Adding your tariff to equiwatt

Read on to find out how to add your tariff to your equiwatt account.

Connecting your tariff to equiwatt enables you to view your tariff information directly in the equiwatt app. If you have a time of use or agile (ToU) tariff, you will be able to view the low, middle and high peak rates.

For users with an export MPAN and tariff, you will also be able to connect this to your equiwatt account to enable you to get rewarded for exporting energy back to the grid.

PLEASE NOTE: You will need to have a smart meter that is sending half-hourly readings connected to your equiwatt account before you can connect your tariff to the app.

Step 1: Add tariff

  • Open the 'Manage' tab of the equiwatt app and select 'Energy Tariff'.
