TYPES OF ENERGY PLANS
Electricity plan types available in Pasadena
Fixed-rate plans
Fixed-rate plans lock in one per-kWh price for the contract term, shielding Pasadena households from wholesale swings. Of 113 plans in the market, 106 are fixed-rate, with the cheapest at 7.1¢/kWh and an average of 14.76¢/kWh.
Variable-rate plans
Variable-rate plans adjust per-kWh prices with wholesale market conditions, which can raise bills during Pasadena's hot, humid summer demand peaks. No variable or month-to-month plans are listed in the Pasadena market, so no average rate is available for comparison.
Renewable energy
Renewable energy plans make up 111 of the 113 Pasadena offerings, with 22 supplying 100% green power at an average of 14.9¢/kWh. Green premium sits at -0.02¢/kWh versus the market average, so cost differences are minimal.
Prepaid plans
Prepaid plans require payment before service use and carry no credit check, with 2 available in Pasadena at an average of 19.51¢/kWh. That average is above the market-wide fixed-rate average of 14.76¢/kWh, and usage draws down the account balance.
Time-of-use plans
Time-of-use plans price kWh differently by time of day, with peak rates during late afternoon when Pasadena's cooling demand is highest. Five plans are offered, averaging 16.41¢/kWh, so shifting laundry or EV charging to off-peak hours affects total cost.
Free nights & weekends
Free nights and weekends plans waive energy charges during set off-peak windows, which can lower costs for Pasadena households running air conditioning overnight. Window timing and eligibility vary by plan, so compare listed hours against your household's usage schedule.
