Mini Time of Use Reminder

Positioned in the top right of the progress version of the Peak Focused Report, the Mini Time of Use Reminder module is a customer's first point of reference for understanding peak electricity cost periods based on their Time of Use plan. The module clearly displays the multiplier for high-cost periods and their specific timings, provides a color-coded timeline that highlights peak times in for easy identification, and adapts to different utility peak times and billing structures, such as demand charges.
