Amber: dynamic wholesale prices

When Amber is connected, Grid shows live wholesale prices. Buy now, sell now, forecast low and peak update through the day. A 24-hour market forecast plots buy price, feed-in and renewables. Demand windows are identified when the feed includes them; VPPiQ Home does not estimate a demand charge dollar amount.

This is the dynamic view. Cents change through the day. Manage reviews the Amber connection; it is not a bill.

Confirmed retail tariff: static plan rates

When you confirmed a published or bill-matched retail plan, Grid shows that snapshot instead of wholesale prices. Import and feed-in rates follow the plan’s time-of-use windows. Free-energy and demand-condition bands can appear on the 48-hour schedule when the plan includes them.

This is the static view. Rates come from the plan you confirmed, not from live wholesale prices.

Shoulder, peak, free-energy and feed-in windows are the confirmed terms. A later catalogue refresh does not silently replace them.
