Nord Pool
Devices & Services > Nord Pool reads Nord Pool's own public day-ahead electricity spot price API for one configured Nordic/Baltic delivery area - no credential, no pairing, and no physical hardware involved at all.
Adding an area
Pick one delivery area (FI, SE1-4, NO1-5, DK1-2,
EE, LV, LT). "Connect" just means that area/currency pair
fetches successfully - there's nothing else to configure.
Entities
Four read-only sensors, left in the API's own native currency/MWh rather than converted to
cents/kWh: current_price, min_price_today,
max_price_today, and average_price_today. A background loop wakes every
15 minutes (prices only change on the hour, and only get new data once a day) - it recomputes
current_price against the wall clock and only records a change when the price
actually moves, and once past roughly 13:00 local time it fetches tomorrow's prices if they
aren't cached yet, matching when Nord Pool typically publishes them.
Works with Dashboard cards, History, and Automations exactly like every other integration - there's nothing to control, so it never appears as an Action node target, only as a state source.
Nord Pool was one of the first two integrations in Athena that aren't physical devices at all - just a configured API endpoint, the same shape the weather integrations later reused.
