Ontario Generation by Fuel Type for a Day (IESO)

iesopublicreports/generation-by-fuel

Hourly electricity generation on the Ontario grid for one day, summed by fuel type, from the Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) Generator Output and Capability report. Give the date as YYYYMMDD; get, for each fuel type (nuclear, gas, hydro, wind, solar, biofuel, other), the number of generators, the day's energy in megawatt-hours, the hourly output in megawatts and the hourly capability in megawatts, plus the day's total. The IESO keeps about the last three months of daily files; an older date or one not yet published is refused by the source. Sums are computed by Eden Engine from the IESO's per-generator hourly file. IESO data subject to the IESO Terms of Use; served by Eden Engine; not an official IESO product.

// 1. search: find the tool
omnial_search({ query: "what you need" })

// 2. inspect: price and input schema
omnial_inspect({ tool: "iesopublicreports/generation-by-fuel" })

// 3. learn: read the usage guide at runtime
omnial_learn({ tool: "iesopublicreports/generation-by-fuel" })

// 4. run: price the exact call first, then run it
omnial_execute({ tool: "iesopublicreports/generation-by-fuel", input: { /* see input_schema */ }, dry_run: true })
omnial_execute({ tool: "iesopublicreports/generation-by-fuel", input: { /* ... */ } })

// 5. settle: the call is charged when it finishes, nothing to do
