What is the main difference between Leafy Energy and a traditional supplier?

Leafy Energy vs traditional suppliers

The biggest difference is that Leafy Energy uses dynamic hourly tariffs. This means the price per kWh can change every hour based on the wholesale market.

Traditional model

• You pay one fixed price per kWh (or day/night price) for a longer period.
• The supplier takes on price fluctuation risks and charges a premium for that.

Leafy Energy model

• You pay the actual market price per hour plus a transparent markup.
• With smart control (automations, price alerts) you can profit from cheap hours.
• You get very detailed insight into your usage, sometimes down to device level via smart home integrations.

In exchange for a bit more flexibility, you gain more control and insight — ideal if you have smart devices, an EV, or a home battery.
