Tariff for three zones (peak, half-peak, night) for electricity in Moscow

Time zones

This period lasts from 23.00 to 07.00. At this time, the best rate applies. If a citizen works late, then it is more profitable to use the division of consumed energy into several phases. With electric stoves, in this case, you need to cook as much as possible at night in order to consume less energy during the day.

To save money when establishing this mode, you need to connect devices with high power only during the specified period . Morning is characterized by increased activity in the use of networks, as at this time many citizens get ready for work.

The peak zone refers to the time period when most people return home, that is, from 17.00 to 21.00. During this period, electricity is actively used.

In addition, there are two half-peak zones, which last from 10.00 to 17.00 and from 21.00 to 23.00. These intervals occupy the most significant period during the day. The cost of energy in this case is determined by average indicators, provided that a three-phase meter is installed in the apartment.

Important! If the premises are equipped with a two-phase meter, the calculation is made according to the daily tariff.

Cost of day and night tariff

The indicated values ​​are taken into account only by those who use a multi-tariff device in their apartment. If a single-tariff meter is installed, the calculation is made at a single tariff . In this case, the time of day is not taken into account.

With a gas stove at home, you don’t have to spend money on installing a new meter and pay for energy at one tariff, since this device contributes to significant savings.

Features of multi-tariff meters

A multi-tariff meter is a device for metering consumed electricity that calculates several indicators at once. This distinguishes it from a conventional device, which does not differentiate between day and night flow. The essence of the division is that electricity costs less at night, so it is more profitable to use it at night.

The operation of the power plant is continuous. The amount of resource produced after midnight does not decrease, and consumption at night decreases. To ensure its implementation, the state financially stimulates the use of energy at night.

Each consumer can evaluate whether it is profitable to install such a device. The meter will save money if:

• the user is nocturnal (turns on an electric kettle or stove, washing machine, etc. at night);
• The room is equipped with 24-hour operating devices and systems: electric heating, boiler, heated floors, refrigerator, and so on.

If this metering method is preferable for the consumer, you can buy a multi-tariff meter.

The price of such a device is higher than the cost of a standard device. This is due to a more complex organization and the presence of built-in electronics. However, the reduction in the amount in the electricity bill will gradually offset the costs.

Conveniently, installation of the device does not require additional permissions.
