Which is better, Yleissähkö or Aikasähkö?

Night and seasonal products pay off when consumption moves to the night, for example with storage heating or a hot-water tank. Check your own hourly consumption in Fingrid’s Datahub.
Can I switch my network company?

How much is the electricity tax?
Household electricity tax (tax class I) is 2.918 c/kWh including 25.5 % VAT. It includes the security-of-supply fee and is the same with every network company.
Which electricity contract is cheapest for you?
