It also happens to be when <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">electricity prices<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> tend to be their highest because Houston residents to run their <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">air conditioning systems<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> nearly nonstop. If you want to minimize your power cost in your new home, shop short-term energy plans for Houston movers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Short-Term Electricity Plan Strategy<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Short-term electricity plans may not seem like a good idea at first. Their prices are usually higher than plans with yearlong or longer contracts. Why should you pay more for energy now? The reason is to pay lower costs later. If you lock in a year-long\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">fixed rate electricity plan in summer<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, you lock in the highest price for a full year. But, if you shop electricity plans in the fall, you pick a power plan when prices have fallen.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So how does this strategy play out in real life?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>If you choose to go with a\u00a0variable rate plan,\u00a0your electricity price changes each month. Now, you could put up with this year\u2019s summer pricing surge but it could cost you a LOT during the hottest summer months.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">retail electricity providers<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> offer plans of six months or fewer, though two or three month plans are very rare. Yes, these rates tend to be a little higher on average. But, getting a fixed rate for only couple of months will shield you from spiking summer prices.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>In the fall, a<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">s prices decline, you start shopping for electricity plans at <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.texaselectricityratings.com<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Fall prices tend to bottom out in mid-October through November. Sign up for a fixed rate electricity plan then. If you pick a plan with a one-, two-, or three-year contract, your next shopping experience will again be when prices are low.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Great Energy Plans for Houston Movers<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span>Flex Forward<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;\"> offers an average price of 13.2 cents per kWh on a 1,000 kWh bill. While this is higher than most other plans, remember you won\u2019t be with this plan for long. You\u2019ll re-evaluate your options in the early fall. Maybe you\u2019ll stick with <\/span>TXU Energy<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, or perhaps there will be another provider with a better option for your home.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also choose prepaid electricity plans like the <\/span>SmarTricity Easy Choice<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> plan from <\/span><a href='https:\/\/www.texaselectricityratings.com\/companies\/payless-power'>Payless Power<\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This plan requires you to pay for energy before you use it. This is usually a viable option for people with poor credit history who don\u2019t want to pay a <a href='https:\/\/www.texaselectricityratings.com\/electricity-rates\/prepaid-electricity'>deposit<\/a>. But again, you\u2019ll find a new contract in the fall.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Execute Your Electricity Plan Strategy<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You have a ton of things to plan with your Houston move. Shopping for Houston electricity should absolutely be on your to-do list. Great energy plans are out there.
