Did you know that you can get 100% of your electricity in Texas (Houston anyway) from renewable sources...?
Due to laziness and a lack of motivation, we had not shopped around for electricity providers.... until now. Aparently this makes me a gullible fool. First off, when I started looking around for alternatives, I was having a hard time finding a provider that was as expensive as the one that we currently had! We had Reliant Energy, which had a variable rate that averaged $0.16 per KW. One can blow this rate out of the water, just by doing some simple looking around. Anyway, instead of just going with the cheapest rate, we decided to go green. We choose as an electricity provider, Green Mountain Energy Company. They provide 100% of their energy by means of renewable resources (wind and water). Oh, and by the way, they do it for a fixed rate of $0.14 per KW. A full 2 cents cheaper than our previous coal and gas based provider.
Here is a great website to compare prices and find a new provider: Power to choose. Good luck!
