SpotWave MCP

An official MCP server provided by SpotWave that allows AI agents to retrieve live and historical day-ahead electricity prices for over 40 European markets. It exposes tools to list markets, get current prices, fetch price history, and compare markets, all without requiring an API key.

Endpoint and access

No sign-in to connect and list tools. Individual tools may still need a vendor account, credentials, or permissions; check the documented prerequisites.

compare_markets — Compare all markets
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

Compares the current electricity price across every covered European market, sorted cheapest first by all-in price. All figures are EUR per kWh so markets are directly comparable. The snapshot is refreshed at most hourly (see asOfUtc) and uses the current hour's average price. All-in = variable household price per kWh: spot + energy tax + per-kWh grid fee + VAT. Fixed monthly charges (grid capacity, tax credits) are excluded. Spot = wholesale day-ahead price.

list_markets — List electricity markets
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

Lists every European electricity market (bidding zone) SpotWave covers, with its code, display name and billing currency. Use the code (e.g. "NL", "DE", "SE3", "NO1", "DK1", "ITN") as the `market` argument of the other tools. Countries split into several zones (Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Italy) have one code per zone.

get_current_price — Current electricity price
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

Gets the electricity price for the current delivery period (15- or 60-minute slot) in one market: the all-in household price and the wholesale spot price, per kWh, in the market's own currency and in EUR. All-in = variable household price per kWh: spot + energy tax + per-kWh grid fee + VAT. Fixed monthly charges (grid capacity, tax credits) are excluded. Spot = wholesale day-ahead price.

get_prices — Hourly electricity prices for a day
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

Gets one day's electricity prices for a market as hourly averages (normally 24 rows; 23 or 25 on daylight-saving change days), with the day's min, max and average and the cheapest/most expensive hour. Days are day-ahead delivery days in Central European time (Europe/Amsterdam, CET/CEST); hour starts are given in that local time. Prices are per kWh in the market's own currency. Tomorrow's prices are published around 13:00 CET each day; before that, asking for "tomorrow" returns a not-yet-published message. All-in = variable household price per kWh: spot + energy tax + per-kWh grid fee + VAT. Fixed monthly charges (grid capacity, tax credits) are excluded. Spot = wholesale day-ahead price.

Connect from your client

Each snippet registers the same endpoint; pick the client you use.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers the remote server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.
Claude Code configuration
claude mcp add --transport http spotwave-mcp https://spotwave.eu/api/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).
Codex configuration
codex mcp add spotwave-mcp --url https://spotwave.eu/api/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable spotwave-mcp in your MCP settings.
Cursor configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "spotwave-mcp": {
      "url": "https://spotwave.eu/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure).
Cline configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "spotwave-mcp": {

    }
  }
}

VS Code

Merge this server into .vscode/mcp.json. Use MCP: List Servers to start spotwave-mcp and inspect its tools.
VS Code configuration
{
  "servers": {
    "spotwave-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://spotwave.eu/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Gemini CLI

Run this once. It writes .gemini/settings.json in the current project; pass --scope user for ~/.gemini/settings.json.
Gemini CLI configuration
gemini mcp add --transport http spotwave-mcp https://spotwave.eu/api/mcp

Claude Desktop

Merge this into claude_desktop_config.json (macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/, Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\), then restart Claude Desktop.
Claude Desktop configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "spotwave-mcp": {
      "url": "https://spotwave.eu/api/mcp"
    }

}

Windsurf

Merge this into ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, then refresh MCP in Cascade. Windsurf remote servers use serverUrl, not url.
Windsurf configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "spotwave-mcp": {
      "serverUrl": "https://spotwave.eu/api/mcp"
    }
