Install
git clone https://github.com/pipeworx-io/mcp-carbonThis server has no ConduID identity, so agent calls to it are not receipted. Pin the version you install and review the source before granting it credentials.
Tools (5)
get_generation_mixCheck current UK electricity grid composition by source percentage (gas, coal, wind, solar, nuclear, hydro, biomass, imports). Use to understand real-time grid energy mix.
Parameters not published.
get_intensityCheck current UK electricity carbon intensity. Returns gCO2/kWh (forecast and actual) plus intensity level (very low to very high). Use to schedule energy-intensive tasks during low-carbon periods.
Parameters not published.
get_intensity_by_dateGet UK electricity carbon intensity for every 30-minute period on a specific date (e.g., "2024-01-15"). Returns gCO2/kWh forecast and actual. Use to identify lowest-carbon hours.
Parameters not published.
get_intensity_factorsCarbon intensity factors (gCO2/kWh) per fuel type used in the headline figures — e.g. Coal 937, Gas (Combined Cycle) 394, Nuclear 0, Wind 0, Solar 0.
Parameters not published.
get_regional_intensityCarbon intensity (forecast gCO2/kWh + index band) and generation mix for a specific Great Britain region. Pass "postcode" (UK outcode — first half of a postcode, e.g. "RG10") or "regionid" (1–17, e.g. 13 = London). Omit both for all regions at the current half-hour. Regional figures are forecast-only.
Parameters not published.

Quick Start
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"carbon": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/carbon/mcp"
}
}
}
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 250+ data sources:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Using with ask_pipeworx
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Carbon data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
