Types of electricity plans in Kingsville
When you sign up for your next Kingsville electricity plan, you’ll have a variety of options to choose from. Not only can you decide which provider to work with, but you can also choose the type of plan you want. Popular types of plans include:
- Fixed-rate plan: A fixed-rate electricity plan is one where you lock in your rate in your contract. Contracts typically range from 12-36 months, and during that time, your electricity rate won’t fluctuate at all.
- Variable-rate plan: Unlike fixed-rate plans, variable-rate electricity plan rates can fluctuate from one month to the next and are based on the current wholesale electricity rate. These plans don’t lock you into a contract, so you can switch providers anytime.
- No-deposit plan: Most electricity companies require that you pay a deposit when you sign up for your plan. One way around that is through a prepaid energy plan, which is a no-deposit plan where you pay upfront for the electricity you expect to use.
