Consumer Data Right (Energy)
The Consumer Data Right (CDR) is Australia's statutory consumer data-sharing regime, created under Part IVD of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 and extended from banking into electricity by the Consumer Data Right (Energy Sector) Designation 2020. It is run by three bodies: the ACCC as lead regulator and operator of the CDR Register, the OAIC as privacy regulator, and the Treasury Data Standards Body, which writes the binding Consumer Data Standards. In energy the regime obliges electricity retailers to expose plans, accounts, billing, invoices, payment schedules, concessions, service points, interval usage and DER data through one identical, versioned API contract, with AEMO acting as the Secondary Data Holder gateway for NMI standing data, metering data and the DER register. Unlike almost every other energy-sector data mandate, this one is verifiably implemented rather than merely announced: the public CDR Register listed 84 energy data holder brands with live public base URIs when probed on 2026-07-27, and 53 of those base URIs returned standards-conformant product data anonymously on the first request. Its API posture is a clean two-speed split — genuinely open, unauthenticated market data (retail plan and tariff reference data, plus the participant register itself) sitting alongside consumer data that is closed behind ACCC accreditation, mutual TLS, FAPI-grade OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect and explicit, revocable consumer consent. Home market Australia.
Solid contracts, transparent operations, and an easy start — typically complete on four or five facets with one clear soft spot.
API Evangelist profiles Consumer Data Right (Energy) the way a machine reads it — 33 machine-readable artifacts across 6 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
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. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Consumer Data Right (Energy) scores 60.6/100 (strong), with a separate agent-readiness read of 34/100 (agent ready). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance. Every facet and dimension name is a link: it opens that measurement's page on APIs.io, where the rating runs across the whole catalog — the exact checks that feed it, how every profiled provider distributes on it, and who is at the top of it.

How we profile Consumer Data Right (Energy)
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Consumer Data Right (Energy). For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.
APIs 17
Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.
Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

OPEN COLLECTIONRate Limits 1
Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.
Documented rate limits and quota policies.

RATE LIMITSEvent Specifications 1
Not every API is request/response. AsyncAPI describes the event-driven and streaming side — the webhooks and channels — so the asynchronous half of the interface is documented the same way the synchronous half is.

ASYNCAPIExamples 5
Real request and response payloads are what turn a spec from abstract into obvious — and they're one of the twelve things an agent needs to call an API correctly on the first try.
Example request and response payloads for these APIs.
Security Posture 2
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.

Scopes 1
OAuth scopes are the vocabulary of least-privilege access. Profiling them shows exactly what an integration — or an agent acting on a user's behalf — is allowed to do.

This is an independent, third-party profile of Consumer Data Right (Energy), published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.
The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.
Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
