GridHub provides live and historical electricity market data — wholesale prices, demand, generation mix, carbon intensity, interconnector flows and installed capacity — for 25 grid zones across the US, Europe, Great Britain and Australia, in one normalised JSON schema. Every response carries its source attribution and licence; repeat them when presenting data. Start with get_zone_brief for 'right now' questions and get_history for time series. Authentication: send 'Authorization: Bearer <ghk_key>' on the MCP connection (free key, 500 requests/day, instant email signup at https://grid-hub.app/developers), or pay per call with x402 (USDC on Base) via the X-PAYMENT header. With no credentials, data tools run in free sample mode: real, current data but truncated (history capped at 50 rows; brief returns one context block). Sample results are clearly marked.

list_zonesList the 25 electricity grid zones GridHub covers, with id, name, data source (EIA, ENTSO-E, NESO, AEMO), timezone, currency, licence and required attribution.
Inferred read-onlyget_statusIngestion health per source and zone: last successful fetch timestamp and last error, if any.
Inferred read-onlyget_latestThe most recent value of every metric one zone publishes (price, demand, carbon intensity, generation by fuel, interchange), each with unit and timestamp.
Inferred read-onlyget_zone_briefComposite, interpretation-ready snapshot of one zone: current price / demand / carbon intensity (strictly at-or-before now), each ranked against that zone's own last ~30 days (percentile, vs-median %, min/max, sample count and the actual data window), a 24h trend per metric, the full generation mix, and a one-sentence plain-English summary.
Inferred read-onlyget_historyTime series for one metric in one zone over a start/end window (Unix seconds).
Inferred read-onlyget_map_snapshotCurrent headline values for all 25 zones in one call — the cheapest way to compare zones (e.
