If you use about 500 kw\/h, the<br \/>\nGreen Energy 12 plan is the best rate. This will give you the best rates of the 12-month plans . This plan also offers the benefit that this plan offers 100% renewable energy. If going green is important to you, this is an ideal plan.<\/p>\n<p>Small Homes Small homes tend to use about 1000 kw\/h. In this case, the  <a href='https:\/\/www.texaselectricityratings.com\/companies\/gexa-energy'>Gexa<\/a> Choice 1500  plan falls right in the middle between apartments and large homes. The $0.054 rate is by far the lowest rates on the chart.<\/p>\n<p>Large Homes In larger homes with higher electricity usages, the Champ Saver 12 will be the best deal. They offer the biggest discount for significant usage. While it\u2019s only 3\/10ths of a cent, it will add up quickly over the course of a hot summer.<\/p>\n<p>Deciding the best plan for your home will require looking at your average energy usage over the last 12 months and choosing the plan that fits your usages best.<\/p>\n<h3>Other Electricity Rate Factors in Dallas<\/h3>\n<p>Whereas some plans don\u2019t charge an early termination fee, all three of these plans require $150 fee if you cancel before your 12 months is up. This might be a factor if there is a chance that you might move or if you are the type of person who likes to shop around every 6 months for the best rates.<\/p>\n<h3>Minimum Usage Fees<\/h3>\n<p>There are no minimum usage fees on any of these plans, so that\u2019s not a factor in your calculations.<\/p>\n<h3>Usage Credits<\/h3>\n<p>Each plan offers credits when your usage goes over a certain level. These credits are usually reflected in the kWh price chart as well.<\/p>\n<p>Gexa offers a $60.00 usage credit for usage between 1,000 kWh and 2,000 kWh. There are no usage credits outside of this range.<\/p>\n<p>Both the Green Energy and Champ Saver plans are offered by Champion Energy. Champion doesn\u2019t offer any usage credits at any level.<\/p>\n<h3>All Things Considered<\/h3>\n<p>As you can see from the information above, the final decision as to which plan is cheapest is based on your usage. Once you&#8217;ve calculated your usage, you can find the plan with the lowest Dallas electricity rates.<\/p>\n<p>Apartments &#8211; The Green Energy 12 plan comes in as the best plan for homes with a usage under 500 kWh. This plan has the added bonus of being 100% renewable.<br \/>\nSmaller homes &#8211; Gexa 1500 is a great plan, but be careful not to exceed 2,000 kWh. The plan offers a significant usage credit between 1,000 kWh and 2,000 kWh.<br \/>\nLarger homes &#8211; Champ Saver 12 is perfect for larger homes with usage over 2,000 kWh. This plan was specifically designed for larger, higher usage homes.<\/p>\n<p>Then the only significant decision is: Are you reasonably sure that you will want to stay with a plan for 12 months? If so, then the cancellation fee is not a consideration. Otherwise, factor that into the potential costs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The variety of electricity rates in the Dallas area can vary by nearly $0.15 depending on your usage.
