Product FAQ

Is this eGRID emissions API live?

No. This is a product page for reviewing the proposed response shape, source coverage, and buyer fit.

Would it certify carbon accounting or ESG scores?

No. The proposed product would normalize public EPA eGRID records and source links only. Buyers remain responsible for carbon accounting, ESG, regulatory, procurement, and offset decisions.
