Day-Ahead Electricity Spot Price by Bidding Zone (Energy-Charts)

energycharts/eu-power-price

Day-ahead electricity spot prices in EUR per MWh for one bidding zone such as DE-LU (Germany and Luxembourg), as a series of prices with Unix timestamps in 15-minute steps. The response carries its own licence line: CC BY 4.0 from Bundesnetzagentur | SMARD.de. An unavailable bidding zone code returns a clear error. The upstream source is rate limited to very few requests per minute, so a busy period may answer rate limited. Energy-Charts data passed through unmodified and served by Eden Engine; not an official Energy-Charts.info product.
