What is the SimplyFair12 tariff?

SimplyFair12 is a version of our classic SimplyFair tariff β€” based on the same principle: you pay for electricity at cost price, with no markup, no hidden fees, and full transparency.

The key difference is:
πŸ‘‰ You receive a 12-month price guarantee on both your energy price (ct/kWh) and your base fee.
This makes SimplyFair12 ideal for customers who want predictability and stability.


How is the price structured in the SimplyFair12 tariff?

1. Monthly base fee

  • 7 € Ostrom base fee

  • plus the base fee of your local grid operator

2. Energy price (ct/kWh)

  • You receive electricity at pure cost price

  • No margins added

  • 12-month fixed energy price: your rate per kWh stays the same for an entire year


How is billing handled in SimplyFair12?

Monthly deposit (Abschlag)

You pay a monthly deposit based on your estimated yearly consumption.

Yearly consumption reconciliation

Once per year, or when you cancel your contract, we compare:

  • If you consumed less than you paid β†’ you receive a refund

  • If you consumed more β†’ you receive an additional invoice

The process works exactly like SimplyFair β€” but your prices stay stable for 12 months.


How is the monthly deposit calculated?

Your monthly deposit is based on:

  1. Your estimated annual consumption

  2. The SimplyFair12 energy price (with 12-month guarantee)

  3. The monthly base fee (7 € + grid operator fee)

Formula:
​(Estimated annual consumption Γ— energy price) + (12 Γ— base fee) Γ· 12

You can adjust your monthly deposit at any time in the app if your usage changes.


In short:

SimplyFair12 gives you the same transparency and fairness as SimplyFair β€” with the added benefit of a 12-month price guarantee for maximum security.
