Take Control of Your EV Charging Juice Cost helps you understand what it actually costs to charge your EV at home. The app combines Swedish spot prices with energy tax, grid transfer fees, electricity supplier markups, and your local price area—so you see more than just the market price. Compare different charging times, avoid unnecessarily expensive hours, and see how your electricity contract and fees affect the final cost. Features • Calculate charging costs for any selected time period • Compare different times and find cheaper charging opportunities • Support for Swedish price areas SE1, SE2, SE3, and SE4 • Flexible pricing based on Swedish spot prices • Fixed-price mode for fixed-rate electricity contracts • Customizable energy tax, grid transfer fee, and supplier markup • Spot-price chart with simple date navigation • View the estimated total cost, including additional fees • Save and review your charging history • Sync history and settings across multiple iPhones using the same iCloud account • Support for selected Swedish grid operators • Power-tariff calculations for supported grid operators More Than Just the Spot Price The raw electricity price is only part of the total cost. VAT, energy tax, grid fees, and electricity supplier markups also affect what you actually pay per kWh. Juice Cost brings everything together in one place and gives you a clearer estimate of the real charging cost—so you can plan your charging more intelligently.
