Meridian’s 4-hour free electricity offer significantly reduces Tesla users’ monthly electricity bills. This plan is perfect for a household of three adults and one child who are at home all day, using gas for cooking and boiling water.
The family commutes 50km per day with their Tesla, five days a week, and often takes longer trips on weekends. In this plan, Tesla charging during off-peak hours is completely free, with the charging process automatically starting at irregular times between 9 PM and 6 AM.
The four hours of free electricity are calculated separately and not included in the electric vehicle smart charging. You can choose these four hours from the time slots shown in the picture, and any changes made the previous day will take effect the next day.
Here’s a breakdown of the total electricity consumption:
– Total electricity consumption: 740 kWh
– Tesla charging: 300 kWh
– Four hours free: 218 kWh
– Electricity to be paid for: 221 kWh
– Total cost: 110 NZD
This plan not only saves money but also adds convenience and flexibility to your daily routine.
That’s interesting! I didn’t realize Tesla owners could save so much with Meridian’s plan. It seems like a great deal if you’re home during those four free hours and do most of your charging off-peak. Still, I wonder how practical it is for families who travel more on weekends.
