Unfortunately the other providers mentioned do not offer this choice however some of their electric rates are cheaper. I'm out at powertochoose.org and <a href="http://www.startexpower.com/pages/check_availability.aspx?promo_code=EC1" rel="nofollow">Startex Power</a> shows as being at 13.5 cents for the Houston area and 11.3 cents for the Dallas Fort Worth area. So Startex still wins in the Dallas area just not in Houston (<a href="http://www.championenergyservices.com/promo.asp?promo=SAVERPLUS" rel="nofollow">Champion Energy</a> would be the winner in Houston). They don't charge the $4.95 or the $9.99 monthly charge regardless of the energy you use. Ambit's Energy rate is quoted as being .1099 cents kwh or the same as saying 11 cents a kwh. If you add in the $9.99 charge you are around 12.1 cents a kwh. This beats Startex in the Houston area but does not beat Champion Energy in the Houston area. Champion Energy would total 11.85 cents which includes their $4.95 monthly service fee in the rate. Th only time the Ambit energy rate would beat out everyone is if you are using 1,000 kwh or more in energy each month. In comparison the Ambit rate you mention has a $9.99 monthly service charge if you are under 1,000 kwh a month. They charge .1299 cents if you are under 500 kwh. If you are using 999 kwh but above 500kwh this means the rate would be higher even if you are using 900 kwh making the rate more like 12.1 cents a kwh. This would beat the Startex rate in Houston but not in Dallas Fort Worth. Also <a href="http://www.championenergyservices.com/promo.asp?promo=SAVERPLUS" rel="nofollow">Champion Energy</a> would still beat this Ambit rate in Houston as they are charging 11.3 cents kwh with a $4.95 a month service fee. If you add in the fee you end up paying 11.85 cents a kwh for an electric rate in Houston. This is a fantastic rate for Houston right now. From the looks of it <a href="http://www.championenergyservices.com/promo.asp?promo=SAVERPLUS" rel="nofollow">Champion Energy</a> would beat out both <a href="http://www.startexpower.com/pages/check_availability.aspx?promo_code=EC1" rel="nofollow">Startex</a> and Ambit for the best electric rate price in Houston as of Nov 12 2007.

Yes the Certified Green 1-Year Term is correct at $0.1249, but to compare StarTex Power to this plan is wrong since StarTex Power does not provide a Green product (renewable energy). Ambit Energy is one of only two energy providers in Texas certified by Green-e (www.green-e.org). Also if you go to powertochoose.com you'll find the Ambit 12 month fixed rate is $0.1099 compare to StarTex Power 12 month plan is either $0.1230 pr $0.1350 (2 different plans to choose from). What!
