I noticed today on powertochoose today that Stream Energy shows a month to month rate at 12.99 cents\Kwh. This is a great rate but a majority of the residential customers out there use less then 500 Kwh in usage a month. This means in actuality their customer would have to pay about 13.49 cents\kwh. This is actually a decent variable month to month rate if it stays around this rate each month. Unfortunately 12.99 cents\kwh is not going to be the energy rate for most people out there.
| Pricing for TXU Service Area | 500 kWh | 1,000 kWh | 1,500 kWh |
| Month-to-Month Rate | $0.13490 | $0.12990 | $0.12990 |
In comparison Hudson Energy Services and Spark Energy tie with the lowest 12 month fixed term rate. Both companies offer a rate with NO monthly customer charge. This means you don’t have to pay a bogus fee for being their customer. That never really made sense anyway? The rate stays the same the entire year so there are no surprises. Right now a 12 month term makes the most since as rates continue to go up and probably will for awhile.
