Why we build an engine to predict the future of the electricity grid
Our platform is your single source of truth for grid emissions world wide, no need for additional data sources or signals.

The big picture
We are excited to announce the latest feature addition to Electricity Maps’ API: 72-hour grid forecasts for flow-traced carbon intensity, renewable energy share (RE%), and power mix signals are now available for 100+ zones on the API.
As electricity grids are now powered with cleaner but also more variable sources, consumers have the ability to become active participants in decarbonization. For example, in California, the emissions associated with charging an electric vehicle can differ by a factor of two depending on whether one charges during hours when the electricity supply is cleanest versus when it is most carbon-intensive.
