Open Data – Unlocking transparency for energy markets

Energy markets rely on trust, efficiency, and timely information. At eSett, we see transparency as a cornerstone of a well-functioning market. That’s why we offer an Open Data service designed to make settlement-related data accessible to everyone.

eSett’s Open Data includes both a web application and an API interface, offering flexible options for different needs. In addition to raw data, the application features easily adjustable and user-friendly figures and graphs, making it simple to visualize and interpret information. Our goal is to provide fast and reliable access to data that supports analysis and operational decisions. By using Open Data service, you can identify trends and anomalies early, meet reporting requirements, and improve processes in a structured way.
