Types of Electricity plans
When you start shopping for cheap electricity rates in Arlington, you’ll encounter a variety of plan types. Here are the most common options you’ll find on our marketplace:
Fixed-rate plans
When you sign up for a fixed-rate energy plan, you secure your Arlington electricity rate for the length of the contract, which typically ranges from one to three years. You aren’t vulnerable to electricity rate hikes during this time, but if you end your contract early, you’ll pay an early termination fee (ETF).
Variable-rate plans
A variable-rate energy plan doesn’t require a contract with a set rate. Instead, your rate is affected by the current energy market, leading to frequent price changes. You’ll save money when energy demand is low, but your bill could spike when demand increases.
Prepaid and no-deposit plans
Depending on your credit score, you may be required to pay a deposit for your energy plan. No-deposit plans allow you to skip the deposit, and prepaid plans let you pay for your electricity upfront.
Green energy
Texas is a leader in renewable energy. It ranks among the top of all states for wind and solar energy generation, making it easy for Arlington residents to find affordable green energy plans.
Each energy plan in Texas includes a percentage of green energy. The exact percentage is listed in a plan’s Electricity Facts Label (EFL). Arlington electricity providers like Gexa Energy and Green Mountain Energy also specialize in offering 100% green energy plans.
