mcp-carbon-intensity
Provides tools for accessing UK National Grid carbon intensity data, allowing AI agents to query real-time and forecasted carbon intensity of electricity generation.
Click on "Deploy Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@mcp-carbon-intensitywhat's the current carbon intensity in the UK?"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.

Quick Start
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"carbon-intensity": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/carbon-intensity/mcp"
}
}
}Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 853+ 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 Intensity data" })The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
