We investigated the root cause and were able to mitigate the problem. We will continue monitoring if the problem occurs again.

🚀 New features​

Locked spot price support for tariffs​

Tariffs now support a new price element type: ENERGY_SPOT_LOCKED. With ENERGY_SPOT_LOCKED you can calculate the price for the charging session based on the spot price given on the start of the charging session. This spot price will then be used for the entirety of the session. This allows for a more dynamic approach on creating tariffs on eMabler Platform!

Adding an ENERGY_SPOT_LOCKED tariff

You can create a new locked spot price by giving the bidding area, margin and tax percentage. Price of the current spot price on the start time of the charging session will be used to calculate the price for the entire charging session.


Viewing an ENERGY_SPOT_LOCKED tariff

Today's spot prices are visible on the tariff page

New Charging Data Records page​

You can now view Charging Data Records through the eMabler UI! Charging Data Records can be filtered and exported in the same way as Charging Statistics, so you will be able to make even better use of the charging data on eMabler Platform.
