Factors to consider when choosing an electricity plan
Your average usage:
Your monthly energy usage impacts the rate your provider will charge per billing period. Before shopping for an energy plan in Rockport, check previous utility bills to estimate how much electricity you normally use at home.
Rate type:
The two most common types of energy plans are fixed-rate and variable-rate. With a fixed-rate plan, your energy price stays the same during your contract. Variable-rate plans don’t require a contract, but your rate can change each month based on market demand.
Plan length:
Consider your ideal contract length before signing up. Most fixed-rate contracts last between 12 and 36 months. If you cancel before the contract ends, you could be charged an early termination fee (ETF).
Same-day energy deadlines:
Most electricity providers offer same-day connections if your home has a smart meter. Providers set a specific daily cutoff time for same-day service — call us to learn more.
Green energy plans:
Every Texas energy plan includes a portion of green energy. Some providers offer 100% renewable options. Consider plans from Gexa Energy or Green Mountain Energy if you’re looking to reduce your carbon footprint.
Electricity Facts Label (EFL):
Carefully review a plan’s Electricity Facts Label before enrolling. The EFL includes details about plan terms, additional fees, and renewable energy content.
