Our electricity consumption is monitored near real time and is available on https://eloverblik.dk/
Where you can log in to get a collective exact overview of import and export for every property you own or rent.
There would never be a requirement of documenting it, because any energy company that would require that info, you would grant access to it, so the can read it automatically.
So here by far the most normal is to pay by the hour, but we do not have credits for reduced consumption, which also IMO sounds a bit stupid, because the reduced consumption would just become the new normal.
So I'm surprised you claim it's widespread.
Ok, fine I guesss? I'm not advocating for anything, I'm just telling you about something that exists.
This sounds a lot like you're implying that I would make this up, I have no idea why you think this but DFS, balancing service, and the UK balancing mechanism are all UK markets that allow you to do this. The UK isn't unique, but I'm not as familiar with other energy markets.
