Charging at home in Poland: the last 30 days

In the last 30 days (21 Sept – 20 Oct), the four cheapest hours in a row on an average day were 11:00–15:00, at PLN 0.872/kWh on average including network charges, taxes and levies.

Charging for 100 km (17 kWh) cost PLN 14.82 in those hours and PLN 28.04 between 17:00 and 21:00. Over 15,000 km a year, that is a difference of about PLN 1,982. The wholesale price was below zero for 8.5 hours in this period.

When is charging cheapest?

On a dynamic tariff you pay the wholesale price for every quarter-hour, plus the fixed components. Electricity is usually cheapest at night and around midday on sunny days, and dearest in the early evening, when demand peaks and solar output fades. A car plugged in overnight often needs only three or four hours – the planner puts them in the cheapest part of the night.

Smart charging means the wallbox or the car only charges in the cheapest quarter-hours, with pauses in between if needed. Many wallboxes and car apps do this automatically with dynamic tariffs. If you only have a start timer, choose “Timer”: the planner then finds the cheapest continuous block.

How much electricity does my car need?

Consumption figures come from the official data on every electric car newly registered in Europe (WLTP, measured at the socket, so charging losses are included). Small cars need about 14–15 kWh per 100 km, large SUVs more than 20 kWh. In winter, on motorways and on short trips with the heating on, consumption is higher – just enter your own figure.

FAQ

Is a dynamic tariff worth it for an electric car?
Usually yes, if the car charges at home regularly and flexibly: an EV often uses as much electricity in a year as a whole household, and almost all of it can be shifted to the cheapest hours. If you have to charge at fixed times during the day, a fixed price can be the better deal.
What charging power do I have at home?
About 2.3 kW from a household socket and usually 11 kW from a wallbox. Many cars charge at no more than 11 kW on AC anyway; 22 kW is rarely needed.
Why is electricity so expensive in the evening?
In the early evening demand rises just as solar generation ends. More expensive power stations have to step in, and the wholesale price climbs. At night demand falls again.
Does this apply to public chargers?
No. The planner uses household electricity prices for charging at home. At public chargers the operator's prices apply.
