electricityMap – “The leading resource for electricity CO2 data. We provide actionable data quantifying how carbon intensive electricity is on an hourly basis across 50+ countries. The data can be accessed historically, in real time, or as a forecast for the next 24 hours. You can also explore the real time data on the electricityMap app…We’re on a mission to organise the world’s electricity data. Driven by the urgent need to get rid of all fossil fuels, the world is in the midst of the most profound transformation in humankind’s history. In the next decade, the transition to a low-carbon electricity system will require every organisation and government to understand and reduce their real electricity footprint. electricityMap’s mission is to organise the world’s electricity data to drive the transition towards a truly decarbonised electricity system…
- Get access to the carbon intensity (in gCO2eq/kWH) of electricity consumed in the region taking into account the full life-cycle of electricity production.
- Get access to the production and consumption breakdowns to understand the full flow and production of the origin of electricity.
- We collect data from all around the world and compute the data in an hourly resolution, allowing you to gain granular insights accounting for the variance of the grid.
- By using our flow-tracing methodology, we trace back the origin of electricity accounting for imports and exports. Read more…”
