Endeavour Energy is the regulated electricity distribution network service provider (DNSP) for Greater Western Sydney, the Blue Mountains, the Illawarra, the Southern Highlands, the South Coast and Central West of New South Wales, Australia, delivering power to around 2.8 million people over the poles-and-wires network it owns and operates. It sits between transmission and retail in the value chain - it moves electricity and hosts the meters, but it does not sell energy to consumers, so it holds no retail billing relationship. Its API posture is a sharp split. On the market and network side it is genuinely open: a live Opendatasoft portal at data.endeavourenergy.com.au serves eight network datasets (poles, conductors, distribution districts, other network assets, distribution substation available capacity, and live planned/unplanned/single-premise outages) through a documented, anonymous, no-key REST Explore API with a downloadable OpenAPI 3.0.3 contract, most of it under the Open Database Licence. On the consumer side it is closed and, more importantly, unobligated: Australia's Consumer Data Right was extended to energy, but the designation put the data-holder obligation on electricity retailers as primary holders and AEMO as the secondary holder and gateway, not on distributors. Endeavour Energy appears nowhere in the 84 brands of the CDR energy data holder register, publishes no CDR base URI, and makes no reference to the Consumer Data Right anywhere on its corporate site. It does operate a CSIP-AUS (Common Smart Inverter Profile - Australia) utility server for NSW flexible exports and the emergency backstop mechanism, but that machine interface is device-facing and entirely undocumented publicly. The open data portal itself is not linked from the corporate website.
Endeavour Energy publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network: Open Data Explore API. Tagged areas include Energy, Australia, Utilities, Electricity, and Grid.
Endeavour Energy’s developer surface includes authentication, developer portal, documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, and 32 more developer resources.
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the
Energy & Utilities regime, so
Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite.
If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your
provider repo — the
applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them,
because the conditional facet above carries the other
15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped
maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal
weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

description: Anonymous, key-free REST API over Endeavour Energy's public network open data catalogue, served on the Opendatasoft
Explore API v2.1. Exposes eight datasets covering distribution network assets (440,728 poles, 808,500 conductor segments,
316,997 other network assets, distribution districts), 30,500 records of distribution substation available capacity, and
live outage feeds (unplanned, planned and single-premise) that refresh roughly every ten minutes. Supports dataset search,
record query via the Opendatasoft Query Language (ODSQL), faceting, per-record lookup, attachments, and bulk export to
CSV, Parquet, GPX and DCAT. Verified anonymously on 2026-07-27 with HTTP 200 on the catalogue and on records with no credential;
an optional apikey query parameter exists for authenticated quota. Anonymous quota observed at 5,000 calls per day via
the x-ratelimit-limit response header. Most datasets are published under the Open Database Licence; three carry no declared
licence.
