What exactly are Tibber electricity prices?

Tibber offers electricity at dynamic prices that change hourly depending on supply and demand. These prices are taken directly from the energy exchange, which means they can fluctuate. The prices include all costs such as taxes and grid fees. However, there is also a monthly basic fee of around 6 euros. On average, the price per kilowatt-hour (kWh) is between 23 and 29 cents, which is cheaper than many conventional fixed-price contracts.

For households looking to further optimize their energy costs, DRBO Greenenergy offers sustainable solutions such as solar and storage systems that maximize their own energy consumption. By combining photovoltaic systems and energy storage systems, users can further reduce their electricity costs by storing excess energy and using it later. This allows them to benefit not only from favorable prices but also from efficient, environmentally friendly electricity use.

How do Tibber electricity prices work on a daily basis?

Tibber purchases electricity on the exchange hourly, with prices projected 24 hours in advance. In the app, users can see the daily prices and control their devices accordingly to consume at favorable times. Especially when prices are low, such as with wind and sun, users can benefit from favorable tariffs. DRBO Greenenergy recommends using SunLit energy storage systems to store excess energy and thus minimize costs.

What are the advantages of Tibber electricity prices?

Tibber offers flexible and transparent pricing that depends on fluctuations in the electricity market. Users can benefit from a favorable annual average of 23-29 cents/kWh and also use the app to monitor consumption and control their devices.

What are the disadvantages of Tibber electricity prices?

Despite the advantages, there are also some disadvantages: During periods of low wind or very cold weather, prices can rise to up to €1.33/kWh. Without the use of storage or smart devices, electricity consumption can become expensive. In addition, Tibber is not suitable for households that prefer high predictability and low price fluctuations. In this case, DRBO Greenenergy recommends integrating SunLit energy storage systems to offset these price peaks.

Why do Tibber electricity prices fluctuate so much?

The fluctuations in Tibber electricity prices are caused by market conditions, particularly supply and demand. If electricity production is reduced due to low wind or clouds, prices rise as demand exceeds supply. Conversely, prices fall when there is high generation from renewable energy sources such as wind and solar. Tibber utilizes these market movements and offers users a transparent visualization of price developments in the app.

How can I optimally save with Tibber electricity prices?

To save optimally with Tibber, users should use the forecasts in the app to shift their consumption to times with low prices. Devices such as washing machines or electric cars should be operated during these times. By using DRBO Greenenergy's SunLit storage systems, users can store excess energy and consume it when needed, instead of buying at expensive prices. This can result in savings of up to 30%.

Can I combine Tibber with solar systems?

Tibber offers a flexible way to control electricity consumption by utilizing dynamic electricity prices. Users can store their solar power when prices are low or feed it into the grid when prices are high. This means they can benefit from price fluctuations and optimize their electricity bill. It is particularly advantageous to also use a storage system to store excess energy and use it later.

In combination with DRBO Greenenergy's SunLit storage systems, users can significantly increase their self-sufficiency. These storage solutions make it possible to store more solar energy and thus reduce dependence on external electricity. This leads to better control over one's own energy consumption and more efficient use of solar energy, which not only saves costs but also protects the environment.
