Which Houston Green Energy Plans Are Best?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Green
Texas has more green power to choose from in the U.S. than any other state! Go green and help keep our air and water cleaner!<\/em><\/center><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Texas burns natural gas to make cheap electricity<\/a> in massive quantities. However, the state also has a healthy dose of renewable energy. In fact, green sources are responsible for more Texas power<\/a> than natural gas. That translates to an abundance of 100% green energy plans to supply your home.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Green Energy Plans Beat The Average<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In years past, customers had to pay a premium for any product that advertised itself as environmentally friendly. Remember those compact fluorescent bulbs<\/a> that looked like curly fries? But a higher price for environmentalism isn\u2019t the case with home energy plans. The cheapest green energy plans cost less than the average 12-month plan<\/a> from July, which was 14.3 cents per kWh.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The GridPlus 12<\/strong> plan from Chariot Energy<\/strong><\/a> boasts the lowest rate at 5.9 cents per kWh. This low rate is possible with a $125 bill credit at 1,000 kWh of usage. This plan is best for homes that consistently use slightly more than 1,000 kWh each month. The next two cheapest plans have similar pricing structures with higher per-kWh charges. One one hand, there’s the Gexa Eco Saver Plus 12<\/strong> from Gexa Energy<\/a><\/strong>. And on the other, there’s the Lone Saver Plus 12<\/strong> from Energy Texas<\/a><\/strong>. Both clock in at 6.0 cents per kWh.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After these three plans, the prices tick up a bit. But the next cheapest plans from Rhythm<\/strong><\/a> are still better than the average 12-month plan. Rhythm Saver 12<\/strong> is another bill credit plan with a rate of 8.3 cents. PowerShift Payback 12<\/strong> is a fixed rate plan with a price of 11.9 cents. With this latter plan, you don\u2019t have to worry about whether your usage will earn a bill credit. Instead, you pay a bill proportional to the energy you use.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Watch Out For Renewals<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Since these are 12-month plans, they\u2019ll be finished before you may realize. Fortunately, Texas energy retailers must warn you before your plan expires. Most companies send you an email and a letter. State rules require you receive a notice at least 30 days in advance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But what if you ignore this warning? Well, you\u2019ll be put on a month-to-month plan offered by your current retail company. Almost certainly, it will be a much higher price than you\u2019re used to paying.\u00a0So definitely, set a reminder on your phone to watch for these notices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you receive the renewal notice, begin comparing prices at https:\/\/www.texaselectricityratings.com\/electric-rates<\/a>. You can find the best power plan deals to meet your home\u2019s energy needs. You can even filter your options to only see green energy plans.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
