apg-info adapter for ioBroker

This adapter provides the peak-times for the Austrian Power Grid (Austrian values only!), where power consumption shall be avoided. In addition the adapter provides the PHELIX Day-Ahead (EPEX Spot) prices for Austria, Swiss and Germany (configure in Adapter settngs). Provider fee, tax, grid costs can be added optionally in the config (tab Calculation).
[..].marketprice.today.jsonChart and [..].marketprice.tomorrow.jsonChart can be used with https://github.com/Scrounger/ioBroker.vis-materialdesign#json-chart.
With the standard-configuration the adapter runs at 00:00, 13:00 and 15.00 o'clock. It's highly recommended not to remove the run at 00:00, otherwise the day-change (tomorrow --> today) will nit work propperly.

This adapter uses Sentry libraries to automatically report exceptions and code errors to the developers. For more details and for information how to disable the error reporting see Sentry-Plugin Documentation!

Requires

* Node.js 20 or higher
* ioBroker host (js-controller) 5.0 or higher

Quarter-hourly market prices

These market prices are collected by Exaa and as backup by Entsoe. Therefore is recommended to request an Entsoe token if quarter-hourly prices are configured.

Swiss market

For the swiss market a token from entsoe.eu is needed. Please add your token to the adapter configuration in the tab "ENTSOE TOKEN".

How to get an Entsoe token

Register at the page https://transparency.entsoe.eu/ and send afterwards and email to transparency@entsoe.eu asking for RESTFUL API access for the email address you registered.
