Pros and cons
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.
Tibber
Pros
- Tariffs in fixed and dynamic shapes let you pick a known rate or follow the market, and the fuel is listed as electricity so the quote stays simple.
- The renewable mix is 100% and rests on certificates, which is how a household backs a green claim on an ordinary electricity supply.
- 1,000,000 customers use the service, and the mobile app is central to how the tariff and usage are managed day to day.
Cons
- A smart meter is required, so a home waiting on an installation has to fit one before a Tibber tariff can start.
- Support runs on email, chat and help centre only, so an urgent billing problem has to go in writing or into a chat window.
- Supply covers electricity, so anyone wanting gas alongside electricity needs a second supplier.
Who each suits
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.
Tibber
Who it suits
- Households in Germany, Netherlands and Norway that already run, or can fit, a smart meter and want their electricity managed from a mobile app.
- People who like choosing their own level of risk, since fixed and dynamic tariffs cover a fixed rate alongside a market-linked one.
- Buyers who put green credentials first, as the mix is 100% and rests on certificates.
Who should look elsewhere
- Households without a smart meter, and anyone wanting gas, because supply covers electricity only.
- Buyers who want to phone a supplier, since support runs on email, chat and help centre only.
- Shoppers who want a variable or green option alongside fixed, where Powerpeers lists dynamic, fixed and variable.

Questions about each
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.
Tibber
What does a unit of Tibber electricity cost?+
Tibber publishes a unit rate of €0.21 to €0.50, and on the comparison it ranks 13 of 23 brands on that figure. That is a mid-range position, so the entry price is neither the sharpest nor the heaviest among the suppliers listed.
What happens when the fixed term ends?+
The fixed tariff is priced for a term of 12 months, with unit rates published as €0.21 to €0.50. Since that rate covers the term it is bought for, the figure worth checking before signing is what applies once the term rolls over, and the dynamic option is the alternative at that point.
