Eurostat

Live

EU official statistics — energy balances, gas and electricity prices, and supply/demand by member state.

What is Eurostat?

Eurostat is the European Union's official statistics agency. This connector queries its public JSON-stat dissemination API (no auth) for energy data: complete energy balances (nrg_bal_c — production, imports, exports, gross inland consumption by fuel and country), gas and electricity consumer prices (nrg_pc_203 / nrg_pc_204, by consumption band and tax component), and a generic getDataset passthrough for any Eurostat dataset with arbitrary dimension filters. Results are flattened from JSON-stat into tabular rows (geo, time, other dimensions, value) with a dimension legend. Complements EIA and ENTSO-E with pan-EU coverage. Toggle on and use — no setup needed.
