TYPES OF ENERGY PLANS
Electricity plan types available in Arlington
Fixed-rate plans
Fixed-rate plans lock in one per-kWh price for the contract term, so bills stay steady through Arlington's hot summers. Of 107 available plans, the lowest rate is 7.2¢/kWh and the average is 15.13¢/kWh.
Variable-rate plans
No variable-rate or month-to-month plans are currently listed in Arlington, so rates cannot shift with wholesale market prices. Consumers seeking this structure have no available options in this market.
Renewable energy
Of 111 renewable plans, 22 are 100% green. Renewable plans average 15.22¢/kWh, with a green premium of -0.02¢ relative to the market average. Plan details, including contract length and fees, should be compared before enrolling.
Prepaid plans
Two prepaid plans are available in Arlington, averaging 19.68¢/kWh, which is higher than the fixed-rate average of 15.13¢/kWh. Prepaid billing requires paying for electricity before use, without a traditional monthly invoice.
Time-of-use plans
Four time-of-use plans in Arlington average 15.96¢/kWh and vary rates by hour of day. Peak pricing during late afternoon and evening hours suits households that can shift laundry, dishwashing, and EV charging to off-peak periods.
Free nights & weekends
Free nights and weekends plans set specified overnight and weekend hours at no energy charge, while daytime rates apply on weekdays. Arlington's summer heat makes it important to check whether cooling runs during the charged periods.

Arlington's hot summers drive up air conditioning use, which is typically the biggest source of higher bills. Mild winters help offset some costs. Choosing a plan with a predictable rate and running cooling equipment during off-peak hours can help keep your monthly electricity spending steady.
Single-family homes make up 60% of housing in Arlington, and most of them use about 1,225 kWh per month. A 2,000 kWh tier fits this usage well. Of the 113 plans available, 111 are green energy plans priced only 0.02¢ above average, so eco-friendly options are affordable.
Start by comparing plans, since the lowest rate is 7.2¢ per kWh compared with the 15.24¢ market average. Then reduce summer cooling costs by setting your thermostat a few degrees higher, sealing air leaks, and using ceiling fans. Shifting heavy appliance use to off-peak hours also helps.
