Some electricity providers deliver his customers with hourly tariffs at energy trading rates (purchase price). Their only income is the per month member fee. This makes their product very smart grid ready and really fun for some people to try to match their energy demand to the hourly energy price and hopefully pay less eventually this way.
This app provides a quick glance of the hourly spot electric price for the current hour. It also shows the expecting price for the next couple of hours and tries to advice when prices are high and when it is low. So you can choose when to start our dishwasher, do the laundry or heat up your electrical boiler.
The app includes a (virtual) alert device in domoticz based on the tariff value. Within domoticz you can use this to switch on/off equipment or other things.
The app is available in the store.
Since 2.0.0 the app is called SpotEnergy as it reflects the soure of the prices better. Before it was called EasyEnergy (as the energy provider delivering hourly prices to consumers) but now there are a few more doing the same.
