Tibber Trigger 2.1

THIS IS THE NEW QUARTER-HOURLY VERSION

This QuickApp calculates the cheapest prices for using appliances based on the hourly Tibber energy prices. 
This QuickApp is especially useful for appliances (like charging your car and washing the dishes) that need to run once a day, within a timeframe and during some hours. 
You can use more than one instance of this QuickApp if you need more than one appliance to start in the cheapest hour but not within the same timeslot. 

 

Tibber today and tomorrow prices
The tomorrow prices are available from 13:00 hour. 
If the tomorrow prices aren't available yet and the timeslot is (partially) tomorrow, a temporary calculation and start-stop plan is made with the today prices, until the tomorrow prices are available. 
If the start time plus duration is (partially) tomorrow, for example start time 22:00 and duration 2 hours, the calculation can be made from 13:00 hour when the tomorrow prices are available. 

 

 

At 22:00 the binary switch will turn ON and at 00:00 the binary switch will turn OFF. 

You would still have to create a script, triggers by this binary switch, to actually turn on the charging of your car, or turn on the dishwasher. 

 

IMPORTANT
This QuickApp needs the Tibber Monitor QuickApp (THE NEW QUARTER-HOURLY VERSION) to run on your HC3. It is important to synchronise this QuickApp with the timing of your Tibber Monitor QuickApp.
