What is tako-mcp?
tako-mcp is an MCP server specifically designed for Octopus Energy Japan users. It allows AI assistants (such as Claude) to securely access your electricity usage data, including detailed electricity consumption, cost estimates, account information, etc., through a standardized Model Context Protocol (MCP) interface. This tool is particularly suitable for users who want to understand their electricity usage patterns, optimize energy consumption, or conduct cost analysis. With the help of AI assistants, you can get personalized electricity usage suggestions and insights.How to use tako-mcp?
Using tako-mcp is very simple and only requires three steps: 1. Prepare your Octopus Energy Japan account information (email, password, and account number). 2. Configure the MCP server in your AI assistant (such as Claude Desktop). 3. Start asking your AI assistant about your electricity usage. After configuration, you can directly ask in natural language, for example, 'How much is my electricity bill this month?' or 'Which time period had the highest electricity consumption yesterday?' The AI assistant will obtain data through tako-mcp and analyze it for you.Applicable scenarios
tako-mcp is particularly suitable for the following scenarios: • Home energy management: Understand home electricity usage patterns and discover energy-saving opportunities. • Cost budgeting: Estimate monthly electricity expenses and make financial plans. • Electricity usage analysis: Analyze electricity usage changes during specific time periods (such as summer and holidays). • Equipment efficiency evaluation: Evaluate the effectiveness of new electrical appliances or energy-saving equipment. • Environmental awareness: Track carbon footprint and understand the impact of energy consumption on the environment.Main features
Detailed electricity usage data query
Get accurate electricity consumption data at 30-minute intervals to help you understand the peak and off-peak electricity usage periods each day.
Intelligent cost estimation
Based on your actual electricity consumption and the current electricity price plan, automatically calculate the estimated electricity cost, and support viewing by day, week, or month.
Account information management
Securely access your account and contract information, including the current package, basic fees, etc. (sensitive personal information is automatically hidden).
