Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server for Tibber

What is linkcd tibber mcp

Tibber MCP Server

This is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server for Tibber, a Norwegian power supplier.

You can run the MCP server locally and access it via different hosts such as Claude Desktop or Roo Code.

For more details, check out my blog post:
Building a Tibber MCP Server: Connect Your AI Agent to Energy Consumption Data

Overview

The Tibber MCP server provides an AI agent with a convenient way to interact with the Tibber API and query information such as current energy prices and your energy consumption data.

Example Queries

Once connected to the MCP server, you can ask questions like:

  • "Analyze my power consumption data and present the usual peak hours and any other interesting patterns in an easy-to-read format."
  • "When did I use the most power yesterday?"
  • "How much power did I consume yesterday at 7 AM?"
  • "What is the current energy price?"
  • "List the 3 cheapest hours of tomorrow."
  • "Is the energy price higher or lower tomorrow?"

Requirements

  • Python 3.12
  • Tibber API token (You can get it from Tibber developer portal)

Installation

  1. Install uv:

    # On macOS and Linux
    curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
    
    # On Windows
    powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex"
    
  2. Clone this repository:

    git clone https://github.com/linkcd/tibber-mcp.git
    cd tibber-mcp
    
  3. Set up the Python virtual environment and install dependencies:

    uv venv --python 3.12 && source .venv`/bin/activate` && uv pip install --requirement pyproject.toml
    

Host Configuration

In Claude Desktop or Roo Code in VS

{
   "mcpServers":{
      "tibber":{
         "command":"uv",
         "args":[
            "--directory",
            "[PATH-TO-ROOT-OF-THE-CLONED-TIBBER-MCP-FOLDER]",
            "run",
            "server.py"
         ],
         "env":{
            "TIBBER_API_TOKEN":"[YOUR-TIBBER-TOKEN]"
         }
      }
   }
}

IMPORTANT: Replace [YOUR-TIBBER-TOKEN] with your actual token. Never commit actual credentials to version control.

Debug and test the MCP server locally

Run the server locally and run MCP inspector against it

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector -e TIBBER_API_TOKEN=[YOUR-TIBBER-TOKEN] python server.py

Available Tools

The server exposes the following tools that LLM can use:

  1. get_consumption_data(): Get the hourly consumption data for the last 30 days, such as time period, total cost, base energy cost, and consumpted kwh
  2. get_price_and_home_info(): Get price info (current, today and tomorrow) and home info (owner, address, subscription...)

Frequently Asked Questions

What is MCP?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open protocol that standardizes how applications provide context to LLMs. Think of MCP like a USB-C port for AI applications, providing a standardized way to connect AI models to different data sources and tools.

What are MCP Servers?

MCP Servers are lightweight programs that expose specific capabilities through the standardized Model Context Protocol. They act as bridges between LLMs like Claude and various data sources or services, allowing secure access to files, databases, APIs, and other resources.

How do MCP Servers work?

MCP Servers follow a client-server architecture where a host application (like Claude Desktop) connects to multiple servers. Each server provides specific functionality through standardized endpoints and protocols, enabling Claude to access data and perform actions through the standardized protocol.

Are MCP Servers secure?

Yes, MCP Servers are designed with security in mind. They run locally with explicit configuration and permissions, require user approval for actions, and include built-in security features to prevent unauthorized access and ensure data privacy.
