Top story · Plan Structure

Usage-sensitive plans: the advertised price depends on how much you use

Some plans subtract a bill credit only when monthly usage reaches 1,000 kWh. On 11 EFL-verified $125 bill-credit plans, the median bill was $62.03 at 1,000 kWh and $186.84 at 999 kWh: one kilowatt-hour less cost $124.79 to $124.82 more. These plans come from one provider and the EFLs are historical.

The same design sets the lowest advertised prices. On Nov 10, 2026, the lowest 1,000 kWh price in every utility area belonged to a usage-sensitive plan, and those plans listed 18.5¢ to 21.3¢ at 500 kWh. Usage-sensitive plans were 6% to 8% of fixed-rate listings.
