An interesting new tariff from E.on that may be of interest to some. It launched on 15th April:  https://www.eon-uk.news/news/e-on-next-launches-uks-first-fixed-time-of-use-tariff-for-the-mass-market

You need a smart meter.  Like some Octopus Energy smart tariffs it has an expensive Peak rate between 4pm-7pm.  Then it has a Super Off-peak rate between 2am-5am.  Then the rest of the time it has an Off-peak rate.

It is 12 months fixed.  This is my quote for the East Midlands:



It certainly isn't super cheap but it could be worth considering for some.

Here is some additional information:

    It's not really like Octopus Agile - it's more like an import only version of Octopus Flux

    Hi, I've just signed up to the v6 version of this. Just a concern from me, the high rate isn't on its own meter read. (I have 2 - 1 night rate and 1 day rate). The meter has about 12 TOU displays, all but the main two show zero. So I assumed this time period would have its own reading. I'm not sure I like the fact the this removes traceability. I.e. if they say I used 5kw in the 16-19:00 time period, I can't prove otherwise.

    ... a smart meter holds about 13 months of each 30 minute's usage data, which you can periodically download using Hildebrand's Glowmarkt platform ... glowmarkt.com, and so verify your bills.

    I know I'm replying to a comment from May, but I wanted to mention that there are similar three-rate tariffs from several other suppliers.
    100Green (ex. Green Energy UK) have their "Tide Smart" tariff, for example.
    They also have "Tide Lifestyle" with three off-peak periods a day, a bit like Economy 10.
