Gexa Energy’s Heat Rate + Index product allows businesses to decouple their future electricity costs from the energy markets, tie them to the natural gas markets, transact within the natural gas markets and enjoy the flexibility to buy fuel (natural gas) when advantageous market opportunities arise. It’s like owning your own gas-fired power plant specifically fitted to your business’ needs. Heat Rate + Index products can be incorporated into any retail product structure, whether wholesale block and index, a shaped block and index or a full-requirements type retail product.
Gexa Energy and the customer agree to a specific heat rate for the contract term.
As the natural gas market presents more attractive prices, the customer can then lock in their electric commodity rate based on the gas market price.
If the customer decides not to lock in their electric commodity rate, then the natural gas index monthly settlement rate will be used to calculate the final electric commodity rate.
As prices fluctuate, our Heat Rate + Index products give customers the opportunity to take advantage of lower natural gas market prices as time passes
Heat Rate Index entails a higher risk to market volatility but may result in a lower overall price compared to a fixed price product.
