• Fixed-rate: With this type of plan, your electricity rates remain the same throughout the term of the plan. Rates will not change even if market prices fluctuate, meaning that you will keep paying the prices on your contract. However, government taxes and fees that could change during this period. While a fixed-rate plan can help to protect you from rising prices, you could be subject to an early termination fee if you exit the plan before it ends. The most popular plans run for 12, 24, and 36 months.

• No deposit: Electricity providers check your credit to determine whether you must pay a deposit. One alternative is a prepaid plan, where you pay upfront for every month of your expected service. You will be required to top up in advance for more electricity when you’re close to exhausting the amount you had paid for.
