data

data_centre_market_overview

Dated overview of a European data-centre market: how many data-centre projects of 5 MW or more our pipeline tracker lists and how many are permitted or being built, who develops the most of them, whether new grid connections are paused, rationed or conditional in that country, the grid carbon intensity and power price this hour, and how many data-centre rules apply. Use for questions like "data centres in Germany", "Frankfurt data centre market", "who is building data centres in Spain". Metros: London, Frankfurt, Paris, Amsterdam, Dublin, Milan, Madrid. Countries: United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Spain, France, Finland, Netherlands, Ireland, Norway, Sweden, Greece, Poland, Denmark, Portugal, Belgium, Switzerland, Czechia, Croatia, Estonia, Romania, Austria, Lithuania, Hungary, Latvia.

data_centre_rules

The national and EU rules for building and running a data centre in one European country (energy efficiency reporting, waste heat, permitting, grid), each with its status, who it applies to and the next date that matters, plus upcoming deadlines. Countries: Germany, France, Ireland, Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Poland, United Kingdom, Belgium, Czechia, Portugal, Switzerland, Norway, Greece, Austria, Hungary, Croatia, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Romania, Bulgaria, Slovakia, Slovenia, Cyprus, Malta.

grid

grid_carbon_and_price_now

This hour's grid carbon intensity (gCO2/kWh), renewable share and day-ahead power price for a European market, the cleanest window in the next hours and its rank among 15 markets. Without a market: all markets ranked cleanest first. Markets: Germany, United Kingdom, France, Netherlands, Ireland, Italy (North), Spain, Poland, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland, Norway (NO2), Sweden (SE3), Denmark (DK1), Finland.

grid_connection_status

Where in Europe new grid connections for data centres are paused, rationed, conditional or congested, by country, with the measure's name, what it applies to and when it started. Without a country: the whole ranking. Use for questions like "where can I still connect a data centre to the grid in Europe", "is Ireland's grid moratorium still in force".

ScienceShot data-centre intelligence — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can ScienceShot data-centre intelligence do?

It exposes 5 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: data_centre_market_overview, data_centre_rules, grid_carbon_and_price_now, grid_connection_status, search_scienceshot. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

What is ScienceShot data-centre intelligence mostly used for?

Its tools cluster around data and grid. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.

Is ScienceShot data-centre intelligence working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 453 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect ScienceShot data-centre intelligence?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does ScienceShot data-centre intelligence need an API key?

No. ScienceShot data-centre intelligence completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 5 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is ScienceShot data-centre intelligence?

It answers our handshake in 453 ms on average, which is faster than 26% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
