Happy to share that I've just used the Carbon Intensity #API from the Electricity System Operator (#ESO) for Great Britain to create an innovative end-to-end solution with just a few lines of #Python and some pocket money hardware. My non-smart washing machine is now retrofitted with a M5Stack M5Paper #eInk display to provide a readout of electricity supply carbon intensity, enabling me to operate it only when the supply intensity is moderate to low. For more details about the #API, see https://lnkd.in/eKu7edTK from National Grid.
This is only a simple solution, so I'm very excited to see what more powerful applications of #APIs there will be in the near future and what the Railway System Operator, and others, can provide with their endpoints. Network Rail #ENRICH
