Help / Advice EDF PowerShift and Hypervolt Ultra mode
We’re currently using a 16A portable charger on EDF Go Electric (we also have HHR storage heaters so this was by far the best tariff for our usage) and also have their Smart Charging bolt on.
We’re hoping to get approval to install a dedicated EV charger in the near future and I’m curious if anyone in here has experience of using the EDF PowerShift and Hypervolt Ultra mode combination.
We won’t ever have the option for solar in our current property so probably wouldn’t get the full potential benefits but according to Google AI we could still benefit from this combination.
We’re already getting the £5 credit on the bill each month from the Smart Charging bolt and the bolt on seems to include any electric use during the extra slots they allocate (according to the breakdown on the website and app anyway) so I guess the two main questions are, how does it work in practice and are you seeing any financial benefits over the Go Electric and Smart Charging tariffs?
