Description
What happened?
WattTime just released a new version of their API.
https://watttime.org/data-science/release-notes/#:~:text=APIv3%20release
We’re excited to announce the release of our upgraded API (version 3). This new API brings many improvements including more intuitive and descriptive data delivery, error handling, and more. We are publishing data for 12 new countries which are only available in the new API. In addition to CO2, in the new API we also offer our Health Damage data signal which estimates the damage to human life and health caused by pollution from power plants. Our new coverage map shows the new countries we cover and where we offer each of our data signals.
This change needs to happen before June 2024 at which point the current version of the API will be out of service.
Transition Resources: We want this transition to be as easy as possible and worth the effort to upgrade. We’ve prepared a number of resources to guide you through the transition and help you get acquainted with the new API, new regions, and new signals.
