This is the most basic part of finding a great <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ohenergyratings.com\/electricity-rates\">Ohio electricity plan<\/a>, but it\u2019s not the only factor.<\/li>\n<li>Cancellation fees \u2013 Most companies charge a cancellation fee if you leave your contract early, but that fee should be reasonable and not so high that you\u2019ll end up paying for 2 plans if you move or decide to change providers.<\/li>\n<li>If you\u2019re choosing a 24 month plan, you want the rates to be stable. Variable rates can fall or spike without warning, making it very hard to budget your power bill.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Public Power 24-Month Fixed Plan<\/h3>\n<p>In the Columbus area, the best 24-month plan is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ohenergyratings.com\/plans\/public-power\/details\/24-month-fixed\"><strong>Public Power 24 Month Fixed Plan<\/strong><\/a>. More than simply a 24-month plan, it offers a great rate, stable pricing and easy terms.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Low electricity rate \u2013 At just 6.3\u00a2 per kWh, the <strong>Public Power 24-Month Fixed Plan <\/strong>is easy on the wallet.<\/li>\n<li>Long-term predictability \u2013 While the temptation may be to look for a 6-month plan and hope that rates go down, it can be really nice to know how much you\u2019re going to pay for electricity for 2 years. If, for example, we have a hot summer, electricity rates might spike just as you\u2019re attempting to pick a new plan. With air conditioners running and lots of electricity in use, rates can jump in summer.<\/li>\n<li>No cancellation fee \u2013 While most of us don\u2019t enter into a contract to leave it early, sometimes circumstances make it inevitable. Not having a cancellation fee can save $50 to $200.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>How long should I commit to this relationship?<\/h3>\n<p>It might seem like 24 months is a long time, but most of us, even renters, will stay in a single place for at least that long. Committing to 6 month rates isn\u2019t always the best choice. When Columbus is in the midst of a heat wave and homeowners\u2019 AC units are humming with electricity, that drives up Ohio electricity rates fast! If your 6-month contract ends in July or August, you might find yourself signing a new contract when AEP\u2019s electricity rates are through the roof. It\u2019s a simple matter of supply and demand.<\/p>\n<p>This <strong>Public Power 24 Month Fixed Plan<\/strong>, on the other hand, is a great choice. It\u2019s predictable, has no cancellation fee, and is supplied by a great company that has a history of great customer service.<\/p>\n<p>Check out the other great Ohio electricity plans and rates at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ohenergyratings.com\/electricity-rates\">https:\/\/www.ohenergyratings.com\/electricity-rates<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Save More Money on Electricity Rates in Columbus, Ohio.
