Audited planning profile
This standard weekly profile applies a 1× editable baseline across 7 model periods to the refrigerator use buffer model.
Use the buffered result for planning and the unbuffered result as the transparent baseline. Use this as the central case, then compare a lean and conservative profile. Account for weekday/weekend variation and incomplete weeks.
Local tariffs, taxes, seasonal efficiency and regulated charges are not inferred automatically.
Check a recent bill, device specification and current tariff before committing to a purchase or retrofit.
