported grid zone returns 400 with zone error
- Missing required charging parameters (battery size, target SoC) returns 422
- Grid data temporarily unavailable returns 503
- Stale price data if energy market feed is delayed returns degraded response with timestamp warning
- Payment not included or insufficient returns 402

## How this service works

Live electricity prices, carbon intensity, grid load, renewable share, flexibility windows, battery arbitrage, trading signals and ESG reporting for autonomous agents.

## Output

Returns a bundle of EV-charging-optimized data including ranked charging windows with price per kWh, carbon intensity (gCO2/kWh), renewable energy share (%), current and forecast grid load, flexibility scores indicating demand-response opportunities, and ESG metrics for reporting purposes.
