Cheap electric bill plans in Houston have the pricing structures to fit almost every customer with a 12-month plan:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Plan<\/td>\n<td>Retail Electricity Provider<\/td>\n<td>Average Price at 1,000 kWh<\/td>\n<td>Average Bill<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Easy Bill 12<\/td>\n<td><a href='https:\/\/www.texaselectricityratings.com\/companies\/frontier-utilities'>Frontier Utilities<\/a><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7.8 cents\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">$101<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Easy Saver 12<\/td>\n<td><a href='https:\/\/www.texaselectricityratings.com\/companies\/4-change-energy'>4Change Energy<\/a><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8.5 cents<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">$103<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Smart Value 12 Online<\/td>\n<td><a href='https:\/\/www.texaselectricityratings.com\/companies\/cirro-energy'>Cirro Energy<\/a><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8.9 cents<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">$106<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Spark Green Secure 12<\/td>\n<td><a href='https:\/\/www.texaselectricityratings.com\/companies\/spark-energy'>Spark Energy<\/a><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10.2 cents<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">$107<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Texas Fixed 12<\/td>\n<td><a href='https:\/\/www.texaselectricityratings.com\/companies\/pulse-power'>Pulse Power<\/a><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10.7 cents<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">$107<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Substantial Base Charges on Cheap Electric Plans<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Easy Bill 12 and Easy Saver 12 plans have the lowest average bill and work best for moderate usage customers. Under both <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">plans, customers pay a flat fee for usage under 1,000 kWh in a billing cycle, $78 and $85 respectively. After that, customers pay a high per-kWh rate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before you sign up for either of these plans, review your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">normal home usage<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for the past few years. Make sure you\u2019ve never gone above or below the 1,000 kWh threshold in a billing cycle. High and low usage customers, meanwhile, should shop for better deals with the other 12-month plans.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Houston Bill Credit Electric Plan<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The next cheapest plan is best for moderate and high usage customers. The <\/span>Smart Value 12 Online<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> plan offers customers a $30 bill credit for usage between 1,500 and 2,000 kWh in a billing cycle. Outside this usage window, customers don\u2019t qualify for the bill credit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Power to Choose Your Houston Electric Company<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The final two plans have straightforward pricing. That means no <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">bill credits<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">tiered rates<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, or<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> free nights and weekends<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The <\/span>Spark Green Secure 12<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span>Texas Fixed 12<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> plans have small base charges each billing cycle but low usage customers should pay close attention. The Pulse Power charges just $4.99 but the Spark plan charges $8.99 when usage falls below 1,000 kWh. After that, both retailers only charge you a fixed per-kWh rate.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are you ready to test drive a new retail electricity provider?
