What get_renewable_energy does on Mcp Server
AI agents call get_renewable_energy to retrieve information from Mcp Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
lat | number | — | Optional latitude in decimal degrees (-90 to 90) to find nearest projects within 50mi |
lng | number | — | Alias for lon — either name works |
lon | number | — | Optional longitude in decimal degrees (-180 to 180) to find nearest projects within 50mi |
state | string | — | US state abbreviation, e.g. TX, VA, AZ |
latitude | number | — | Alias for lat — either name works |
longitude | number | — | Alias for lon — either name works |
energy_type | string | — | Renewable type: "solar", "wind", or "combined"; omit for all |

Why get_renewable_energy is rated Low
Even though get_renewable_energy only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs get_renewable_energy safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For get_renewable_energy, this is the rule to start with:
get_renewable_energy is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Mcp Server, apply this rule, and every get_renewable_energy call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about get_renewable_energy
Use when siting a renewable-powered data center, sizing a PPA, or assessing RE100/24-7-CFE feasibility for one US state. Example: "What is Texas wind+solar capacity and how much utility-scale solar is operating today?" — get_renewable_energy energy_type=solar state=TX. Params: energy_type one of "solar" | "wind" | "combined" (omit for all); state 2-letter US code (e.g. TX, VA, AZ); lat+lon (optional) for the nearest projects within 50mi. Returns: {capacity_mw_total, by_fuel: {solar_utility, solar_rooftop, wind_onshore, wind_offshore}, capacity_factor_pct, top_projects[{name, mw, operator, cod}], state_rps_target_pct, source: "EIA-860 + state RPS"}. Do NOT use for live grid generation (use get_grid_data) or non-US (use get_grid_scoreboard for EU/UK/AU/TW). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mcp Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
get_renewable_energy accepts 7 parameters: lat, lng, lon, state, latitude, longitude, energy_type. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Mcp Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_renewable_energy: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Mcp Server. Nothing to install.
get_renewable_energy is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_renewable_energy rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_renewable_energy. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
get_renewable_energy is provided by the Mcp Server MCP server (https://dchub.cloud/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
