It is worth remembering that 2024 is full of new developments in the field of electricity tariffs. On January 1, a new formula for calculating the regulated electricity tariff, the so-called “Voluntary Price for Small Consumers” (PVPC), came into force, which covers about 8.5 million consumers, that is, about a third of all domestic consumers.
Unlike the calculation methodology used so far, introduced by the Electrical Sector Law 24/2013 and regulated by Royal Decree 216/2014, where the final price was fully indexed to the daily wholesale market, the new formula will partly include long-term forward price signals. To this end, since July 1 last year, reference marketers have been pre-purchasing part of the energy that the PVPC tariff will consume in 2024.
To reduce your consumption and lower your energy bills, you can follow these tips:
Appliances
To reduce the consumption of household appliances, it is advisable to:
– Turn off electrical appliances when you are away from home for a long period (vacation). Especially the fridge freezer which consumes up to 30% of the total consumption of the house.
– Don’t leave them on standby as they continue to spend even when they are not consuming.
– Try to use a sundial to dry your clothes.
Hot water
It is always recommended:
– Use hot water wisely. It is advisable to ensure that the tap is never left open more than necessary.
– Overall water temperature between 30°C and 35°C It may be enough.
Lightning
It is advisable:
– Gradually replace incandescent and halogen lamps with LED lamps, as they consume ten times less energy than incandescent lamps and have a service life ten times longer, saving up to 85% of energy.
– Make the most of natural light by turning off lights in naturally lit areas and anywhere there are open spaces or glass walls that encourage passive viewing.
