Types of Arlington electric plans

When you search for Arlington electric plans, you’ll have several different choices. Your main options include:  

• Fixed-rate plans: As the name suggests, you have a fixed monthly rate when you sign the contract. However, even though your electric rate doesn’t change, taxes and government fees can fluctuate. Contracts typically run from 12 to 36 months, and you may incur an early termination fee (ETF) if you end your agreement early. 
• Variable-rate plans: Wholesale energy costs dictate what these plans charge, meaning you’ll have different rates from month to month. You can save when energy rates are lower, giving you the best shot for cheap electricity in Arlington. These plans also allow you to switch anytime if you decide another plan works better for you. However, be aware that variable-rate plans can lead to rate spikes during high-demand periods.
• No-deposit plans: If you want to avoid paying a security deposit before your service begins, you should consider a no-deposit plan. Many people favor this option because you can avoid a credit check and pay for your electricity upfront.
