15 Ways to Lower Your Electric Bill in Spain
Spanish electricity bills can be complex. Between the power market fluctuations and the 'potencia' charges, many households pay more than they should. Here is how to take control.
Optimize Your Potencia
The fixed part of your bill (potencia contratada) is often set too high. Reducing it by just 1kW can save you about €50 per year.
Switch to a Better Tariff
If you haven't switched in over 12 months, you are likely on an outdated, expensive rate. Comparing takes 2 minutes.
Use Appliances During 'Valle' Hours
If you have a time-of-use tariff, running your washing machine and dishwasher between 00:00 and 08:00 is significantly cheaper.
