Last 14 days: Where were the 4 cheapest hours per day according to the forecast (green) – and where actually (blue)? Overlaps show accuracy.
Scenario: Your EV arrives on Wednesday at 6pm with an empty battery. We compare three optimization strategies:

Based on 52 charges per year (40 kWh)
The annual savings were calculated as the difference between immediate charging (Wednesday 6pm) and charging during the 4 cheapest hours in the respective forecast period.
Optimization only possible until Thursday (Day-Ahead prices available at noon for next day)
Optimization from Wednesday 6pm to Friday 6pm possible (48h forecast horizon)
Optimization from Wednesday 6pm to Sunday 6pm possible (4 day forecast horizon)
Savings = (Immediate charging Wednesday 6pm - price of 4 cheapest hours in forecast period) × 40 kWh
Actual annual savings may vary depending on your electricity tariff, charging speed and charging behavior. We simulate a user who charges their 40 kWh car once a week.
