Effekttariff Simulation Report

What this proves: Single-phase installations (common in older Swedish homes and apartments) have different current calculations than 3-phase. For the same power (e.g., 2.3 kW), a single-phase home draws 10A while a 3-phase home draws only 3.3A per phase. This simulation uses lower power levels typical of single-phase homes (max 2.5 kW) and shows that the system correctly calculates current limits for 1-phase installations. The limit output will be in the 8-16A range rather than the 5-8A typical of 3-phase systems.

Why No Savings? This simulation has no battery configured. The effekttariff node outputs a current limit signal, but without a battery to discharge, there's nothing to cover the difference when consumption exceeds the limit. The grid must supply all power, so peaks cannot be reduced.

What This Shows: The system correctly tracks your top 3 peaks during peak hours and calculates your effektavgift at approximately 125 SEK/month. This monitoring alone is valuable for understanding your consumption patterns.

To Actually Reduce Peaks: You need a battery that can discharge during high-consumption moments. The node tells your ESS "limit grid to X amps" - the battery covers the rest. See the batteryCharging scenario for a 30-40% reduction example, potentially saving 50-63 SEK/month.
