Laredo's hot South Texas climate drives high cooling costs during extended summers, with temperatures often exceeding 100°F. This increases electricity consumption significantly from May through September. Choosing competitive rates like the available 6.48¢/kWh plan can help offset these seasonal spikes in usage.
Fixed-rate plans work best for Laredo residents due to predictable high summer cooling demand. With 87 green energy plans available at virtually no premium (-0.01¢ above average), Laredo residents can access renewable electricity without additional costs while protecting against rate fluctuations.
Compare all 88 available plans to find rates as low as 6.48¢/kWh—well below the 16.25¢/kWh average. Install a programmable thermostat, improve insulation, and service your AC regularly. Consider green energy plans, which cost essentially the same as traditional options in Laredo.
Great choice!
