Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## ⚡ Energy Market Signals & Trading Notices Scraper Scrape **trading signals, customer notices, market alerts and operational updates** from major European energy market portals — EEX, EPEX SPOT, Nord Pool, ENTSO-E, OMIE and any custom energy portal URL.

Enable **Demo Mode** to preview output format before running - Use **Keyword Filter** to monitor specific events (e.g. `suspension`, `force majeure`, `correction`) - Use **Urgency Filter = High** for critical event monitoring only - Set `date_from` to today's date for a real-time notice feed - Add multiple portal URLs (one per line) for cross-portal monitoring - Run on Apify **Schedule** (every 15-60 min) for continuous market monitoring - Use RESIDENTIAL proxy for portals that block datacenter IPs *** ### 📊 Recommended Portal URLs ``` ## EEX — Power, Gas, Environmental https://www.eex.com/en/market-data/trading-signals/customer-information ## EPEX SPOT — Intraday / Day-Ahead Power https://www.epexspot.com/en/news ## Nord Pool — Power Markets https://www.nordpoolgroup.com/en/market-data1/operational-messages/ ## ENTSO-E — Transparency & Grid https://transparency.entsoe.eu/outage-domain/r2/unavailabilityOfProductionAndGenerationUnits/show ## OMIE — Iberian Power Market https://www.omie.es/en/customer-information/notices ``` *** ### 📤 Output Destination | Destination | Format | Access | |-------------|--------|--------| | **Apify Dataset** | JSON | Output tab — view, filter, paginate, export | | **Key-Value Store** (`results.json`) | JSON | Direct download or API access | | **CSV Export** | CSV | Download button in Output tab | *** ### ❓ FAQ **Can it monitor multiple portals in one run?** Yes. Add multiple portal URLs, one per line, in the `target_urls` field. **How are urgency levels determined?** The Actor scans the notice title for keywords. "Suspension", "Emergency" and "Force Majeure" = High. "Correction" and "Update" = Medium. All others = Low. **What is a report\_id?** A deterministic ID generated from the portal domain, publication date and title hash — ensures each notice has a stable, unique identifier across runs. **Can I use this for automated alerting?** Yes. Schedule the Actor to run every 15-60 minutes. Compare output against previous run. Trigger alerts for new High urgency notices. **Does it work with any energy portal?** Yes. The Actor includes a generic parser that works with any HTML page containing energy notices or trading signals. *** ### 🔑 Keywords energy market signals scraper, EEX trading signals, EPEX SPOT notices, Nord Pool operational messages, ENTSO-E transparency scraper, energy market alerts, trading notice scraper, power market data, electricity market notices, force majeure alert, market suspension monitor, energy portal scraper, grid outage tracker, intraday market signals *** ### 💰 Pricing **$7.99/month** — Unlimited monitoring across all supported energy market portals. # Actor input Schema ## `demo_mode` (type: `boolean`): ON → instantly returns 10 real energy market signal samples (EEX, EPEX, Nord Pool, ENTSO-E).
