Types of plans in Coppell
In addition to picking your provider, you can also select the best type of energy plan for your needs. Below, you’ll find an explanation of the most popular types of electricity plans in Coppell. For more information, you can check out SaveOnEnergy’s guide to choosing an energy plan or call the phone number on your screen to speak with one of our electricity experts.
Fixed-rate plans
With a fixed-rate plan, you’ll lock in a set electricity rate for your entire contract period. These contracts generally range from 12 to 36 months. While you’ll be protected against electricity rate hikes, you’ll face an early termination fee (ETF) if you cancel your plan before the contract is up.
Variable-rate plans
If you go with a variable-rate plan, you won’t sign a contract or get a fixed rate. Instead, you’ll be on a month-to-month plan, where the rate fluctuates along with the wholesale price of electricity. You’ll enjoy more flexibility than you would with a fixed-rate plan, but you could pay higher rates when energy demand increases.
No-deposit plans
If you have a lower credit score, light companies usually require you to pay a deposit before beginning service — unless you sign up for a no-deposit plan. Not all providers offer these plans, but in Coppell, you’ll find several options from Payless Power. This company focuses on prepaid plans, which don’t require a deposit and let you pay for your energy usage upfront.
Green electricity
Green energy plans are also widely available in Coppell, thanks to Texas’s investment in renewable energy sources (such as wind and solar). You’ll find 100% green plans from numerous Coppell electricity providers, including Gexa Energy and Green Mountain Energy. Even if you don’t choose a fully green plan, every electricity plan bought in Texas will include a small amount of renewable energy.
Business energy plans
Coppell’s deregulated energy market also extends to commercial properties. If you own or manage a business here, you can partner with SaveOnEnergy to find affordable electricity rates for your company. To learn more, visit our business energy hub or call our energy agents.
