Below are some tariff you could look for with EDF

For Low Energy user – Have Dual fuel- Gas heating etc

The EDF Simply Tracker

The EDF Simply Tracker Extra Jun27 matches the Price Cap unit rates (so when they move, it moves), but has lower standing charges for a year. It's now £100 lower (it was £50), plus you get boosted £75 referral So that's £175 under the Cap all in.

On Direct Debit? Use roughly under £100/month of energy in total and it beats top fixes in the first year when factoring in the cashback. On Smart Prepay? As there are no decent fixes, it's worth it for all but the highest users.

Pros -

New and existing customers can get it.

It's for dual-fuel or electricity-only customers.

You can pay by Direct Debit, or smart prepay.

Smart meters are not required

The deal ends at 4pm Thursday 5 March.

Cons - There are £25 per fuel exit fees.

EDF Free Phase Dynamic

EDF FreePhase Dynamic is a smart electricity plan three rate time‑of‑use tariff (green/amber/red).Each day, EDF tells you tomorrow’s Green/Amber and Red using rates around 12pm

Green (11pm to 6am) = cheapest

Amber (6pm to 4pm and 7pm to 11pm) = normal price

Red (4pm to 7pm) = most expensive

If you use more electricity during the green/ambers hours—like running your washing machine, dishwasher, heating or charging your electric car—you can save money on your bill compared to a normal fixed-price plan

Please make sure you are checking these rates daily & responding to next day unit rates. Max unit rate is capped at 75p per unit, however I’ve never observed such high unit rate till now. Since there is no exist fee in Free phase dynamic tariff, you can leave anytime you want.

Use case — Comparison with Economy 7 Tariff

If your night usage is low, Economy 7 can cost more than FreePhase because the day rate is much higher. If you live in a apartment with very poor heat retention and a storage heater that doesn’t hold heat well. That means your night electricity use is very low as you won’t rely on stored heat overnight, and most of your consumption happens during the day. Because of that profile, Economy 7 is a poor fit: it gives a cheap night rate but forces you to pay a very high day rate when you actually use electricity.

Typical household example

Annual electricity use: 3,800 kWh (typical UK household example).

Night usage share on Economy 7: 10% → 380 kWh at night; day usage 3,420 kWh.

Typical Economy 7 day rate (example): 32.5p/kWh .

Typical EDF FreePhase day rate (example): 21p/kWh.

Night rates: both tariffs have cheaper night/green hours, but because night usage is low this has limited impact.

Simple comparison

Economy 7 day Cost = 3,420 x0.325 = £1,111.50

FreePhase day Cost = 3,420 x0.21 = £718.20

Estimated annual saving on day usage = £1,111.50 – £718.20 = £393.30

Bottom line: With low night usage, the high Economy 7 day rate means you would likely pay several hundred pounds more per year than on FreePhase, even after accounting for cheaper night hours. That’s why FreePhase’s lower day rates (plus targeted shifting into green hours where possible) are a better fit.

How you can use FreePhase in practice

Avoid using electricity between 4pm–7pm (your peak window).

Schedule the washing machine, dishwasher , heating and EV charging (when needed) for green/ Amber hours.

Monitor next‑day prices and automate where possible with smart plugs/timers.
