Blue (fastened) and yellow (floating) electrical energy tariffs emerge as the most cost effective choices for family customers within the first half of the yr. The “inexperienced” tariffs that almost all of customers stay on are comparatively dearer, with out main variations, however they’ve the benefit of offering the buyer with visibility of the worth they’re paying as the fees every month are introduced prematurely, on the first of every month.
The info on the evolution of the costs come from the electrical energy tariff comparability instrument of the Regulatory Authority (RAAEF) for the interval January – June, when the “inexperienced” tariff was utilized for the primary time in an effort to make a clean transition to the surroundings with out subsidies that had been in power in throughout the vitality disaster.
The info exhibits that apart from January when the most cost effective tariff was blue, within the following 5 months the most cost effective affords from suppliers had been included within the “yellow” tariff. From the identical information it additionally seems that throughout the first 5 months electrical energy costs fell. The primary causes for the decline had been comparatively low demand because of the delicate winter and regular temperatures that prevailed within the spring, the elevated participation of renewable sources in overlaying the load and the holding of pure gasoline costs at ranges decrease than final yr, regardless of the rise that recorded within the final interval.
Circumstances have modified in the summertime as demand will increase and thermal models take part extra in assembly the load. The common wholesale worth of electrical energy throughout the first 20 days of June was 97 euros per megawatt hour, in comparison with 81 euros in Might and 60 in April. Which means that – until the image adjustments by the tip of the month – July’s floating tariffs (inexperienced and yellow) will probably be elevated.
Because the Minister of Atmosphere and Vitality Theodoros Skylakakis talked about, seasonality – because of the excessive participation of RES – will henceforth dominate the electrical energy system, with larger costs in summer time, decrease in Autumn and Spring and medium costs in winter relying on the climate.
In line with components within the vitality house, customers might alter their technique accordingly:
-Both selecting floating tariffs with decrease fees in some months and better in others,
-Both turning to fastened, which in periods of normal worth declines additionally decline (eg in April there was a six-month fastened tariff in the marketplace at 8.8 cents per kilowatt hour). Mounted charges defend in opposition to will increase however don’t permit the buyer to profit from decreases throughout their time period. As well as, not like the inexperienced and yellow tariffs, they comprise an early withdrawal clause if the buyer chooses to “break” the contract earlier than its expiry.
