Types of Pasadena electric plans

There are many electricity plans to choose from in Pasadena. Every consumer can pick one that meets their needs. Some common plans include:

• Fixed-rate plans: You pay the same rates each month of your contract no matter how energy market prices fluctuate. These plans are great for consumers who like predictability. You’re protected from supply rate increases but will pay more money when the market rate goes down. If you want to leave the contract early, you can be charged an early termination fee (ETF).
• Variable-rate plans: Rates fluctuate with the market and can change month-to-month. Oftentimes, the season can affect monthly rates. You are not locked into a contract and can switch to a different plan or provider at any time.
• No-deposit plans: No-deposit electricity plans can be a good option for people who do not want to pay an initial deposit or have a credit check. Some no-deposit plans are only available to residents with good credit, but others allow customers to avoid a credit check altogether.
• Prepaid plans: A prepaid plan is a type of no-deposit plan where consumers pay upfront for the amount of electricity they expect to use throughout the month. These plans do not lock you into a contract, but you have to know much electricity you’ll use in the month ahead.
• Green energy plans: Texas is a leader in green energy, making it easy for Pasadena residents to find green energy plans to fit their needs. Transitioning to renewable energy reduces your carbon footprint and can be more cost-effective.
