Energy everyone understands.
Not all energy usage can be moved, but your biggest power consumers usually can. Take a look below to discover the simple changes you can make to run your home for less during off-peak hours.

The problem
Your smart meter is only the beginning.
Smart meters measure your electricity, but they don't help you understand it. They don't show which devices are using the most energy. They don't explain whether your tariff is right for your home. They don't help your family make better decisions throughout the day. Tewke changes that.

Energy changes every day
Traditional tariffs charge a flat rate, but modern dynamic tariffs change every half hour. Sometimes green electricity becomes incredibly cheap, or even completely free. On rare occasions, the grid will actually pay you to use power. Without the right visibility, you’d never know when to take advantage. Tewke makes sure you always do.
Is your tariff right?
Not sure whether a variable tariff is right for you? Tewke compares how your home actually uses electricity with alternative tariffs. See what yesterday would have cost. See what last month would have cost. Switch with confidence, not guesswork.

“Tap looks great. It’s given us the control we never had before, and it’s really easy to set up and use.”
Energy is just the beginning.
Most energy tools are hidden away in a smartphone app for a single user, but Tewke is designed for the whole household. By bringing live energy insights directly to the wall, everyone in the family can make smarter choices together. After all, the smartest home isn't the one loaded with complex technology, it's the one that's effortless to live in.
Frequently asked questions.
What is smart home energy monitoring?
Smart home energy monitoring uses connected technology to track how a home is using electricity, often down to individual circuits or appliances rather than just the total. It helps homeowners understand consumption patterns, spot inefficiencies and make more informed decisions about how they use energy.
What's the difference between a smart meter and smart energy monitoring?
A smart meter measures total household electricity use and reports it to your energy supplier. Smart energy monitoring goes further, breaking usage down by circuit or appliance, tracking live cost, and comparing that data against your tariff, insight a standard smart meter doesn't provide on its own.
Can smart energy monitoring help reduce energy bills?
Yes. By showing which devices and rooms use the most electricity, and when, smart energy monitoring makes it easier to identify wasteful habits, shift usage to cheaper times, and check whether your current tariff is still the best fit for your home.
Can smart energy monitoring track individual appliances, not just the whole house?
Yes. Tewke breaks down energy use by circuit, so you can see which appliances or rooms are driving consumption, rather than only viewing one combined household total.
Can smart energy tools help me choose the right electricity tariff?
Yes. Tewke's Agile Tariff Simulator compares how your home actually uses electricity against alternative tariffs, showing what past usage would have cost under a different plan, helping you decide whether to switch based on real data rather than guesswork.
What is carbon intensity and why does it matter for my energy use?
Carbon intensity is a measure of how much CO₂ is produced for the electricity you use, which changes throughout the day as the UK grid draws more or less power from wind, solar and other renewables. Tewke's Carbon Intensity feature shows you this in real time, so you can choose to run heavy appliances when the grid is at its cleanest.
Can Tewke alert me when electricity prices change?
Yes. Notifications let you know the moment rates spike or an off-peak window opens, so you can shift usage to the cheapest times without having to check a dashboard yourself.
