Smart electricity tariffs
Your tariff is the exchange rate for every other decision on this site. Change it and the payback on solar, batteries and EV charging changes with it.
Where we stand
Tariff switching is the cheapest upgrade available and the one most households skip. We recommend settling the tariff before spending on hardware.
The questions that actually decide it
Check these before you commit
- What are your current standing charge and unit rates?
- Do you have a working smart meter reporting half-hourly?
- Does the tariff require specific hardware?
- What exit fees apply?
