Cheapest Pulse Power Alternatives

Gexa Energy, Frontier Utilities and 4Change Energy typically advertise the cheapest electric plans in Texas. The lowest advertised rate doesn’t always mean the lowest bill. Check out the table below to see some of the cheapest energy plans in Texas. However, you should know that these energy plans may use bill credits to achieve the lowest rate. Bill credits can cause bill confusion, as you’re not guaranteed to earn the discounted rate every month.
