Types of Green Energy Plans from Gexa Energy
Not every household uses electricity the same way. Some customers want predictable monthly pricing. Others want a plan that rewards certain usage patterns, supports electric vehicle charging, or works with rooftop solar panels. Here are common types of green energy plans to compare.
Fixed-Rate Plans2
Fixed-rate green energy plans offer rate stability for the length of the contract, which can help customers plan around more predictable pricing. They are available in 12-month and 24-month terms.
Usage Credit Plans
Usage credit green energy plans provide a bill credit when your household meets certain usage requirements during the billing cycle. Review the Electricity Facts Label (EFL) to understand the usage threshold that triggers the credit and the pricing at other usage levels.
Free Weekends Plan3
Free weekends green energy plan is a time-of-use (TOU) plan that offers free electricity during weekends. Gexa’s free weekends offers 72 hours of free electricity ($0 energy charge and $0 delivery charges). They can be useful for customers who can shift major electricity usage to those times.
EV Charging Plans4
EV charging green energy plans are designed for electric vehicle owners who charge at home at night. Gexa Energy EV Plans include $0 energy charge for nighttime charging from 11PM to 5AM every single day of the year.
Solar Buyback Plans5
Solar buyback plans are designed for customers with rooftop solar panels and may offer bill credits for excess solar energy sent to the grid. Review buyback rates, credit rules, and plan terms carefully to see if it fits your needs.
How to Choose the Best Green Energy Plan for Your Home
Choosing the best green energy plan starts with understanding how your household uses electricity, how much electricity it uses, and how the plan works.
Compare the Rate Type to Your Lifestyle
Choose a plan that matches how much electricity your home uses and when it uses it. Fixed-rate plans may work well for most usage, while usage credit, time-of-use, EV-friendly, or solar buyback plans may better fit specific habits or needs.
Check the Renewable Content
Review the plan’s renewable percentage to see whether it is 100% renewable or partially renewable. Plans may be backed by wind, solar, or a mix of renewable sources through Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs).
Review the Electricity Facts Label
For Texas customers, the Electricity Facts Label shows key plan details such as pricing at different usage levels, contract length, renewable content, usage assumptions, and transmission and distribution utility (TDU) fees. Review it before enrolling so you understand the cost of the plan.
Understand Contract Terms and Fees
Check the contract length, early termination fee, auto-renewal terms, deposit requirements, TDU charges, and any special setup requirements. The right plan should fit your actual usage, home, schedule, and contract preferences.
How Green Energy Plans Work in Texas
A green energy plan helps customers support renewable electricity generation without installing rooftop solar panels, buying special equipment, or changing how electricity is delivered to the home. With many renewable energy plans, your provider buys Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) to match some or all of the electricity you use, depending on the plan. RECs serve as proof that power from renewable sources has been supplied to the grid in an amount equal to your consumption. If a plan is advertised as 100% renewable, each kWh you use is generally matched with RECs or renewable attributes, as described in the plan terms.

Frequently Asked Questions About Green Energy Plans
Renewable energy certificates, or RECs, represent the environmental and other non-power attributes of renewable electricity generation. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) describes a REC as a market-based instrument tied to renewable electricity generation attributes.
No, green energy plans do not require rooftop solar panels.
Customers can support renewable energy through a green electricity plan even if they rent, live in an apartment, or do not have a suitable roof for solar panels. Rooftop solar is separate from buying a renewable electricity plan. With most green energy plans, your home still receives electricity through the shared grid, while your plan may support renewable generation through renewable energy products or RECs.
Customers who already have rooftop solar panels may want to compare solar buyback plans. Customers without solar panels can still choose plans backed by renewable energy or RECs.
