aid: utilita url: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/api-evangelist/utilita/refs/heads/main/apis.yml name: Utilita kind: company description: >- Utilita Energy is a United Kingdom household electricity and gas supplier founded in 2003 and headquartered in Eastleigh, Hampshire, specialising in smart Pay As You Go (prepayment) energy for roughly 800,000 mostly lower-income homes. It sits at the retail end of the GB energy value chain — buying wholesale, holding an Ofgem supply licence, and acceding to the Smart Energy Code as a DCC user — and it was the first company in Great Britain to install a residential smart electricity meter (2005) and a combined smart gas and electricity system (2008). Its ENERGY DATA posture is closed on every axis. Britain mandated the smart-meter INFRASTRUCTURE (the Smart DCC, the Smart Energy Code, SMETS1/SMETS2 devices) rather than a consumer data right, so no CDR- or Green-Button-style obligation compels Utilita to publish a customer data API, and it publishes none: no developer portal, no customer usage API, and no open market or grid data — developer., developers., api., docs. and data.utilita.co.uk do not resolve, and /developers, /api, /docs, /data and /openapi.json all return 404. Customer usage and top-up data reaches people only through the My Utilita web portal and mobile app behind an account login; third parties reach GB smart-meter data through the DCC "Other User" route under the Data Access and Privacy Framework, not through Utilita. Utilita does, however, run one genuine public API: the anonymous, CORS-open, documented Utilita Status API at status.utilita.co.uk/api/v2, which reports the live health of 21 tracked components — SMETS1/SMETS2 smart meters, Guest Payments, Open Banking, PayPoint and PayZone top-up channels, the My Utilita app and web portal, Power-up, the websites, the contact centre, smart meter installations and the smart metering network — along with incident and scheduled-maintenance history and self-serve webhook, RSS and Atom notifications. Recorded here as an honest closed-supplier baseline for the UK energy sector, with an operational-transparency surface that is real and usable. image: https://utilita.co.uk/favicon.ico tags: - Energy - United Kingdom - Utilities - Electricity - Gas - Smart Metering - Prepayment - Energy Retail - Status - Operational Transparency created: '2026-07-27' modified: '2026-07-27' specificationVersion: '0.19' apis: - aid: utilita:utilita-status-api name: Utilita Status API description: >- Public, anonymous, read-only JSON API reporting the live operational state of Utilita Energy's services. Eight GET endpoints under https://status.utilita.co.uk/api/v2 return the page status indicator, all 21 tracked components (SMETS1, SMETS1 DCC-enrolled and SMETS2 smart meters, Guest Payments, Open Banking, PayPoint in-store and IVR top-up, PayZone in-store, the My Utilita app and web portal, Power-up functionality, utilita.co.uk, join.utilita.co.uk, telephone lines, the chatbot, smart meter installations and the smart metering network), open and historical incidents with their full update timelines, and scheduled maintenance windows. No API key, no sign-up, no OAuth — every endpoint is anonymous and CORS-open with a 10-second cache window. Runs on Atlassian Statuspage under Utilita's own domain, and offers webhook, RSS, Atom, email and Slack subscriptions for push delivery. This is Utilita's only public API; it carries no customer, billing or consumption data. humanURL: https://status.utilita.co.uk/api baseURL: https://status.utilita.co.uk/api/v2 tags: - Status - Incidents - Components - Scheduled Maintenance - Smart Metering - Energy properties: - type: Documentation url: https://status.utilita.co.uk/api - type: APIReference url: https://status.utilita.co.uk/api - type: OpenAPI url: openapi/utilita-status-openapi.yml - type: Examples url: examples/_index.yml - type: Webhooks url: asyncapi/utilita-status-webhooks.yml - type: StatusPage url: https://status.utilita.co.uk/ - type: Authentication url: authentication/utilita-authentication.yml - type: Conventions url: conventions/utilita-conventions.yml - type: ErrorCatalog url: errors/utilita-problem-types.yml - type: DataModel url: data-model/utilita-data-model.yml - type: Lifecycle url: lifecycle/utilita-lifecycle.yml - type: AgentSkill url: skills/utilita-check-service-status.md common: - type: Website url: https://utilita.co.uk/ - type: About url: https://utilita.co.uk/about-us - type: Documentation url: https://status.utilita.co.uk/api - type: APIReference url: https://status.utilita.co.uk/api - type: StatusPage url: https://status.utilita.co.uk/ - type: OpenAPI url: openapi/utilita-status-openapi.yml - type: Examples url: examples/_index.yml - type: Webhooks url: asyncapi/utilita-status-webhooks.yml - type: Authentication url: authentication/utilita-authentication.yml - type: Conventions url: conventions/utilita-conventions.yml - type: ErrorCatalog url: errors/utilita-problem-types.yml - type: DataModel url: data-model/utilita-data-model.yml - type: Lifecycle url: lifecycle/utilita-lifecycle.yml - type: Conformance url: conformance/utilita-conformance.yml - type: DomainSecurity url: security/utilita-domain-security.yml - type: WellKnownProbe url: well-known/utilita-well-known.yml - type: AgentSkill url: skills/_index.yml - type: LLMsTxt url: llms/utilita-llms.txt - type: CustomerPortal url: https://my.utilita.co.uk/login - type: SignUp url: https://join.utilita.co.uk/ - type: Pricing url: https://utilita.co.uk/tariffs - type: Help url: https://utilita.co.uk/help - type: Support url: https://utilita.co.uk/contact - type: Community url: https://community.utilita.co.uk/ - type: Blog url: https://utilita.co.uk/blog - type: TermsOfService url: https://utilita.co.uk/terms - type: PrivacyPolicy url: https://utilita.co.uk/privacy-notice - type: CookiePolicy url: https://utilita.co.uk/cookie-policy - type: Careers url: https://utilita.co.uk/careers - type: Press url: https://www.luxion.group/utilita-press-corner - type: LinkedIn url: https://www.linkedin.com/company/utilita-energy maintainers: - FN: Kin Lane email: kin@apievangelist.com
