Stiftung Warentest says...
"Most tariffs are around 21 cents. Ostrom is the cheapest and stands at 19.3 cents."
The kilowatt-hour, including VAT and all additional costs, cost only 10.5 cents for our sample household in Berlin with Ostrom. The fixed costs at Ostrom amount to 16.2 cents per kilowatt-hour without VAT. If you subtract the negative electricity price of 7.4 cents from this and factor in VAT again, you arrive at this low price." (translated from German original)

The 5 Most Frequently Asked Questions
- #1 Why should I switch to Ostrom?
Ostrom is the only energy provider that has the same incentives as you — to use less electricity! With our flat 6 € basic fee, we earn the same from a small flat as from a large house. Therefore, unlike every other energy provider, we genuinely want you to use less electricity.
Oh yeah, and we have our top-rated app... and our incredible customer support... and our smart integrations... and our certified green energy... - #2 I still have my contract period with my old provider. Do I have to wait? (Not at all!)
No, there’s no need to wait! Even if your current contract has up to 12 months remaining, you can sign up with Ostrom today. Just sign up now, and we’ll take care of the rest — your contract will seamlessly switch to Ostrom as soon as your existing one ends.
- #3 What is the difference between the SimplyFair and SimplyDynamic tariffs?
SimplyFair: Our original transparent tariff for all! Easily add meter readings to track your consumption on our app. Energy prices track the market prices on a monthly basis. Our last price increase was in 2022, and we did 7 price decreases (yes!) since then.
SimplyDynamic: Our smart-meter compatible tariff! For those customers who already have a smart meter, automatically see your energy consumption on an hourly basis. This means you can take advantage of low prices when the sun shines or the wind blows!
Both have all the great features for all Ostrom customers: risk-free monthly cancellable contract, all the features of the Ostrom App (smart home integrations, referrals, perks, CO2 tracking, Ostrom Store, live customer chat & more!) - #4 I'm worried about price changes. How often do prices change at Ostrom?
While energy prices change often, our SimplyFair tariff removes that complexity for our customers. It's the perfect balance between dynamic prices that change hourly and 24-month contracts that keep you locked in to a high price (think households in 2024 still paying 2022 prices).
Our last price increase was in 2022, and afterwards we did 7 price decreases then. This means our customers quickly received cheaper prices as soon as they came. How awesome is that! - #5 Does Ostrom offer risk-free, flexible, monthly cancellable contracts?
Yes! Both our SimplyFair and SimplyDynamic tariffs do not have the typical 12- or 24-month minimum contract periods like every other provider. We want you to stay because you want to, not because you have to.
