Difference between day, night, and peak rates at Leafy Energy

Day, night, and peak rates in a dynamic model

Traditional contracts sometimes distinguish between day and night tariffs. With Leafy Energy you primarily work with hourly tariffs, but the app still helps you recognise time-of-day patterns.

Time-of-day in the app

• Day: typical usage hours between about 07:00 and 23:00.
• Night: quieter hours that are often cheaper.
• Peak: hours with prices clearly above the daily average.

Why still talk about time-of-day?

For many users it’s easier to plan around “night”, “day”, and “peak” than 24 separate hours. Leafy Energy’s labels translate raw data points into intuitive time blocks.
