How To Find The Cheapest Energy Plan

Are you not sure where to begin?

Let us take the guesswork out

When it comes to shopping for a new energy plan there are many different factors that change the price you actually pay.

Energy companies are required by law to publish a “Price per Kilowatt”, but this is misleading, because 9 times out of 10 this price ONLY applies if your monthly energy usage is above some predefined monthly threshold.

Now ask yourself the following question:

What happens if I use less electricity? I’ll just pay less, right?

WRONG! Although this seems obvious, this is not always the case!

Each energy plan is has it’s own little quirks that are specified in the contract’s small text, even for plans offered by large reputable companies. While some energy plans may appear cheaper, they can have a HUGE price difference when your usage changes.

If you live in Texas, you are likely using 2X electricity in the summer months, but might be paying 3X for that extra usage.

Let’s be honest.

When was the last time you examined your electricity bill?

Are you really paying the “Price per Kilowatt” that was promised to you?
