Tariffs

The Tariffs tab shows the electricity tariff details assigned to this household. Tariff information is used by the platform's recommendation engine to calculate cost-based insights and personalise energy-saving recommendations — for example, suggesting that a user shift consumption to off-peak hours.

Tariff Chart

The main area displays a bar chart that visualises the applicable electricity rate for every hour of the week.

  • Y-axis — Price in EUR / kWh.

  • X-axis — Hourly time slots from Monday 00:00 through Sunday 23:00.

  • Bar colour and height — Taller, darker bars represent the High Tariff rate; shorter, lighter bars represent the Low Tariff rate.

A legend in the top-right corner of the chart shows the exact rates, for example:

Band
Rate

Low Tariff

0.296 EUR / kWh

High Tariff

0.385 EUR / kWh

The chart makes it easy to see at a glance when expensive and cheap periods occur throughout the week. For a household on a dual tariff, the high-tariff periods typically correspond to daytime hours on weekdays, while nights and weekends fall under the low tariff.

High Tariff Schedule

Below the chart, a table lists the exact high-tariff windows for each day of the week:

Weekday
High Tariff

Monday

07:00 – 19:00

Tuesday

07:00 – 19:00

Wednesday

07:00 – 19:00

Thursday

07:00 – 19:00

Friday

07:00 – 19:00

Saturday

Sunday

All hours outside the listed windows are charged at the low-tariff rate. The schedule varies by tariff provider, so the exact windows may differ between households.

Tariff Types

The platform supports different tariff structures depending on the household's electricity contract:

  • Single Tariff — A flat rate applies at all times. The chart shows bars of uniform height.

  • Dual Tariff — Two rate bands (high / low) apply depending on the time of day and day of the week, as shown in the example above. Households on a dual tariff are tagged with the Dual Tariff label in the sidebar.

  • Dynamic Tariff - Any rate that can be applied outside of a single and dual tariff like 15min changed tariffs, tripple tariffs and so on.
