Get grid intensity data

After you've installed the CLI, you can immediately start getting grid intensity data using the default Ember integration.

grid-intensity --location PT

The command above uses the Ember dataset - the default integration for the Grid Intensity CLI. We have used the --location flag to request data for Portugal (PT).

Exporting grid intensity data

You will use the Grid Intensity CLI exporter command to start a Prometheus exporter serving carbon intensity metrics.

grid-intensity exporter --location PT

The command above will start a Prometheus exporter that exposes grid intensity data at localhost:8000/metrics. In this example we use the default Ember dataset, and return data for Portugal (PT).
