Amber Electric

Amber Electric Consumer Data Right Energy API

Amber's Consumer Data Right energy data-holder surface, mandated by the Australian CDR regime extended from banking into energy and administered by the ACCC with standards set by the Data Standards Body. Amber is listed on the public CDR Register as an energy data holder brand (dataHolderBrandId 54968899-b7b5-ef11-95f6-6045bd3f1493, ABN 98623603805, lastUpdated 2026-07-23) with the public base URI https://public.cdr.amber.com.au. The implementation was verified live on 2026-07-27, not merely claimed: the Consumer Data Standards discovery endpoints /cds-au/v1/discovery/status and /cds-au/v1/discovery/outages both returned 200 with conformant CDS payloads, and /.well-known/openid-configuration is served anonymously. Access is accredited-only — dynamic client registration at https://secure.cdr.amber.com.au/connect/register with private_key_jwt client authentication and PAR, reachable only by an accredited CDR data recipient holding a software statement assertion from the CDR Register. No general developer can call it.
