How is an electricity bill calculated?

But besides these prices Please note that invoices from affected consumers regulated market or Voluntary Small Consumer Price (PVPC) They consist of an energy term that is consumed and changes every hour. This is why light is never “free”.

This, in turn, is formed due to pool price, charges and other services necessary for the proper functioning of the electrical system. In addition, revenues include other concepts such as contract capacity, taxes (eg VAT) and equipment rental.

He final cost This is what you will need to take into account to try to save money and choose the cheapest time slots to use the appliances that consume the most, such as the washing machine, air conditioner or dishwasher.

Thus, price of light What is consumed (energy term) in a regulated tariff depends on several factors, so it can never be free, even if the price on the wholesale market is zero euros per hour.

From January 1, 2024 new PVPC calculation structure to index it to the prices of forward markets and reduce its volatility, which affects the calculation of energy resources of the regulated tariff. This hourly price curve is the result of adding up the cost of energy production (the “pool”), transportation and distribution charges, and fees corresponding to the energy consumed.

For my part, production cost It consists of an hourly price derived from daily energy market data published by the Iberian Electricity Market Operator (OMIE). In addition, these prices also take into account the cost of customization services managed by Red Eléctrica as system operator, in addition to other concepts included in the current regulations.

He PVCTariff 2.0 TD, effective June 1, 2021, replaces the three that existed before May 31, 2021, with a single tariff that has a three-period time discrimination for the application of tolls and regulatory charges.

Three appliances that are increasing your energy bills

When we are buying new equipmentIt is important to consider three fundamental aspects: their energy efficiency, using them correctly (some even have saving modes) and ensuring that their consumption adapts to our electricity bill. However, there are some devices that tend to consume more power than others.

A dishwasher, although not found in every home, is one of those appliances that requires the highest energy consumption. According to OCU calculations, it can consume up to 246 kWh per year, which is approximately 7% of total energy consumption and leads to an additional 74 euros on the annual electricity bill. The same thing happens with a washing machine, which can consume up to 255 kWh per year, that is, about 77 euros in addition to the annual bill. Finally, and logically, a refrigerator whose average consumption is 662 kWh per year, which means an increase in the annual rate of approximately 199 euros in the case of PVPC.
