entsoe-py 0.3.3

A python API wrapper for ENTSO-E

entsoe-py

Python client for the ENTSO-E API (european network of transmission system operators for electricity)

Documentation of the API found on https://transparency.entsoe.eu/content/static_content/Static%20content/web%20api/Guide.html

Installation

python3 -m pip install entsoe-py

Usage

The package comes with 2 clients:

• EntsoeRawClient: Returns data in its raw format, usually XML or a ZIP-file containing XML's
• EntsoePandasClient: Returns data parsed as a Pandas Series or DataFrame

EntsoeRawClient

from entsoe import EntsoeRawClient
import pandas as pd

client = EntsoeRawClient(api_key=<YOUR API KEY>)

start = pd.Timestamp('20171201', tz='Europe/Brussels')
end = pd.Timestamp('20180101', tz='Europe/Brussels')
country_code = 'BE'  # Belgium

# methods that return XML
client.query_day_ahead_prices(country_code, start, end)
client.query_load(country_code, start, end)
client.query_load_forecast(country_code, start, end)
client.query_wind_and_solar_forecast(country_code, start, end, psr_type=None)
client.query_generation_forecast(country_code, start, end)
client.query_generation(country_code, start, end, psr_type=None)
client.query_installed_generation_capacity(country_code, start, end, psr_type=None)
client.query_crossborder_flows(country_code_from, country_code_to, start, end)
client.query_imbalance_prices(country_code, start, end, psr_type=None)

# methods that return ZIP
client.query_unavailability_of_generation_units(country_code, start, end, docstatus=None)
client.query_withdrawn_unavailability_of_generation_units(country_code, start, end)

Dump result to file

xml_string = client.query_day_ahead_prices(country_code, start, end)
with open('outfile.xml', 'w') as f:
    f.write(xml_string)

zip_bytes = client.query_unavailability_of_generation_units(country_code, start, end)
with open('outfile.zip', 'wb') as f:
    f.write(zip_bytes)

Making another request

Is the API-call you want not in the list, you can lookup the parameters yourself in the API documentation

params = {
    'documentType': 'A44',
    'in_Domain': '10YBE----------2',
    'out_Domain': '10YBE----------2'
}
response = client._base_request(params=params, start=start, end=end)
print(response.text)

EntsoePandasClient

The Pandas Client works similar to the Raw Client, with extras:

• Time periods that span more than 1 year are automatically dealt with
• Requests of large numbers of files are split over multiple API calls

from entsoe import EntsoePandasClient
import pandas as pd

client = EntsoePandasClient(api_key=<YOUR API KEY>)

start = pd.Timestamp('20171201', tz='Europe/Brussels')
end = pd.Timestamp('20180101', tz='Europe/Brussels')
country_code = 'BE'  # Belgium

# methods that return Pandas Series
client.query_day_ahead_prices(country_code, start=start,end=end)
client.query_load(country_code, start=start,end=end)
client.query_load_forecast(country_code, start=start,end=end)
client.query_generation_forecast(country_code, start=start,end=end)

# methods that return Pandas DataFrames
client.query_wind_and_solar_forecast(country_code, start=start,end=end, psr_type=None)
client.query_generation(country_code, start=start,end=end, psr_type=None)
client.query_installed_generation_capacity(country_code, start=start,end=end, psr_type=None)
client.query_crossborder_flows('DE', 'DK', start=start,end=end)
client.query_imbalance_prices(country_code, start=start,end=end, psr_type=None)
client.query_unavailability_of_generation_units(country_code, start=start,end=end, docstatus=None)
client.query_withdrawn_unavailability_of_generation_units('DE', start=start,end=end)

Dump result to file

See a list of all IO-methods on https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/stable/io.html

ts = client.query_day_ahead_prices(country_code, start=start, end=end)
ts.to_csv('outfile.csv')
