Dynamic tarifs in DESS

Hi
Any plans to add dynamic tarifs to DESS?
In Denmark the tarifs vary during the day.

It does not make sense to use DESS with fixed tarif - at least in Denmark :slight_smile:

It already does! Have you read the DESS Manual?

I have read the manual and can see that DESS supports dynamic spot prices.

But in Denmark, we have tariffs that vary over the day.
00:00–06:00 - €0.019
06:00–17:00 - €0.058
17:00–21:00 - €0.173
21:00–24:00 - €0.058

So our tariff is not a fixed factor that I can add to the spot price, but it varies over the day.

From the manual:

Blockquote
Then, you can fill out the price per hour (more granularity is currently not possible).

I assume kent2ben means that they have a variable grid fee in addition to the variable spot price. This is not currently supported by DESS as you are not able to make a formula with time variability for dynamic pricing.

Poland same thing, the grid fee varies depending if it’s night or weekend even with dynamic pricing

however usually the lower grid fees coincide with the lower P anyway but not always (from 00h to 06h)
