Pros and cons

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.
  • Unit rates of €0.21 to €0.50 keep the entry price in the middle of the market, at 13 of 23 brands compared.
  • Support runs on email, chat and help centre, and the chat channel suits quick questions about hourly pricing on a dynamic tariff.

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.
  • The fixed tariff lasts 12 months, a narrower spread than Powerpeers, which lists dynamic, fixed and variable.

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.

What it does well

A smart meter is required, which is the condition for the app view that 1,000,000 customers use. The supply is renewable at 100%, so a household buying green electricity does not have to look for a separate green tariff on top of a standard one.

Who runs it

Tibber trades in Germany as Tibber Deutschland GmbH, and the company is headquartered in Norway. Support runs on email, chat and help centre, so questions are handled by email, chat or the help centre rather than through a physical network operation.

Frequently asked questions

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.

Do I need a smart meter to join?+

Yes, a smart meter is required for Tibber's tariffs, and the service is built around it, with 1,000,000 customers listed on the German site and the app doing the metering work. A home that still needs a meter fitted cannot start a tariff until that work is done.

Which tariff types can I choose between?+

Tibber offers fixed and dynamic tariffs. The fixed option holds its rate for 12 months, which suits anyone who wants a known price, while the dynamic option follows the hourly market, which suits anyone willing to shift usage to cheaper hours.

Does Tibber supply gas as well as electricity?+

Supply covers electricity only, so a household that also wants gas would need a separate supplier for that. The tariff choice within the service is between a fixed rate and a dynamic one rather than between different fuels.

How green is the electricity?+

The renewable mix is 100% and it is based on certificates. That basis matters when comparing with suppliers that generate their own renewable power, because certificates and own generation are counted differently when a mix is described.

How do I get help?+

Support runs on email, chat and help centre, so questions can be sent by email, raised in the chat window or looked up in the help centre. The mobile app is part of the same setup and is where a customer checks usage and the hourly prices on a dynamic tariff.

Which countries does Tibber run in?+

Tibber serves Germany, Netherlands and Norway. The German business trades as Tibber Deutschland GmbH, and the company behind it is headquartered in Norway, so anyone outside those listed markets would need to check coverage before applying for a tariff.
