Factors to consider when choosing an electricity plan

Your typical usage:
Energy providers set rates based on how much electricity your household uses in a billing period. The three usage tiers are 500 kWh, 1,000 kWh, and 2,000 kWh. Check previous energy bills to estimate how much power you typically use. This information will help you find a plan with an affordable energy rate for your usage tier.

Plan type:
The most common types of energy plans are fixed-rate and variable-rate. Fixed-rate plans offer a stable price per kWh for the duration of your contract. However, your provider will charge an early termination fee (ETF) if you cancel your plan before the contract ends. On the other hand, variable-rate plans don’t require a contract or charge ETFs, but your rate will change based on the wholesale cost of electricity.

Plan length:
Contracts typically last between one and three years. Some providers offer month-to-month plans or shorter fixed-rate options. Consider the best plan length for your circumstances before signing up.

Same-day energy deadlines:
Most electricity providers offer same-day connections for homes with smart meters. But keep in mind there is often a specific time you’ll need to activate your new plan in order to receive same-day service.

Renewable energy plans:
Some providers offer plans where they purchase renewable energy certificates to account for your usage. This allows you to offset your carbon footprint and positively contribute to the environment. Enter your ZIP code and filter for green energy, or consider options from Gexa Energy or Green Mountain Energy if you’d like to find a 100% green energy plan.

Electricity Facts Label (EFL):
Each plan comes with a unique EFL. This document provides important details about the plan’s rates, contract length, and any additional fees to be aware of.
