Energy is more expensive than ever. Tricks such as switching off the Standby function of many household appliances are helpful, yet no longer an insider tip. But why save electricity when electric costs can be significantly reduced by selecting the right utility provider? With the new "Stromrechner" at T-Online, consumers can now check not only whether they are paying too much for that invisible energy coming out of the socket. They'll also discover which energy provider is the most favorable for them personally, and can make the switch to this supplier the easy way - without any annoying paperwork.

Clever savers access the Verivox Stromrechner in the Immobilien (Real Estate) portal of onWirtschaft (www.onwirtschaft.de). To find the lowest-cost electricity provider, users simply enter their postcode, together with their average annual energy consumption in kilowatt hours. Those who don´t have this data at their fingertips can have the average electricity consumption for 1- to 4-person households displayed. The calculator determines the most economical offers and lists them in an overview. There the user finds links to the lowest-priced supplier and electricity expense per year, together with additional helpful information such as basic fee, costs per kilowatt hour, price validity or guarantee, and whether the utility is a local provider. Ecology-conscious users also discover which offers are environment-friendly "Green Electricity". Those who have found the right power utility can send for information on making the switch via the "Stromrechner", and in most cases initiate the change to another provider online.
