Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action
Energy Challenges: Discussion
Mr. John Melvin:
Based on the customer behaviour trial, customers who used time-of-use electricity tariffs moved something like 8% of their demand in the peak times away from those times — in other words, away from the more expensive times to the less expensive times. Customers also used something in the order of 2% less across the whole year just by having better information on when electricity was being used. Those two figures are from memory. I hope I have them the right way around. If they are not, we will correct them. They reflect the magnitude at the time based on the prices at the time.
