Query Parameters

tracker

enum<string>

Comma-separated GEM trackers. Valid values: coal_plants, coal_mines, coal_terminals, oil_gas_plants, oil_gas_extraction, lng_terminals, nuclear, geothermal, bioenergy, hydropower, solar, wind, gas_pipelines, oil_pipelines, lng_carriers. Omit for all trackers. All trackers: Taxonomy & Codes — Energy. Full value list: https://docs.gdeltcloud.com/reference/enums#gem_heavy_industry_tracker The enum above is the UNION across every endpoint that shares this parameter: iron_steel_plants, cement_plants, chemical_plants, iron_ore_mines — ACCEPTED ONLY ON /api/v2/energy/assets, /api/v2/energy/assets/summary. Elsewhere they return 400.

Available options:

iron_steel_plants,

cement_plants,

chemical_plants,

iron_ore_mines,

coal_plants,

coal_mines,

coal_terminals,

oil_gas_plants,

lng_carriers

Example:

"coal_plants,solar"

country

string

Country filter, resolved through the shared resolveCountryInput layer: a country name (United States), ISO-2 (US), ISO-3 (USA), or legacy alias all work. Filters primary or secondary country for cross-border assets; combinable with region/continent and an unresolvable value returns 400 INVALID_COUNTRY. Full value list: https://docs.gdeltcloud.com/reference/enums#country

Example:

"United States"

region

enum<string>

Plain English region. Expands to the same ISO-3 country list used by V2 Events.

Available options:

Middle East,

Northern Africa,

Western Africa,

Eastern Africa,

Middle Africa,

Southern Africa,

Eastern Europe,

South Asia,

Southeast Asia,

East Asia,

Central Asia,

Northern America,

Central America,

Caribbean

Example:

"Middle East"

continent

enum<string>

Plain English continent. Expands to the same ISO-3 country list used by V2 Events.

Available options:

Africa,

Asia,

Europe,

North America,

South America,

Oceania

Example:

"Asia"

status

enum<string>

Comma-separated GEM status values. Common values include operating, construction, pre-construction, permitted, announced, proposed, shelved, cancelled, retired, and mothballed. See Taxonomy & Codes — Energy. Full value list: https://docs.gdeltcloud.com/reference/enums#energy_status

Available options:

operating,

construction,

proposed,

permitted,

cancelled,

mothballed,

retired,

active,

underground gas storage,

on order,

mixed status,

announced,

pre-construction,

pre-permit,

in-development,

discovered,

exploration,

shelved,

cancelled - inferred 4 y,

shelved - inferred 2 y,

abandoned,

idle,

idled,

decommissioning

Example:

"operating,construction"

operating_only

boolean

default:false

Shorthand for status=operating.

tier

string

Comma-separated within-tracker tier values such as main, utility, distributed, below_threshold, closed, or sub_threshold. Observed vocabulary, measured 2026-08-10 (5 distinct values). Values outside it are accepted, not rejected. Discover current values: GET /api/v2/energy/assets/summary?group_by=tier. GEM's own coverage tier for an asset row (main sheet vs below-threshold vs closed, and the utility/distributed split on solar). The serve layer accepts it as a free comma list and does not validate it, so an unknown tier returns an empty 200 rather than a 400 — which is why it is published as a measurement rather than as an allowlist. Values seen in the corpus: https://docs.gdeltcloud.com/reference/enums#energy_tier

Example:

"main,utility"

fuel

enum<string>

Comma-separated fuel values. Matches the tracker-native fuel string or normalized cross-tracker fuel where populated. See Taxonomy & Codes — Energy. Full value list: https://docs.gdeltcloud.com/reference/enums#energy_fuel

Available options:

gas,

oil,

bioenergy,

coal,

solar,

wind,

nuclear,

hydropower,

geothermal

Example:

"coal,solar"

capacity_mw_min

number

Minimum MW capacity. Meaningful for power-generation trackers only.

Required range: x >= 0

capacity_mw_max

number

Maximum MW capacity. Meaningful for power-generation trackers only.

Required range: x >= 0

start_year_min

integer

Minimum asset start year.

Required range: 1700 <= x <= 2200

start_year_max

integer

Maximum asset start year.

Required range: 1700 <= x <= 2200

retired_year_min

integer

Minimum asset retired year.

Required range: 1700 <= x <= 2200

retired_year_max

integer

Maximum asset retired year.

Required range: 1700 <= x <= 2200

entity

string

Canonical owner selector — the same entity value works across endpoints. Pass a spine entity id (e_...) for an EXACT match against an asset's owners, operators, or parents, or any name for a case-insensitive fuzzy owner-name match. Preferred over the legacy owner_search param.

Example:

"ArcelorMittal"

owner_search

string

Legacy — prefer the canonical entity param (still fully supported). Case-insensitive substring match against the raw owner string.

Example:

"ExxonMobil"

owner_entity_id

string

GEM Entity ID. Returns assets where the entity appears in owners, operators, or parents.

Example:

"E100002021305"

bbox

string

Viewport filter formatted as lat_min,lon_min,lat_max,lon_max.

Pattern: ^-?\d+(\.\d+)?,-?\d+(\.\d+)?,-?\d+(\.\d+)?,-?\d+(\.\d+)?$

Example:

"30,-105,33,-100"

near

string

Proximity filter formatted as lat,lon,radius_km.

Pattern: ^-?\d+(\.\d+)?,-?\d+(\.\d+)?,\d+(\.\d+)?$

Example:

"31.16,-102.9,50"

string

Case-insensitive substring match against asset name.

Example:

"Ranch Energy"

asset_class

enum<string>

default:fixed

Asset class. The default fixed excludes mobile LNG carriers; use mobile or all for vessels. Full value list: https://docs.gdeltcloud.com/reference/enums#energy_asset_class

Available options:

fixed,

mobile,

all

sort

enum<string>

default:capacity_desc

List sort order. Full value list: https://docs.gdeltcloud.com/reference/enums#energy_sort

Available options:

capacity_desc,

capacity_asc,

start_year_desc,

start_year_asc,

recent,

name

limit

integer

default:25

Number of asset cards to return.

Required range: 1 <= x <= 100

cursor

string

Pagination cursor from pagination.next_cursor.

Example:

"25"
