Dynamic electricity tariffs will be billed every 15 minutes — Tibber prepares for Oct 2025
Summary: From autumn 2025 electricity prices in Germany will be settled in 15-minute intervals to match changes in European market trading. Tibber, a major provider of dynamic tariffs, has announced it will switch to 15-minute pricing to reflect the new market cadence.
Key points
- Why the change: European electricity trading is moving from hourly to 15-minute settlement, so retail prices will follow.
- Timing: The switch is scheduled for autumn 2025 (targeted for 30 Sept / Oct 2025).
- Impact for consumers: More granular prices should let you shift consumption to cheaper 15-minute windows, especially with a smart meter and smart controls.
- Providers: Tibber has confirmed plans to adopt 15-minute pricing. Other suppliers trading on the exchange will follow suit.
