Support additional real-time carbon intensity data sources

Feature Suggestion

Support additional real-time carbon intensity data sources, such as

• WattTime API (free for North California, paid otherwise)
• UK National Grid's Carbon Intensity API (UK only, free)

Possible Implementation

Just an idea: the Go tool Grid Intensity CLI (by The Green Web Foundation) supports and wraps all three and might be useful here

Hi @peterzahemszky, thanks for submitting this issue! We think this is a great idea. Just for some context, we have considered WattTime, but for a number of reasons we were not able to come to an agreement to allow for access to developer support. Happy to revisit this, and definitely open to brining in the UK National Grid data as well. Would you be interested in working on this at all? I can go ahead and add the "seeking contributor" label for the time being.
