Profiles and average day curves: how they work in Leafy Energy

Profiles and day curves

Profiles are the backbone of Leafy Energy when no smart meter is present. They translate your estimated annual usage into expected patterns per day and per hour.

Which profile dimensions do we use?

• Household type: e.g. “small household”, “family with kids”, “all-electric”.
• Devices: EV, heat pump, electric boiler, and solar PV.
• Rhythm: early birds, night owls, home workers.

How is the day curve constructed?

• Each profile has a base 24-point shape (one value per hour).
• The curve is scaled to your annual or monthly usage.
• Dynamic prices are applied to convert kWh into cost per hour.

In the demo you can switch profiles on the fly to show how identical market prices affect different households in very different ways.
