TYPES OF ENERGY PLANS
Electricity plan types available in Arlington
Fixed-rate plans
Fixed-rate plans lock in a per-kWh price for the contract term, so bills stay steady through Arlington's hot summers. The market lists 106 fixed-rate plans, with the lowest at 7.2¢/kWh and an average of 15.16¢/kWh.
Variable-rate plans
No variable-rate or month-to-month plans are currently listed in Arlington, so the market average shows 0¢/kWh for this category. Prices under these plans move with wholesale conditions, which can rise during high-demand summer periods.
Renewable energy
110 renewable energy plans are listed in Arlington, 22 of them 100% green, at an average of 15.25¢/kWh. The green premium is -0.02¢ relative to the market average, meaning renewable plans price close to conventional offerings.
Prepaid plans
Prepaid plans require payment before electricity use, with two options listed in Arlington at an average of 19.68¢/kWh. Service can be cut off when the balance runs out, so households with high summer cooling loads should monitor usage.
Time-of-use plans
Time-of-use plans charge different rates by hour, with peak pricing typically applied during weekday afternoons and evenings. Four such plans are listed in Arlington, averaging 15.96¢/kWh, and suit households that can shift usage such as laundry.
Free nights & weekends
Free nights and weekends plans set certain off-peak hours at zero energy charge, though the per-kWh rate applies during other hours. Arlington's peak cooling demand often falls in weekday afternoons, so usage timing determines whether these plans reduce costs.
