Connect via MCP

Supported clients

We use OAuth 2.0 Dynamic Client Registration for secure authentication, making the Power Tariffs MCP compatible with any client supporting this industry-standard flow.

Getting Started

For a step-by-step walkthrough of how to connect to a Remote MCP Server please see the official documentation. For completing the process you’ll need 2 things:

An Engrate Early Access account
The Remote MCP Server URLs which are:

https://docs.engrate.io/mcp
https://api.engrate.io/v1/mcp/power-tariffs
https://api.engrate.io/v1/mcp/electricity-area-map

Example: Connecting Claude to Engrate Integrations

As an administrator of your company’s organization, you can add custom connectors to enable your teams to access all Engrate integrations available to your organization. For complete details on custom connectors, refer to the official Anthropic documentation here.

Add custom connector

Navigate to Admin settings and click Add custom connector.

Connect to Engrate MCP

Click Connect on the newly added Engrate connector.

Authenticate and register client

Log in with your Engrate account credentials. This initiates OAuth 2.0 Dynamic Client Registration, which automatically provisions secure credentials for your organization’s Claude instance and establishes an authorized connection to Engrate’s APIs.

Start using Energy Map Data

Your prompts now have direct access to Electricity Area Map data. Claude can query grid areas, DSO information, and geographical boundaries to create insights, generate documents, and build prototypes using your organization’s Engrate integrations.

Add the Power Tariffs MCP connector to also enable real-time tariff data access.

Connect to Engrate documentation

Connecting your IDE or editor to Engrate’s documentation MCP server provides AI-assisted access to our API documentation, code examples, and integration guides directly in your development environment.
