As soon as you connect your electric car or charging station to the tado° Smart Charging app, you can start saving based on your energy contract. Once you have set your tariffs and times in the tado° app, we optimise your charging plan to charge as much as possible at the cheapest tariffs. After each charging session, you will receive an estimate of how much you have saved on your electricity bill.
tado° Smart Charging can optimise your charging sessions based on energy market prices. These are based on the dynamic tariff plan of your energy supplier such as aWATTar, Octopus Agile, Tibber or Frank Energie.

"Good so far. Allows me to turn my dumb charger into a smart charger. And good for tracking consumption as my car doesn't record that kind of data."
