As the name suggests, time-of-use tariff is to divide the 24 hours of a day into several time periods (exactly how to divide depends on the specific local electricity situation), commonly divided into peak periods (usually 11:00 to 16:00, 20:00 to 22:00), low periods (usually 0:00 to 8:00) and flat periods (excluding the peak and low periods of the rest of the time). The price of electricity varies during these different time periods, which is called time-of-use tariffs, essentially a form of electricity billing.
The question of when electricity is cheapest is closely related to time-of-day tariffs. According to relevant data, the price of electricity during the peak period can reach 0.4 USD per kWh, while the price of electricity during the flat period and the low period is 0.26 USD per kWh and 0.16 USD per kWh respectively. Combined with the above data, you will have the cheapest tariffs during the trough period and the highest tariffs during the peak period.
Time-sharing tariffs increase the price of electricity during the peak period and decrease the price of electricity during the trough period, so that users can reduce electricity consumption during the peak period, which helps users to use electricity rationally, and at the same time, it can reduce the pressure of the power system during the peak period and reduce the possibility of damage and paralysis of the power system, which is of great significance for the long term stability of the power system.
The most direct way is to reduce electricity consumption. However, for many users, it is really unavoidable to use more electricity during peak periods, so for this situation, using other equipment to generate power to ensure that you are in the peak power supply may be one of the best ways.
Nowadays, there are two common types of power generation equipment on the market, namely wind turbines and solar panels. Take solar panel system for example, it utilizes free solar energy, through a special structure can be converted into solar energy for your equipment to use, and solar panels can also be stored in the solar battery, when you need to be ready for you to use. The key is that the cost is also low, according to the current market price, the solar panel is only $0.1 per watt.
Of course, you can also buy rechargeable batteries. Take lithium iron phosphate batteries, you can give lithium iron phosphate batteries in the low period of electricity to fully charged, in the peak period of electricity to take out to your equipment power supply, and we should know that lithium iron phosphate in normal circumstances the battery loss of electricity is very small, so that you can also save a certain amount of electricity in the peak period.
Time-share tariffs are usually set and published by the local power supply bureau. You can contact the local power supply bureau directly by phone or e-mail to find out the details of the local time-share tariffs, or look for detailed information about time-share tariffs on the notice boards of the power supply bureau. Of course, you can also ask the staff on duty at the power station and they will be happy to answer your questions about time-of-use tariffs.
The introduction of time-of-use tariffs is important to society, and I believe that after learning more about time-of-use tariffs, you will be able to adjust your electricity consumption habits correctly, which will save you a lot of money in your daily life. Of course, we hope that the methods provided to save electricity during peak hours can help you to a certain extent, so that you can enjoy a more comfortable life.
