FreePhase comparison
EDF FreePhase Dynamic vs Static
Compare EDF FreePhase Dynamic and Static pricing, predictability, free periods, exit terms and household flexibility.
| Question | Dynamic | Static |
|---|---|---|
| Daily schedule | Red 4pm–7pm, Green 11pm–6am, Amber at other times | The same Red, Amber and Green schedule |
| Unit prices | May change daily using EDF’s market-linked method | Fixed for the plan term |
| Planning effort | Check published today/tomorrow prices regularly | Use the repeating clock schedule |
| Free electricity | Exact 0p periods can appear in published prices | EDF describes qualifying free moments as monthly account credits |
| Price risk | Daily prices can rise or fall; individual unit rates are subject to EDF’s stated cap | More predictable rates, but peak use remains relatively expensive |
| Exit terms | EDF currently describes no exit fee and a nine-month rejoin restriction after leaving | Exit fees may apply unless the customer qualifies for EDF’s stated Flextras treatment |
Which one may fit
Dynamic may fit a household that will check prices, automate flexible demand and tolerate daily movement. Static may fit a household that can avoid 4pm–7pm but wants fixed unit prices.
Neither choice is automatically cheapest. Compare your regional rates and realistic consumption pattern in the tariff comparer.
