Trigger Nordpool/Elspot price change events to your IFTTT Maker Channel

Gets day-ahead prices from Nordpool

Added dynamic intraday prices by PetriKarj to detect highest priced and lowest priced hours for any given day.

Installation

npm install nordpool-ifttt
cd nordpool-ifttt
cp config-sample.js config.js
$EDITOR config.js

Configuration parameters:

area: Set the area where you want to follow the prices. You can see Nordpool/Elspot areas at http://www.nordpoolspot.com/maps/ Currently the active areas are BERGEN, DK1, DK2, EE, ELE, FRE, KR.SAND, KT, LT, LV, MOLDE, OSLO, SE, SE1, SE2, SE3, SE4, SYS, TR.HEIM and TROMSØ
currency: Choose either DKK, EUR, NOK or SEK
highTreshold: Set the price limit above which you want the high price event to be triggered. (Price is for MWh in your selected currency. For example the value 60 means 6 snt/KWh if your currency is EUR.)
lowTreshold: Set the price limit above which you want the high price event to be triggered.
maxHighHours: If you use IFTTT to turn off heating when the energy price is high, you may want to limit the time your heating is off. If you set the maxHighHours to 3 and the energy price will be above your highTreshold for 7 hours, only the 3 most expensive consecutive hours will be triggered. Set to 24 if you want triggers for actual events.
maxLowHours: Same as maxHighHours but for hours below lowTreshold. If you want to turn some appliances on when the price is lowest, but don't want or need to have them on for too long, setting maxLowHours to 2 will select the two cheapest hours from every cheap streak (consecutive hours when the price is below lowTreshold). Set to 24 if you don't need limits.
iftttKey: Activate your IFTTT maker channel and get the key from https://ifttt.com/services/maker_webhooks/settings.
