Electricity Price Sensor
The Number of quarters cheapest quarters are between From (HH:MM) and To (HH:MM)
Use this to check if today's cheapest quarters happen to fall within your preferred time window. Helpful for deciding whether to run a device now or wait for a better opportunity.
Electricity Price Sensor
It is one of the Cheapest quarters cheapest quarters between Cheap from (HH:MM) and Cheap to (HH:MM) and at least Min spread (kr) kr cheaper than one of the Most expensive quarters most expensive quarters between Expensive from (HH:MM) and Expensive to (HH:MM)
Advanced condition for battery charging optimization. Checks if you're in a cheap quarter AND the price spread to expensive quarters is large enough to justify charging. Use this to only charge batteries when there's significant savings potential.
Electricity Price Sensor
It is cheap Cheapest quarters (charge) in Cheap from (HH:MM)-Cheap to (HH:MM) vs top Expensive quarters (sell) in Expensive from (HH:MM)-Expensive to (HH:MM), spread >= Min spread (kr) kr
Use this for battery arbitrage - selling stored energy during expensive quarters. Triggers when you're in an expensive quarter AND the price spread vs cheap charging quarters meets your minimum threshold. Set spread to cover battery losses (typically 0.20-0.50 kr/kWh for round-trip efficiency).
Electricity Price Sensor
Average price for coming Hours ahead hours is below Max average (öre/kWh) öre/kWh
Check if the average electricity price for the coming X hours is below a threshold. Useful for deciding when to run devices based on upcoming price trends.
Electricity Price Sensor
Cheapest Quarters to compare quarters Today from (HH:MM)-Today to (HH:MM) today are cheaper than the same number between Tomorrow from (HH:MM)-Tomorrow to (HH:MM) tomorrow
Use this to decide between running a device today or waiting until tomorrow. Compares specific time windows across days. Perfect for flexible loads where you can choose which day to run - only run today if it's actually cheaper than tomorrow.
Electricity Price Sensor
It is the Consecutive quarters cheapest quarters in a row within Hours ahead hours
Use this for devices requiring uninterrupted runtime with a forward-looking horizon. Unlike the time-window version, this looks ahead from now. Perfect for starting a 2-hour wash cycle during the cheapest consecutive block in the next 12 hours.
Electricity Price Sensor
It is among the Number of quarters cheapest quarters before Before (HH:MM)
Use this when something must be done before a deadline. Looks ahead to tomorrow if the time has already passed today. Perfect for ensuring EV is charged before you leave for work, or water is heated before morning showers.
Electricity Price Sensor
It is in the cheapest Minutes minutes between From (HH:MM) and To (HH:MM)
Use this for devices that need to run continuously for a specific duration. Perfect for washing machines, dryers, or any appliance that must complete a full cycle without interruption.
Electricity Price Sensor
It is one of the Number of quarters cheapest quarters of the day
Use this to run devices during the cheapest quarters of the day. Great for flexible loads like water heaters, EV charging, or dishwashers that can run anytime during the day.
Electricity Price Sensor
It is one of the Number of quarters cheapest quarters in the next Hours ahead hours
Use this for forward-looking optimization across multiple days. Unlike the daily version, this looks ahead a specific number of hours (up to 48h when tomorrow's prices are available). Great for longer-term planning.
Electricity Price Sensor
It is one of the Number of quarters cheapest quarters between From (HH:MM) and To (HH:MM)
Use this to find cheap quarters within a specific time window. Perfect for devices that must run during certain hours, like charging an EV overnight (22:00-06:00) or running a pool pump during daytime.
Electricity Price Sensor
It is among the Most expensive count most expensive and not in the top Exclude top
Use this to identify 'moderately expensive' quarters while excluding the absolute peaks. Useful for gradual load reduction - reduce some loads in this band, and reduce more during peak quarters.
Electricity Price Sensor
It is among the Number of quarters most expensive quarters before Before (HH:MM)
Use this to identify expensive quarters that occur before a specific time. Looks ahead to tomorrow if the time has already passed today. Useful for avoiding morning peak prices before work, or detecting when to delay device usage.
Electricity Price Sensor
It is in the most expensive Minutes minutes between From (HH:MM) and To (HH:MM)
Use this to detect when you're in a continuous expensive period. Good for reducing power consumption or switching to battery/backup power during extended high-price periods.
Electricity Price Sensor
It is one of the Number of quarters most expensive quarters of the day
Use this to avoid running devices during peak price hours. Great for temporarily pausing non-essential loads or switching to battery/solar power during expensive quarters.
Electricity Price Sensor
It is one of the Number of quarters most expensive quarters between From (HH:MM) and To (HH:MM)
Use this to identify the most expensive quarters within a specific time window. Useful for avoiding peak prices during typical high-demand hours like mornings (06:00-09:00) or evenings (17:00-20:00).
Electricity Price Sensor
It is optimal to charge Energy needed (kWh) kWh at Charging power (kW) kW before Ready by (HH:MM) (Mode)
Calculates the cheapest time slots to charge a specific amount of energy before a deadline. Returns true when you're in one of the optimal quarters. Choose 'Cheapest quarters' for maximum savings (may have gaps) or 'Continuous period' for uninterrupted charging.
Electricity Price Sensor
Price is Percent% above today's average
Use this to detect when prices are significantly above average. Good for triggering power-saving modes or switching to alternative energy sources during relatively expensive periods.
Electricity Price Sensor
Price is Percent% below today's average
Use this for a relative price comparison that adapts to daily conditions. Great when you want to run devices during 'good' price periods without setting a fixed threshold that may not suit all days.
Electricity Price Sensor
Price is below Threshold (öre/kWh) öre/kWh
Use this when you have a specific price limit in mind. Ideal for setting a maximum price you're willing to pay, regardless of daily price fluctuations.
Electricity Price Sensor
Price is Percent% below average for next Hours ahead hours
Use this for forward-looking relative comparison. Checks if the current price is significantly below the average of upcoming hours. Great for detecting good buying opportunities when prices are expected to rise.
Electricity Price Sensor
The electricity price is negative (below 0)
Triggers when electricity prices go below zero. This happens during high wind/solar production when there's excess power. Perfect for running heavy loads for free (or getting paid to consume)!
Electricity Price Sensor
Price difference in next Quarters ahead quarters is at most Max spread (kr) kr
Use this to check if upcoming prices are stable. When true, there's little benefit in waiting for a better price. When false (high variation), it may be worth delaying consumption to a cheaper upcoming quarter.
Electricity Price Sensor
Today's price difference is at most Max spread (kr) kr
Use this to detect 'flat' price days where timing doesn't matter much. When price variation is low, you can run devices anytime without significant cost difference. Also useful for disabling complex scheduling on stable-price days.
