TYPES OF ENERGY PLANS
Electricity plan types available in Fort Worth
Fixed-rate plans
Fixed-rate plans lock a per-kWh price for the contract term, shielding Fort Worth households from mid-contract changes during peak summer cooling demand. Of 120 market plans, 114 are fixed-rate, averaging 15.27¢/kWh.
Variable-rate plans
Variable-rate plans track wholesale electricity prices and can change monthly, which exposes Fort Worth customers to swings during August heat waves. The market currently lists zero variable-rate or month-to-month plans among the 120 available.
Renewable energy
Renewable energy plans source electricity from wind or solar generation. Of 118 renewable plans in Fort Worth, 22 are 100% green, averaging 15.35¢/kWh, with a green premium of -0.01¢ versus the market average.
Prepaid plans
Prepaid plans require payment before electricity use, with no monthly billing cycle and service typically disconnected when the balance runs out. Two prepaid plans are listed in Fort Worth, averaging 19.68¢/kWh, above the 15.27¢/kWh fixed-rate average.
Time-of-use plans
Time-of-use plans charge different rates by time of day, with peak rates typically applying during afternoon hours when Fort Worth air conditioners run hardest. Four time-of-use plans are offered, averaging 15.96¢/kWh.
Free nights & weekends
Free nights and weekends plans set a zero-cost energy period during off-peak hours, letting households shift laundry, dishwashing, or EV charging to those times. Market data reports no count or average rate for this plan type.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Common questions about energy in Fort Worth
As of Oct 10th, 2026, the lowest rate available in Fort Worth is APGE's SimpleSaver 9 at 7.2¢/kWh. That is well below the market average of 15.36¢/kWh, so shopping among the 120 available plans can lead to meaningful savings on your monthly bill.
Fort Worth's hot summers drive air conditioning use, which pushes household electricity consumption up significantly during the warmer months. Mild winters help offset this somewhat. Choosing a plan with a low rate per kWh can help soften the impact of high summer usage on your bill.
Single-family homes make up 65% of Fort Worth housing, and most use around 1225 kWh per month. A 2000 kWh tier plan is recommended for these homes, giving room for summer cooling peaks. Most of the 120 available plans, 118 of them green, are priced close to the market average.
Start by comparing plans, since the lowest option, APGE's SimpleSaver 9 at 7.2¢/kWh, sits far below the 15.36¢/kWh market average. Then reduce summer cooling demand by setting thermostats higher, sealing air leaks, and using ceiling fans to cut your monthly kWh usage.
