30 Day Carbon Intensity by GSP

Our 30 Day Carbon Intensity by GSP dataset provides information on the carbon impact of our Grid Supply Points based on the generation assets connected at each site. The dataset provides half hourly data in a 30 day window, with values for the power flow through the sites transformers totalled into one value, and a value for the carbon intensity of our site. We also provide the associated carbon intensity for the sites location from NESOs Carbon Intensity API.
