When shopping for an electricity plan, it’s important to understand your options. At Gexa Energy, we offer a variety of residential plan types.
Fixed Rate Electricity Plans
A fixed rate electricity plan locks in your price per kilowatt-hour for the duration of your contract, offering price stability and protection from fluctuating Texas electricity rates. This plan can be good for those who want predictable costs and peace of mind, regardless of changes in the energy market.
Features:
- Consistent monthly rate for the length of the contract
- Protection from market volatility
- Available in 12- or 24-month terms

Variable Price Electricity Plans
A variable price electricity plan allows your rate to fluctuate with the market. While these plans may offer flexibility and potential savings during low-demand periods, they also carry the risk of increased costs during peak times. Variable price plans are typically month-to-month, which means you’re not locked into a long-term contract.
Features:
- Month-to-month flexibility
- Rate changes with the energy market
- Potential for lower rates during off-peak times
If you prefer flexibility, a variable price plan might be right for you. Search for electricity rates in your area to see current options.

Time-of-Use Electricity Plans
Time-of-use plans offer different rates depending on when you use electricity. You can save money by using electricity during off-peak times like late nights, weekends, and holidays. However, using electricity during peak times, such as weekdays, can lead to higher rates.
Features:
- Can be an ideal choice for households with flexible schedules
- Potential for free electricity within plan-specified window
- May help reduce grid strain during peak times
