Types Of Electricity Plans in Pennsylvania

Fixed-Term Plan

Fixed-term plans provide price protection for the duration of the contract. While this is not the same as a fixed rate and your rate could vary with your usage in accordance with the Electricity Facts Label, your rate typically won’t change for at least three billing cycles or the term of the contract.

Variable-Term Plan

With variable-term plans, the rate you pay fluctuates with the market and you’re charged a different amount from month to month. The benefit to this type of plan is they often lack contracts, and if the market price goes down, so will your bill.

Renewable Plans

Renewable energy plans are a cleaner option to help you reduce your carbon footprint. Most renewable energy providers have fixed-term plans available, so you can put your wallet and the planet at ease.
