CCEE Open Data

Recently CCEE developed it's own open data portal. It is available at dadosabertos.ccee.org.br. This portal has a lot of data available in various formats and can be accessed through flat files or APIs. The full list of available data is available at the datasets page. It's also important to note that CCEE has extensive material on how to get this data, which can be found at the Capacita CCEE portal, searching by Dados Abertos. There you will also find a PDF guid to connect to the API.

The API used by CCEE is based on the CKAN platform, which is a powerful data management system that makes data accessible by providing tools to streamline publishing, sharing, finding and using data. The CKAN platform is used by governments and organizations worldwide to power both official and community data portals. If you need a deep understanding of CCEE API, it's recommended that you go beyond their tutorials and explore the CKAN documentation.

The CceeOpenData class implemented in this package is a simple way to access the CCEE API. It allows for easy access to any dataset available and has customized subclasses for our most used datasets like energy at the gravity center and PLD. For those specific datasets, the class has methods that return the data for the SPEs in our portfolio and also import the data directly to our database.
