Whereas an ability to select is good, Singaporeans face one more problem: making a little sense of over 13 retailers as well as 52 standard Singapore electricity tariff plans they provide, and non-standard plans.
Here are some questions you have to ask that will help you to make a little sense of OEM marketplace or make best decision for the household.
Do You Want Fixed Price, Discount-Off Tariff, Or Peak or Off-Peak Plan?
In order, to help the consumers to compare the plans over retailers, there are 2 kinds of the standard plans defined: the Fixed Price and the Discount off Regulated. The third types, Peak & Off-Peak plan will be offered by a few retailers, however, are considered as the non-standard as how every retailer designates the peak hours differs.
