Feature Request: Fixed Pricing Based on Day of Week #51

Open jakest opened 4 months ago

jakest commented 4 months ago

My power plan is as follows:

Monday - Friday

Saturday - Sunday

When I charge during the weekend, the costs are calculated at a high tier rate if charging during one of the high tier times (only applicable on weekdays) as TeslaMateAgile can’t currently be setup with pricing tiers dependent upon the day of the week.

It would be amazing to be able to set up Fixed Pricing based on the day of the week to account for that.

Hello! Is this quite a common thing to have it vary across different days of the week? I've heard of it varying across the year before e.g. summer and winter pricing but not really across a week before.

If you have Home Assistant I'd recommend using that to set your prices as dynamically as you like, details in the readme of how to do that. If not, I could try to add something for this but I'm not sure when I'll be able to get around to it. Contributions welcome of course!

It does seem to be fairly common, at least in the mountain west states. The pricing also varies across the year (summer vs winter) similar to what you’ve mentioned, so I have a reminder to adjust the config when those hours adjust.

The full day on the weekend is always in the lower tier pricing.

I don’t have Home Assistant currently, but maybe it’s time to check that out.
