compare

compare_markets

Compares the current electricity price across every covered European market, sorted cheapest first by all-in price. All figures are EUR per kWh so markets are directly comparable. The snapshot is refreshed at most hourly (see asOfUtc) and uses the current hour's average price. All-in = variable household price per kWh: spot + energy tax + per-kWh grid fee + VAT. Fixed monthly charges (grid capacity, tax credits) are excluded. Spot = wholesale day-ahead price.

current

get_current_price

Gets the electricity price for the current delivery period (15- or 60-minute slot) in one market: the all-in household price and the wholesale spot price, per kWh, in the market's own currency and in EUR. All-in = variable household price per kWh: spot + energy tax + per-kWh grid fee + VAT. Fixed monthly charges (grid capacity, tax credits) are excluded. Spot = wholesale day-ahead price.

markets

list_markets

Lists every European electricity market (bidding zone) SpotWave covers, with its code, display name and billing currency. Use the code (e.g. "NL", "DE", "SE3", "NO1", "DK1", "ITN") as the `market` argument of the other tools. Countries split into several zones (Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Italy) have one code per zone.

prices

get_prices

Gets one day's electricity prices for a market as hourly averages (normally 24 rows; 23 or 25 on daylight-saving change days), with the day's min, max and average and the cheapest/most expensive hour. Days are day-ahead delivery days in Central European time (Europe/Amsterdam, CET/CEST); hour starts are given in that local time. Prices are per kWh in the market's own currency. Tomorrow's prices are published around 13:00 CET each day; before that, asking for "tomorrow" returns a not-yet-published message. All-in = variable household price per kWh: spot + energy tax + per-kWh grid fee + VAT. Fixed monthly charges (grid capacity, tax credits) are excluded. Spot = wholesale day-ahead price.
