Tracarbon is a Python library that tracks your device's energy consumption and calculates your carbon emissions.
Project description
📌 Overview
Tracarbon is a Python library that tracks your device's energy consumption and calculates your carbon emissions.
It detects your location and your device automatically before starting to export measurements to an exporter. It could be used as a CLI with already defined metrics or programmatically with the API by defining the metrics that you want to have.

📦 Where to get it
# Install Tracarbon
pip install tracarbon
# Install one or more exporters from the list
pip install 'tracarbon[datadog]'

Stdout | Print the metrics in Stdout. |
JSON | Write the metrics in a JSON file. |
Promotheus | Send the metrics to Promotheus. |
Datadog | Send the metrics to Datadog. |
🗺️ Locations
Location | Description | Source |
---|---|---|
Worldwide | Get the latest co2g/kwh in near real-time using the CO2 Signal API. See here for the list of available zones. | CO2Signal API |
Europe | Static file created from the European Environment Agency Emission for the co2g/kwh in European countries. | EEA website |
AWS | Static file of the AWS Grid emissions factors. | cloud-carbon-coefficients |
⚙️ Configuration
The environment variables can be set from an environment file .env
.
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
TRACARBON_CO2SIGNAL_API_KEY | The api key received from CO2 Signal. |
TRACARBON_METRIC_PREFIX_NAME | The prefix to use in all the metrics name. |
TRACARBON_INTERVAL_IN_SECONDS | The interval in seconds to wait between the metrics evaluation. |
TRACARBON_LOG_LEVEL | The level to use for displaying the logs. |
🔎 Usage
Request your API key
- Go to https://www.co2signal.com/ and get your free API key (for non-commercial use only) for getting the latest carbon intensity from your location in near-real time.
- Set your API key in the environment variables, in the
.env
file or directly in the configuration. - If you would like to start without an API key, it's possible, the carbon intensity will be loaded statistically from a file.
- Launch Tracarbon 🚀
Command Line
tracarbon run
