• For those customers who use over 2,500 kWh of electricity in the summer, but not much in the winter, and who dont want any bill surprises, the Think Clean 12, from Think Energy, is the way to go. Its a flat plan with pretty much the same rates across all usage tiers, this is the plan at 14.4 cents per kWh is the set it and forget it option that many Texans are looking for when it comes to electricity.
