Use Case

Cut EV Charging Costs by Up to 40%

Feed real-time day-ahead prices into your charging algorithm to shift sessions to the cheapest hours - automatically.

The Problem

EV charging apps that use fixed schedules leave money on the table. Day-ahead electricity prices fluctuate by a factor of 3–10× between cheapest and most expensive hours. Without live tariff data, you cannot optimize when to charge.

The Solution

tounify delivers EPEX Spot and Nord Pool day-ahead prices for 19+ European countries - updated daily as soon as new prices are published (typically by 13:00 CET). Your algorithm gets the exact per-hour price array it needs to find the cheapest charging window.

What you get

20–40% cost reduction

End users save on every charging session by shifting load to off-peak hours.

Daily price updates

Day-ahead prices arrive by 13:00 CET, giving your app 11+ hours to plan the next day.

Static tariffs included

For customers on fixed-rate plans, static tariff data covers time-of-use and day/night rates.

No consent required

Direct B2B API - no end-user OAuth flows or data sharing agreements needed.
