What exactly are dynamic energy tariffs?

What are dynamic energy tariffs?

With dynamic energy tariffs, the price of electricity (and optionally gas) moves with the wholesale market. Instead of one fixed tariff, you get an hourly tariff that can change from day to day and hour to hour.

Fixed vs. variable vs. dynamic

• Fixed tariff: you pay an agreed price per kWh for a fixed term.
• Variable tariff: your price can change a few times per year, for example each quarter.
• Dynamic tariff: your price can change every hour, based on the market.

What does that mean for you?

• You pay a fair price that directly follows the market.
• You can save by shifting consumption to cheaper hours.
• You see much more detail: in Leafy Energy you see both your hourly usage and hourly prices.

Leafy Energy uses data models, charts, and automations to make that price dynamic understandable and usable in everyday life.
