With the highest prices, the same heating would cost 41,906 kronor. This shows the enormous difference in cost depending on when electricity is used.
Conclusion: Plan Your Energy Usage
With significant variations in electricity prices from day to day and hour to hour, consumers can save a lot of money by adjusting their energy usage. By taking advantage of the cheapest hours, households can significantly reduce their costs, which is especially important during times of high electricity prices.
