TYPES OF ENERGY PLANS
Electricity plan types available in Dallas
Fixed-rate plans
Dallas has 106 fixed-rate plans averaging 15.16¢/kWh, with listed rates starting at 7.2¢/kWh. Fixed rates hold the per-kWh price for the contract term, keeping bills predictable during summer cooling months when Dallas usage peaks.
Variable-rate plans
The Dallas market currently lists 0 variable-rate or month-to-month plans, so rates here do not fluctuate with wholesale prices on a monthly basis. Dallas customers should confirm contract terms directly with providers before enrolling.
Renewable energy
Dallas lists 110 renewable energy plans averaging 15.25¢/kWh, with 22 offering 100% green supply and a green premium of -0.02¢ versus the market. Renewable matching uses certificates, so it does not alter outage response or grid reliability in Dallas.
Prepaid plans
Dallas has 2 prepaid plans averaging 19.68¢/kWh, roughly 4.5¢ above the 15.16¢ fixed-rate average. Prepaid accounts require upfront balances and may disconnect service when funds run out, which matters during August heat when cooling loads drive consumption.
Time-of-use plans
Dallas has 4 time-of-use plans averaging 15.96¢/kWh, slightly above the 15.16¢ fixed-rate average. Time-of-use rates vary by hour, so households running air conditioning during afternoon peaks in Dallas summers may pay more than the listed average.
Free nights & weekends
Free nights and weekends plans waive energy charges during specified off-peak hours, usually overnight and on weekends. In Dallas, these windows can suit dishwashers, laundry, and EV charging, though air conditioning run during daytime hours is billed at standard rates.
