�� EDF tempo, what is ?

EDF tempo housing

The Tempo option is one of the three options offered by EDF to individuals wishing to benefit from the regulated electricity rate (blue rate). With six different kWh tempo prices applicable depending on the day and the time of the day, the tempo option is the most complex. The purpose of the tempo option is to rebalance supply and demand, and reduce energy consumption peaks: advantageous prices when demand is low and high prices otherwise.

In return for a very high price during days of high demand in electricity (22 days peak in winter), customers benefit from more advantageous prices the rest of the time. Optional tempo, the year is divided into three periods:

�� 22 red days Tempo EDF

THE KWH price is very high especially in full hours during 22 days per year especially during cold periods or winter. Every day red intervene between November 1ᵉʳ and March 31. Red days cannot be understood until Monday to Friday, Never weekends and holidays; There can therefore be over 5 red days in a row. The objective of the red days is to prevent homes from consuming electricity when demand is high at EDF.

⚪ 43 White days Tempo EDF

THE KWH price is moderately high for 43 days a year. White days normally intervene from October 1 to May 31. In general, white days include neither weekends or holidays. The price of white days is the same as the price per kWh of the EDF blue price option.

�� 300 blue days Tempo EDF

THE electricity price is advantageous the rest of the time, excluding red and white days, or 300 days per year. In general, Sundays are always blue days.

�� Tempo EDF prices

The price per kWh of red days in off -peak hours (tempo option) is the only price more expensive than the base option or the off -peak hour option of the regulated rate. The rest of the time, the price of kWh is very competitive.

For each of these types of days:

  • A full hours : more expensive, from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m.;
  • A off -peak price : cheaper, from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.

So there is a total of Six prizes per kWh Different for tempo EDF. The subscription price is very slightly lower Optional tempo compared to the HP/HC option except for the power 36 KVA. The tempo rate is aimed at consumers whose meter power is greater than 6 kVA.

�� Is the EDF tempo option advantageous ?

The tempo option is interesting for consumers who can afford to considerably reduce their electricity consumption during the 22 annual advanced winter days. Indeed, the price per kWh in full hours In the red day is almost 6 times higher than the price per kilowatt in full hours in blue day. The color of the day is announced the day before at 8 p.m.: It is therefore better to be flexible in your needs to make the tempo EDF option profitable.

As the red days are divided into the winter period (season of electricity demand peaks), the tempo option is difficult to suit consumers heated to electricity. On the other hand, some consumers who use an alternative mode of heating (a wood stove for example), can find their account.

Since the energy crisis that started in September 2021, the KWH tempo price in blue and white days is competitive Compared to the optional blue price for full hours off -peak hours. Even the price of kWh in red days in off -peak hours is also interesting Compared to the classic blue price in off -peak hours. Only the price per kWh in red days in full hours are more expensive that the hours full of the classic blue price.

The EDF blue price in Tempo option is thus one of the most advantageous electricity offers on the energy market since the context of the global crisis that has been lost since the end of 2021.

Despite the price increase in the tempo option on February 1, 2023, it Still competitive in comparison to the full/off -peak hour option of the regulated blue price of EDF. Indeed, the price of the subscription increases for all the meter powers and on average by +2.78 %, but the price per kWh decreases everywhere, except for the hollow day blue (+12 %) and the Full red day (+22 %).

To avoid any unpleasant surprises, always check the indicator of your counter, and rely on this information in the event of a contradiction between the information available on the EDF website and that displayed by your case.

The price per kWh under the tempo option is among the most advantageous on the market, as we see by making the comparison with the HPHC blue price offer and the Eco Totalenergies hours offer.

“This year, the government authorized us to campaign towards our customers at the TRV rate, but we are not allowed to do so towards prospects. There will certainly be many more tempo customers at the end of the year than at the beginning ” – specifies Marc Benayoun, executive director of the EDF group at La Tribune
