ENTSO-E API Python Package
A Python library for accessing ENTSO-E Transparency Platform API endpoints.
Highlights
- Easy access to all ENTSO-E Transparency Platform API endpoints
- Well-documented, easy to use and highly consistent with the API
- Automatically splits up large requests into multiple smaller calls to the API
- Intelligent retry mechanism with exponential backoff for connection errors and service unavailability
- Returns meaningful error messages if something goes wrong
Install
Install the package from pypi using pip:
pip install entsoe-apy
Quick Start
API Key
You need an ENTSOE API Key (also called token) refer to the official documentation on how to obtain it. The package expects an environment variable called ENTSOE_API to be set with your API key. See Configuration for more details and options.
Query Day-Ahead Prices
The package structure mirrors the official ENTSO-E API docs. So for querying "12.1.D Energy Prices" we need the entsoe.Market module and use the EnergyPrices class.
After initializing the class, we can query the data using the query_data method.
from pandas import DataFrame
from entsoe.Market import EnergyPrices
from entsoe.utils import extract_records, add_timestamps
# Query energy prices
result = EnergyPrices(
in_domain="10YNL----------L", # Netherlands
out_domain="10YNL----------L",
period_start=202012312300,
period_end=202101022300,
).query_api()
# Convert to DataFrame-ready records
records = extract_records(result)
records = add_timestamps(records)
df = DataFrame(records)
| period_time_interval.start | time_series.period.point.position | time_series.period.point.price_amount | time_series.business_type | time_series.currency_unit_name | time_series.price_measure_unit_name | time_series.period.resolution |

The structure of the result object depends on the queried data. See the examples for more details.
