Adding support for varying service fees based on the time of day - when?

  • Adding support for varying service fees based on the time of day - when can we expect this important feature (for most of czech users there is significant price difference for service fees during the day so we need to be able enter “P + …” formulas different in different hours of day. Hope it is coming soon, this is last thing preventing me from using DESS after zeroing negative prices feature which had been added today, which is great! Thanks!

I have also been missing this feature since the release of DESS. I’m located in Finland and have the same issue. Very often for me with current spot prices, time of day consumption has a bigger effect on energy cost than the intraday differences in spot price. This leads to sub-optimal DESS performance.

Below is my suggestion of how it could be implemented in DESS settings view. You could utilize the fixed price schedule settings and call for it with a modifier in the “price formula window”. But perhaps someone else has a better suggestion.

Exactly! I don’t know why it takes so much time to implement it…
