What If Home Energy
Know your energy costs.
A UK household energy app that answers one question: what would my bills be if I changed something? Model a change, compare it against what you pay now, and see the difference in pounds before you commit to anything.
What you can model
- Adding solarPanel size, self-consumption, and what you'd actually export.
- Adding a batteryIncluding time-shifting into an off-peak window.
- Switching tariffYour own rates, with exit fees and switch dates accounted for.
- Riding the price capWhat the Ofgem cap would cost you now, and next quarter.
- A heat pumpHeat demand from your actual home, with an efficiency you set, or a typical one.
- An electric vehicleHome and public charging, at the right rate for each.
- Better insulationWhat a filled cavity or a thicker loft would take off your heating.
What If Plus
An optional one-off purchase — not a subscription — for households on smarter tariffs. It adds tariffs with several cheap windows a day, a battery modelled hour by hour through your day, charts of your home on an average, a winter and a summer day, and reminders when your fix ends or Ofgem announces the next cap. Everything above stays free.
Your data stays on your phone
There is no account, no sign-in, and no analytics. Everything you enter is stored on your device, and we have no way to read it. One optional feature sends a partial postcode to look up your energy region — never your full address, and you can skip it. Read the full privacy policy.
