-#### Hourly Prices
-
-The format of the `hourly-prices` JSON array is as follows:
-
-```json
-[
-	{
-		"hourStart": "2023-09-19T18:00:00Z",
-		"spotPrice": 0.0,
-		"spotPriceCurrency": "DKK",
-		"gridTariff": 0.0,
-		"systemTariff": 0.054,
-		"transmissionGridTariff": 0.058,
-		"electricityTax": 0.697,
-		"reducedElectricityTax": 0.008
-	},
-	{
-		"hourStart": "2023-09-19T19:00:00Z",
-		"spotPrice": -0.00052,
-		"spotPriceCurrency": "DKK",
-		"gridTariff": 0.0,
-		"systemTariff": 0.054,
-		"transmissionGridTariff": 0.058,
-		"electricityTax": 0.697,
-		"reducedElectricityTax": 0.008
-	}
-]
-```
-
-Future spot prices for the next day are usually available around 13:00 CET and are fetched around that time.
-Historic prices older than 24 hours are removed from the JSON array each hour.
-
 ## Thing Actions
 
-Thing actions can be used to perform calculations as well as import prices directly into rules without deserializing JSON from the [hourly-prices](#hourly-prices) channel.
-This is more convenient, much faster, and provides automatic summation of the price components of interest.
+Thing actions can be used to perform calculations as well as import prices directly into rules without relying on persistence.
+This is convenient, fast, and provides automatic summation of the price components of interest.
 
 Actions use cached data for performing operations.
 Since data is only fetched when an item is linked to a channel, there might not be any cached data available.
 In this case the data will be fetched on demand and cached afterwards.
 The first action triggered on a given day may therefore be a bit slower, and is also prone to failing if the server call fails for any reason.
-This potential problem can be prevented by linking the individual channels to items, or by linking the `hourly-prices` channel to an item.
