What is 'Time of Use' pricing?

Aurora PAY AS YOU GO offers Time of Use pricing, which means that you can take advantage of different electricity rates at different times of the day. As the day goes on the rates get cheaper. You'll also notice that there are pricing combinations for weekdays, weekends and different months of the year. During these timeslots all of your appliances will be charged at these rates. So by organising your electricity use carefully you can take advantage of cheaper rates.
