i don't know who at BC Hydro* is in charge of their Web UX in their user account website, but man they have had this consumption data in one form or another for a long time and now that they have brought in the option for time-of-day based billing, they've improved the graphing even more!
It easily and simply shows, on a daily basis, what rate I am paying at what time and how much.
Beautiful!!
I can also add in the average temperature over that time, and also compare total daily consumption between this year and last. Tier 1 applies to the first 644kWh used of the billing month. Last month the Tier 1 applied to exactly half my consumption.
On my rate schedule (in CAD) the off-peak prices are:
Tier 1: 11.87 cents/kWh
Tier 2: 14.08 cents/kWh
On peak surcharge: 5 cents/kWh
Overnight discount: -5 cents/kWh
As an example, last month I was charged $10.40 for on-peak usage but got a discount of $25.90 for off peak time. After all is said and done, my overall average power cost for the month was 12.67 cents/kWh. The majority of that overnight usage is:
EV charging.
Overnight dishwasher/laundry/dryer/hot water use.
Pond pumps.
