Utilities – which electricity plan to choose?

I am moving to my own apartment after living in a share house. Slowly but surely setting up utilities.

About electricity, I saw that you can get contracts with or without a base fee. I am checking two options from Octopus Energy. Can you help me understand the benefits and recommendation for my case?

I live alone, work from home 2 times per week but have a PC for gaming plus use a couple other gaming consoles. So maybe slightly higher usage.

  1. Green Octopus (7,731 JPY with estimated usage 270kWh/month)

– basic fee: 29.10/30A/day

– 0-120kWh/JPY = 20.62

– 121-300kWh/JPY = 25.29

– 301+ = 27.44

  1. Simple Octopus (8,391 JPY with estimated usage 270kWh/month)

– No basic fee

– 31.6 Jpy/kWh

Thank you in advance!
