AGL Energy
AGL Energy Limited (ASX:AGL) is Australia's oldest listed company — founded in Sydney in 1837 as the Australian Gas Light Company — and one of the country's largest integrated energy businesses, retailing electricity, gas, broadband and mobile to roughly four million customer accounts while owning the nation's largest electricity generation portfolio (Bayswater and Loy Yang A coal, gas peakers, hydro, wind, utility-scale solar and grid-scale batteries). It sits at both ends of the Australian value chain: generator and wholesale market participant in the NEM, and the retailer of record that holds the customer relationship, the billing account and the metering data. Its API posture is entirely a product of regulation, not of product strategy. AGL publishes no public developer portal and no self-serve API programme — apideveloper.agl.com.au resolves through Akamai but returns HTTP 403 to every anonymous client, and agl.com.au itself is bot-blocked at 403. What AGL does expose is the Consumer Data Right: it is a designated CDR energy data holder, listed on the CDR Register under brand "AGL" with public base URI https://public.cdr.agl.com.au, and that surface is real and verified — GET /cds-au/v1/discovery/status and /cds-au/v1/discovery/outages both return HTTP 200 with conformant Consumer Data Standards envelopes, and AGL's own outage notices describe scheduled downtime of the "AGL CDR Consent flow". Its energy plan Product Reference Data is genuinely open and anonymous — 1,343 plans at https://cdr.energymadeeasy.gov.au/agl/cds-au/v1/energy/plans — but that endpoint is operated centrally by the Australian Energy Regulator, not by AGL, which is the structural difference from CDR banking where every bank serves its own PRD. Consumer usage, billing, service point, DER and account data is available only to Accredited Data Recipients, over mTLS, under a consumer authorisation, with the base URI distributed through the CDR Register rather than published. AGL is therefore open on product data, closed to everyone but accredited recipients on consumer data, and silent everywhere else — it publishes no open grid or market data of its own. It is also migrating around four million customer services onto the Kaluza platform under a A$150m, 20 percent stake taken in 2024, so the retail data layer behind these mandated endpoints is being rebuilt on a third-party energy operating system.
AGL Energy is tracked in the API Evangelist network. This page is the human-readable profile that sits on top of the machine-readable index we maintain at apis.io.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
AGL Energy is in the network as a tracked entity. We haven't yet indexed a public API surface for it — when one is published, the artifacts, score, and agent-readiness read will appear here automatically. The source repository is where that profile is built.
