UK Carbon Intensity — 24-Hour Forecast

Get the 24-hour ahead forecast of UK national carbon intensity from the National Grid ESO. Returns up to 48 half-hour periods (fully covering the next 24 hours), each with a forecast intensity in gCO2/kWh and a qualitative index (very low / low / moderate / high / very high). Use the optional periods parameter to limit results (e.g. periods=6 for 3 hours ahead). Ideal for scheduling carbon-intensive workloads, EV charging, or energy storage dispatch at the lowest-carbon future window. CC BY 4.0, no upstream cost.
