Over the last six months, consumers in the Baltic electricity market have had an unpleasant experience, with energy prices reaching over \u20ac1 per kWh. For example, heating a bathroom floor of 5m2<\/sup> can require up to 0.75 kWh of electricity per hour and, depending on the weather, up to 18 kWh of electricity per day. 2022. In January 2008, the average NordPool<\/a> electricity price in Estonia was \u20ac0.142\/kWh. If this underfloor heating had been running at half load at that time, the charge would have been \u20ac62.73, of which \u20ac39.22 for energy and \u20ac23.22 for Elektrilevi fees and taxes. If, on the other hand, this electrical appliance had been running at full load during the most favourable hours of the day, i.e. the same amount of energy had been consumed, the charge would have been \u20ac50.19, of which \u20ac29.06 for energy. A smart reduction in the electricity tariff gives a saving of \u20ac12.54.<\/strong> The graph below illustrates the price and consumption. You can calculate it yourself with your own data on our website qilowatt.eu.<\/a> <\/p>\n\n

Constant fluctuations in the electricity exchange price create an opportunity to save money by rescheduling electricity consumption. Of course, you can use an alarm clock to switch on your electricity at the right time to save money, but a more convenient solution is to use qilowatt.it devices and an online application. Qilowatt.it devices include controls for air source heat pumps, a floor heating thermostat and a smart wall contact. <\/p>\n\n

Using cheaper hours of electricity also has an environmental benefit, as the cheapest electricity is produced from renewable energy sources.<\/p>\n\n

In addition to switching according to the exchange price, qilowatt.it offers you the possibility to switch your electricity wherever the internet reaches. It’s a way for a home service provider to turn on their heating only when it’s really needed, even from another continent. At the same time, a smart electrician can make his or her ordinary electric circuit remotely controllable – after all, it’s nice to come home after a long day and sit in a warm sauna!!! <\/p>\n\n
