Check out these cheap green tiered-rate electric plans that help you save money and the environment!<\/center><\/p><\/div>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Which Green Tiered Rate Electricity Plans Save Money?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">renewable energy<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> makes you feel good. You\u2019re doing one small thing to preserve the natural environment n Texas. If everyone does one small thing, it can change the world. But doing your part for the environment doesn\u2019t have to cost an arm and a leg. Green tiered rate plans give you the chance to reduce your carbon footprint and help the environment while minimizing your electricity costs.\u00a0A 12-month plan allows you to lock in a fixed rate. It also gives you the flexibility to try a different plan in a year. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you understand your typical electricity usage, you can find the tiered rate electric plan in Houston to match your needs. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What do you have to lose?\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bill Credit Plan For Moderate Usage Homes<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span>GridEdge 12<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> plan offers the best price and average bill for customers who average 1,000 kWh per month. At 7.9 cents per kWh and an average bill of $127, you can\u2019t find a lower priced 12-month green tiered rate electric plan. This plan is great for moderate usage customers because it includes a $90 bill credit when customers use 1,000 kWh in a billing cycle. In effect, there\u2019s a very different price for the first 999 kWh versus the 1,000th and beyond.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you don\u2019t choose a new plan when your contract expires, <\/span><a href='https:\/\/www.texaselectricityratings.com\/companies\/chariot-energy'>Chariot Energy<\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> will enroll you in its default renewal product. This product is a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">variable rate electricity plan<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and you pay the prevailing month-to-month electricity rate. Variable rate plans tend to have much higher prices than fixed rate plans, so do your homework when you get your contract expiration notice.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Two Distinctive <a href='https:\/\/www.texaselectricityratings.com\/companies\/gexa-energy'>Gexa Energy<\/a> Plans<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">shop for Texas electricity<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, you have a wide variety of choices &#8212; even within the plans from one provider. It\u2019s easy to see when choosing between either green tiered rate electric plan from <\/span>Gexa Energy<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Like the first plan discussed above, the <\/span>Gexa Saver 12<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> plan has a bill credit at 1,000 kWh. However, this plan\u2019s bill credit amount is $95. This makes the price per kWh large at very low and high usages but very low for moderate usage. At 1,000 kWh, the average price is 7.9 cents. On the other hand, the average bill is significantly higher at $169. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Seasonal fluctuations in electricity usage<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can be real budget killers on this plan.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span>Gexa Saver Advantage 12<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> plan has two bill credits, but customers can only earn up to one per month. Customers receive the $40 bill credit for usage between 1,000 and 1,499 kWh and the $80 credit for usage between 1,500 and 2,500 kWh. The average price at 1,000 kWh is 11.3 cents with an average bill of $132.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Solar Days and Free Nights<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Night owls have a green tiered rate electric plan, too. The <\/span>Free Nights &amp; Solar Days<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> plan from <\/span><a href='https:\/\/www.texaselectricityratings.com\/companies\/txu-energy'>TXU Energy<\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> gives a 100% discount on retail charges from 8 p.m. to 4:59 a.m. Run major appliances only during these hours, and you could <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">save on utility bills<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. At 1,000 kWh, the plan\u2019s average price is 15.5 cents with an average bill of $156.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Compare Houston Electricity Rates<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re ready to try a green tiered rate electric plan in Houston, compare rates at <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.texaselectricityratings.com<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
