Aemo MCP server

aemo-mcp

mcp-name: io.ausdata/aemo-mcp

Ask Claude about Australia's electricity market and get real, current numbers — 5-minute spot prices, regional demand, generation by fuel, interconnector flows, rooftop solar — not "I don't have access to that data." This MCP server gives Claude (and other MCP clients like Cursor) live access to the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) NEMWEB feeds, with curated mappings for the most-asked indicators.

Hosted access? For cross-source queries, webhooks, an always-on REST API, and a uniform response envelope across all 9 sources, see ausdata.io — free tier available (500 calls/mo, no card).

Companion to abs-mcp (ABS macro stats), rba-mcp (RBA interest + FX rates), ato-mcp (ATO tax + ACNC charity), apra-mcp (banking + superannuation), aihw-mcp (health & welfare), asic-mcp (companies + financial advisers), and au-weather-mcp (Australian weather) — together they cover the most-asked Australian official data.

What you can ask

Once installed, your LLM can answer questions like:

Every answer comes with the interval timestamp (AEMO market time, UTC+10), units (MW, $/MWh), and a link back to the NEMWEB source. The MCP wraps NEMWEB's CSV/ZIP feeds and exposes them through 5 plain-English tools.

Add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claudedesktopconfig.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "aemo": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["--upgrade", "aemo-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Why --upgrade? uvx aemo-mcp (without the flag) uses whatever wheel

is cached and never adopts new PyPI releases on its own. --upgrade makes

uvx check PyPI on each launch and pull a newer release if one exists.

Recommended for everyone except offline-first / pinned-version workflows.

To verify which version is currently serving you, look at the

server_version field on any DataResponse.
