Power Watch: Electricity rates for July 2009

Is electricity deregulation finally working? NO! But rates are significantly lower this month than it was one year ago.

The lowest rate for a 12 month contract is by Amigo Energy at 10.7. (might want to check out their reputation) The highest rate is 14.6 by First Choice (ditto). Reliant is at 14.0 and TXU is at 13.5. Last year the rates were much higher:
Consumers can lock into to a relatively "low" rate for an extended term, avoiding any fluctuation in profits. Topping the charts for the highest fixed rates is First Choice Power at 22.8 cents for 12 months, and US Energy Savings Corp has the lowest fixed rate at 16.
