Introduction

The NOX Energy API enables energy suppliers and manufacturers to seamlessly integrate residential energy assets into their operations, supporting grid balancing and helping to optimize electricity costs for end users. Through our secure, RESTful API, you can access real-time, forecasted and historical data, as well as control residential devices within their customer base. Key capabilities include:

• Listing and managing device information and user settings
• Retrieving historical and forecasted consumption data (per asset or aggregated)
• Monitoring current flexibility (flex up/down) and executing flex actions across devices
• Integration into energy supplier and manufacturers mobile app.

Leverage the NOX Energy API to enhance your energy management strategies, improve grid stability, and deliver greater value to your customers.

API packages

Nox Energy currently provides 2 API Packages for energy suppliers and 1 API package for manufacturers. API Packages:

• NOX control: Option to integrate into your website/app + NOX Energy controls the assets based on supplier or user preferred optimization settings. Any combination of the following optimizations are possible:
  • Weather predictive control: Take into account natural heating/cooling of the house based on predicted weather circumstances to avoid unnecessary heating/cooling.
  • Solar self consumption: Maximizes solar energy utilization by scheduling consumption during solar energy production periods.
  • Dynamic tarrifs: Optimize energy consumption based on electricity prices, automatically shifting usage to periods with lower costs or when energy prices provide net benefits to users. Which energy markets or types of tarrifs that are taken into account depends on the country, user and/or energy supplier. By default we optimize on day-ahead market and imbalance market. A separation of optimization between day-ahead and imbalance market is also possible.
• Partner control: Option to integrate into your website/app + NOX Energy provides real-time and forecasted energy flex bounds (aggregated or per asset), enabling partners to execute demand response actions when financially beneficial. NOX Energy handles device control, authentication and manufacturer partnerships, eliminating implementation complexity for partners but giving steering control. This allows the partner to execute their own optimization algorithm and play on energy markets and tarrifs by their choosing.

Manufacturer API Package:

• Integration: Integrate into manufacturer website/app + NOX Energy provides direct integration for both NOX control and partner control optimizations. Furthermore, we provide and manage an authentication process for all integrated partners. Additionally, user or asset settings are synced between all integrated parties through us and can be consulted with our API endpoints.

API Environments

Nox Energy provides 2 seperated API environments: Package API Base urls:

• Sandbox Base URL: https://api.sandbox.nox.energy
• Production Base URL: https://api.nox.energy

Integration API Base urls:

• Sandbox Base URL: https://auth.sandbox.nox.energy
• Production Base URL: https://auth.nox.energy

The Sandbox environment allows you to test and develop your integrations without affecting your live operations. The sandbox API contains real-time generated test data to replicate our production environment as close as possible. Our Historical sandbox endpoints hold between 7-30 days of data.
