Pros and cons
Alperia
Pros
- Exit fees are €0, so leaving early carries no charge on the green plans
- Green supply runs at 100% renewable, backed by certificates
- A €0.13 unit rate that ranks ahead of many suppliers on unit rate alone
Cons
- Supply is limited to Trentino Alto Adige, so most of the country cannot switch to it
- The standing charge of €109 ranks mid-table rather than near the cheapest
- Green claims rest on certificates rather than on the supplier's own generation
Rabot Energy
Pros
- An exit fee of €0 places Rabot Energy at 1 of 29 brands ranked on that measure, the strongest of its three placements.
- Green supply of 100% on a certificates basis, and a smart meter is not required, so the green option needs no new meter.
- Tariff types run dynamic, fixed and ev, putting fixed, dynamic, EV and green with a single supplier.
Cons
- A unit rate of €0.27 ranks 14 of 23 brands on that measure, so Rabot Energy is not the cheapest per unit here.
- The standing charge of €15 ranks 9 of 16, and it lands on the bill whatever you consume.
- Supply is electricity only, electricity, so a household that also holds a gas contract needs a second supplier.
Who each suits
Alperia
Who it suits
- Households in Trentino Alto Adige that want renewable electricity at a fair unit rate
- Anyone planning to move house or supplier within the fixed term, since exit fees are €0
- EV owners who want solar divert and installation included with their charger
Who should look elsewhere
- Households outside Trentino Alto Adige, since it serves IT only
- EV drivers who want a time of use tariff, which Powerpeers and Endesa both list
- Shoppers chasing the lowest unit rate in the market rather than a fair mid-table one
Rabot Energy
Who it suits
- Households in DE that want a green electricity tariff with a full year of fixed pricing and no exit fee.
- Drivers and EV owners, since dynamic, fixed and ev includes an EV tariff alongside fixed and dynamic.
- People who would rather not arrange new metering: a smart meter is not required.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone set on a variable tariff: Powerpeers lists dynamic, fixed and variable, and variable pricing is not in Rabot Energy's dynamic, fixed and ev.
- Households that want prepay or time-of-use pricing, both of which appear in fixed, ev and time of use.
- Buyers shopping mainly on the price per unit, given the mid-table position at 14 of 23.

Questions about each
Alperia
Does it cost anything to leave Alperia early?+
No. Exit fees on the green plans are €0, so you can switch supplier before the term ends without a charge. Fixed terms still run for 12, 36 and 60, but the commitment does not come with a penalty for walking away from it.
How renewable is the green electricity?+
The green plans are described as 100% renewable. That claim is backed by certificates rather than by electricity the supplier generates itself, which is worth weighing if you prefer supply from owned generation.
Rabot Energy
What does Rabot Energy charge for electricity?+
Rabot Energy's published figures are a unit rate of €0.27 and a standing charge of €15, with an exit fee of €0. The unit rate covers the power you actually consume, while the standing charge is a fixed cost for holding a connection at all. Budget with both figures side by side.
Is there an exit fee if I switch away from Rabot Energy?+
The exit fee is €0, so there is nothing to pay for ending the contract early, and that is the measure on which Rabot Energy sits at 1 of 29 brands. A free exit also suits renters and anyone who expects to move house during the term.
