    Constellation Plan Analysis

    12 Month (No Min Usage Fee)

    Our Rating:
    Plan Term: 12 Months
    Plan Type: Fixed Rate

    Constellation's 12 Month Residential Fixed Rate electricity plan is a standard, no frills electricity plan. It is a flat plan, meaning that the kWh charge is similar across all three usage tiers. That means customers get predictable, reliable bills with no Gotchas, in exchange for maybe not having the lowest possible electricity bills. It's good for people looking to be able to consistently predict their electricity bills every month.
    thumb_upPros:
    Steady, predictable bills
    thumb_downCons:
    Not the cheapest rate, no special discounts

    12 Month Usage Bill Credit

    Our Rating:
    Plan Term: 12 Months
    Plan Type: Bill Credit

    Constellation's 12 Month Fixed Rate with Usage Bill Credit plan is one of the first Bill Credit plans that hit the market, and it's still consistently one of the best values. What makes this bill credit plan different from most is that it has two separate credits, one at 1,000 kWh of usage, and another smaller credit at 2,000 kWh of usage. What this means is this plan doesn't just pay off for customers if they hit an exact usage bullseye, it makes sure they have savings that continue to be built in the more energy a customer uses. This way you see low average kWh charges as long as you're a consistent high energy consumer, which makes this one of the more reliable Bill Credit plans on the market. Even though the energy charge is a bit high, the bill credits keep the overall bills low, as long as you use a lot of electricity.
    thumb_upPros:
    Great Bill Credits at 1k and 2k usage
    thumb_downCons:
    High Energy Charge

    24 Month Electric Vehicle Plan

    Our Rating:
    Plan Term: 24 Months
    Plan Type: Fixed Rate

    This is a very straightforward, simple EV charging plan. The plan has a low enregy charge, which means it's a good plan from customers from a pricing perspective. The rates are also flat across all usage tiers, so there won't be any bill surprises. Additionally, the kWh rate during the charging window is Zero, while some other plans just give discounts for the energy charge, so this is a great benefit of this plan. There's no monthly recurring charge, and the early termination fee is just $150. All in all, a great plan for EV users. The only real downside is the 4 hour charging window when other plans offer 6 hour charging windows for the discount. But for anyone with a consistent schedule, that isn't too big of a deal, I wouldn't imagine.

    12Mo Usage Bill Credit + A/C Protection for 2 Units and HVAC Monitoring

    Our Rating:
    Plan Term: 12 Months
    Plan Type: Bill Credit

    Constellation's 12 Month Residential Fixed Rate With Usage Bill Credit and A/C Protection for 2 Units is a decent plan for customers with small or medium homes and just one A/C unit. The plan comes with warranty style coverage for some percentage of the unit if they were to be replaced. The plan itself doesn't have bad rates, and the bill credits at 1,000 kWh and 2,000 kWh help keep the total bill costs down. For high energy consomption users, this plan makes sense for folks looking for some peace of mind around waranty coverage for their home A/C units. It also includes HVAC Monitoring.
