Price Chart

The price chart functionality enables you to demonstrate visually to your users the variance in the cost of their electricity and allow them to conciously change their consumption pattern to save on their electricity costs!

​
Setup Overview

1

Get Pricing Data

Call day-ahead-prices to retrieve the data for your chart mapping. This is available in 15-Minute or Hourly intervals at present.
2

Handle the response

Parse the response by deserializing the returned time-series data and transforming it into a normalized format suitable for chart rendering and optimization logic inputs.
3

Render the Stepline Graph

As energy prices change at specific timestamps, not continuously, a Stepline graph is the most suitable chart to represent the data.
If you would like to generate a personalized Working Price chart for your users, you can utilise the Pricing data from the metrics endpoint. See Day-Ahead Working Price for data retrieval guidance.
