Brent and TTF Energy Price API from JSON

An energy price API is a REST endpoint that returns oil, gas, power, and carbon prints as JSON. On Energy-API the Brent field is BRENT_CRUDE (USD) and Dutch TTF gas is TTF_GAS (EUR). Call GET /api/v1/latest with a comma-separated symbols list. Auth is the api_key query parameter — Bearer is not supported.

The official Latest sample is dated 2026-06-11 with Brent at 74.82 USD and TTF at 38.15 EUR. That is a docs fixture — copy the curl with your key for today’s print. If you pass base=USD, EUR symbols such as TTF_GAS and EUA_CO2 are excluded. Leave base off (the sample returns "base": "MIXED") when you need both. Docs: energy-api.com/docs. Starter is $19.99/mo (5,000 calls, 60/min, up to 5 symbols per request, 7-day trial with 50 calls).

Request: Brent, TTF, EUA, and Spanish day-ahead power

curl "https://energy-api.com/api/v1/latest?symbols=BRENT_CRUDE,TTF_GAS,EUA_CO2,OMIE_ES_DA&api_key=YOUR_KEY" \
  -H "Accept: application/json"

symbols is required. Optional category filters: gas, electricity, oil, coal, carbon, carbon_intensity.

Response: rates, dates, and currencies

Envelope from the official Latest docs (sample date 2026-06-11):

{
  "success": true,
  "date": "2026-06-11",
  "base": "MIXED",
  "rates": {
    "BRENT_CRUDE": 74.82,
    "TTF_GAS": 38.15,
    "EUA_CO2": 67.40,
    "OMIE_ES_DA": 82.30
  },
  "dates": {
    "BRENT_CRUDE": "2026-06-11",
    "TTF_GAS": "2026-06-11",
    "EUA_CO2": "2026-06-11",
    "OMIE_ES_DA": "2026-06-11"
  },
  "currencies": {
    "BRENT_CRUDE": "USD",
    "TTF_GAS": "EUR",
    "EUA_CO2": "EUR",
    "OMIE_ES_DA": "EUR"
  }
}

The top-level date is the most recent observation across the payload. Use dates.{SYMBOL} and currencies.{SYMBOL} per print — do not assume everything is USD. Historical example from the same docs: 2025-09-15 Brent 71.45 USD, TTF 36.20 EUR.

Python: latest Brent + TTF

Documented GET, mixed currency — do not pass base=USD:

import requests

r = requests.get(
    "https://energy-api.com/api/v1/latest",
    params={
        "symbols": "BRENT_CRUDE,TTF_GAS",
        "api_key": "YOUR_KEY",
    },
    headers={"Accept": "application/json"},
    timeout=30,
)
data = r.json()
print(data["rates"]["BRENT_CRUDE"], data["currencies"]["BRENT_CRUDE"])
print(data["rates"]["TTF_GAS"], data["currencies"]["TTF_GAS"])

Need Spanish day-ahead power or a carbon print on the same envelope? Add OMIE_ES_DA / EUA_CO2 to symbols (Starter allows 5 per request). Hourly power is a different path: GET /api/v1/electricity/hourly.
