Pros: Long Term Bill Stability Cons: Expensive

Our Review

Just Energy's Basics 36 is a plan that is good for large homeowners that don't need to worry about saving a few extra dollars on electricity. Its rates are comparable to some green energy plans Just offers, without the benefit of being a green energy plan. It's definitely geared towards larger homeowners, as there is a $4.99 usage charge if customers use less than 400 kWh in a month, so definitely don't pick this if you're in an apartment.
