When you talk to an electricity seller, it’s hard to tell whether the price they offer is good or expensive. Gridea makes the picture clear — from your own consumption, not the exchange average.
Your consumption pattern — when you use electricity — determines how much of the exchange price you actually pay. Draw your typical day below or pick a preset and watch the profile factor change. Above 100% means you consume in the pricier hours; below 100%, the cheaper ones.
Hold and drag across the chart — or pick a ready-made pattern.
When a seller offers a fixed price, don’t compare it to the exchange average — multiply the average by your factor and compare the offer against that. That shows whether the price is actually good or expensive for your consumption, so you go into the conversation with a number, not a hunch. Your real factor comes once you connect your data in a Gridea account — the example pattern is not your own.
If the exchange price halves, the bill does not halve. Exchange energy is only one part of the delivered price — the network fee, excise, renewable and security-of-supply fees and VAT are added on top. Example (Elektrilevi Võrk 1, 31.08.2026):
| Electricity (exchange) | 22.53 c/kWh | 62% |
| Network fee | 5.12 c/kWh | 14% |
| Electricity excise | 0.21 c/kWh | 1% |
| Renewable-energy fee | 0.84 c/kWh | 2% |
| Security-of-supply fee | 0.76 c/kWh | 2% |
| VAT (24%) | 7.07 c/kWh | 19% |
| Total | 36.53 c/kWh |
Rates come from Gridea’s tariff engine — the same one that prices real invoices. The percentage is each part’s share of the total.
The profile factor shows how much more or less expensive your consumption is than the exchange average. A factor of 114% means you pay 14% more than the average because you consume in the pricier hours. A fixed offer can’t be compared against the raw exchange average — compare it against the average multiplied by your factor.
Structurally, the Nordic price level is set by Norwegian reservoir fill against the long-run median for that week. Gridea tracks this in your account, with its date — low fill means upward pressure on the price.
Gridea does not forecast the electricity price, nor advise which contract to sign. We show what your own data says and leave the decision to you.
It depends on your consumption pattern. A flexible, night-heavy profile usually wins on the exchange price; a profile that consumes in expensive hours may prefer fixed. Gridea computes your real factor and shows which would have cost you less.
A ratio showing how far your consumption diverges from the exchange average — computed from your own 15-minute history. Examples from real supply points: 69.7%, 114.1% and 183.1%.
No. Your real profile factor only exists once you connect your data in a Gridea account, because it’s computed from your own metered data. The chart above is an example pattern.
