Version 1.2.2 just uploaded which contains an update because Easy Energy now includes tax on the website. Needed to recalculate the tariff because double taxes is not what we want to see :0

Happy new year! We have higher taxes :( Please change the settings in the easy energy app yourselves to reflect to so the app is showing the correct tariff.

I released a new version of the easy energy app which now falls back to the APX dashboard site to fetch the current tariffs. Since winter time the easyenergy site isn't showing the tariffs anymore so this fallback was necessary :)

It is already available from github: https://github.com/IgorYbema/easyenergy

I will create a toonstore version soon.

I'm about to rewrite this application to be called Spot Energy, APX Energy or, APX Spot Energy (not sure what is the best name yet).

EasyEnergy is not the only one anymore who is providing APX price based flexible energy.
Edmij and NieuweStroom (the last one being the owner of EasyEnergy) is providing the same for businesses.
EnergyZero is providing the same for consumers also. MijnDomein Energie and Ben Energie (the last one from the telephone brand Ben) are whitelabeld partners of Energyzero. (edit: Ben Energy was a pilot, but they stopped it and will not be selling it)

Currently the app is getting the data primarly from the EasyEnergy site. APX site is used when the easyenergy site is down. However for this modification I will remove the EasyEnergy site as the primary source. Also I want to add daily spotprice for gas also. And maybe I will add a info link to the sites who provide these flexible contracts.

When the rewrite is ready it will, when installed, remove the old easyenergy app and copy the saved settings.

New version 2.0 is about to be released in one of these days. The app will now be called 'spot energy'.

Remember to change the settings for taxes according to new 2019 tariffs!

Version 2.0.1 is just released in the Toonstore.

The SpotEnergy app will load settings from an installed easyenergy app if possible. Therefore you need to installed SpotEnergy first and when it is running you can safely remove the EasyEnergy app.

Create a virtual sensor in domoticz of type 'alert'. Then point the spotenergy setting to the domoticz server and the IDX of that created sensor.
From then on the Toon will update that alert sensor with green,yellow or red status (depening on low medium or high tariff) and will also put the tariff itself in the data field of the sensor.

Next you can trigger, within domoticz, other tasks depending on that status. For example, I use that to heat my boiler only if the tariff is 'green' (low).

Hi,

From yesterday the nice SpotEnergy app 2.1.4 is not showing the energy prices anymore for the next day.
Even when updating to 2.1.6 is not loading new tarifs.
Internet connection looks ok , other apps work fine.
Maybe something with daylight saving time....
Edit... today 27-03 Yes it is working again... :D
