Types of electricity plans in Irving
If you use Choose Energy to shop for cheap electricity in Irving, you’ll find several types of energy plans. Here’s a quick rundown of the most common ones:
- Fixed-rate plans: With a fixed-rate plan, you’ll sign a contract with your provider (which usually lasts between 12 and 36 months). During that period, you’ll enjoy a stable electricity rate and predictable energy costs. However, fixed-rate electricity plans typically come with an early termination fee (ETF) if you cancel before your contract’s end date.
- Variable-rate plans: If you select a variable-rate plan, your rate can change based on wholesale energy prices. In periods of lower demand, your electricity rate could be lower — but your costs could increase when demand picks up. One advantage of variable-rate plans is that you can cancel or switch providers without paying an ETF.
- Prepaid and no-deposit plans: When signing up for a new energy plan, most electricity companies will run a credit check. If your credit score doesn’t reach their threshold, you may be required to pay an initial deposit. One way to avoid this is by signing up for a prepaid plan. This type of no-deposit energy plan allows you to pay for power before you use it. Your energy provider will alert you when your balance gets low so you can replenish it.
