Nord Pool charging
Turn hourly prices into a charging plan.
The cheapest hour is only useful when it fits your car, battery and departure time.
Nord Pool publishes wholesale electricity market prices for Nordic and Baltic price areas. Dynamic retail contracts often expose consumers to hourly or otherwise time-varying prices. A smart charging service can use those price signals to move flexible charging away from expensive periods.
Price area matters
Finland, Sweden and Norway use different price areas. DriveQuery must use the area linked to the charging location, not one generic Nordic price.
Your total price is more than Nord Pool
The market price is only one part of the final bill. Retail margin, electricity tax, VAT, distribution charges and time-based transfer tariffs may affect the best charging period.
Vehicle needs set the boundaries
A schedule should begin with the required departure time and battery target. Only the remaining flexibility should be optimised around price.
Automation removes daily checking
Instead of opening a price app every evening, drivers can define reusable rules. DriveQuery is being built to calculate a plan and control charging through Tesla connectivity.
What a useful rule can include
- Charging location and price area
- Departure deadline
- Target battery level
- Minimum acceptable battery
- Maximum hourly price
- Allowed charging hours
