Residential Electricity... Plain and simple.

NEC Co-op Energy · month to month · variable rate · Lubbock Power & Light delivery area

At 1,000 kilowatt hours a month spread across a Texas year, this plan costs $2,119.95 over twelve months — an average of $176.66 a month, or 17.7¢ per kilowatt hour all in. That makes it the 85th cheapest of the 98 plans sold in Lubbock Power & Light territory.

These figures are estimated. We could not read NEC Co-op Energy’s fact label cleanly enough to trust a line-by-line reconstruction, so the rate structure here is solved from the three prices Power to Choose publishes. It reproduces those three points exactly but may miss a condition that only bites at other usage levels. Read the label yourself.

  • The rate is variable, so this price is only what they charge this month.
  • We could not read this plan’s fact label cleanly, so these numbers are reconstructed from its three published prices.

The published comparison points

Checking our arithmetic against theirs

Power to Choose makes every retailer publish an average price at exactly 500, 1,000 and 2,000 kilowatt hours a month. Those are the three numbers we recompute from the fact label; when ours land on theirs we know we have read the label correctly. They assume flat usage every month, which is why they differ from the seasonal figures above.

What is actually in this plan

The fine print, in plain English

Base charge
$7.33 every month before you use any electricity at all. Over a year that is $87.96.
Energy charge
16.933¢ per kilowatt hour, the same at any usage.
Bill credits
None. Nothing to qualify for and nothing to lose.
Minimum usage fee
None.
LP&L delivery charges
Included in the energy charge above. LP&L still charges roughly $0 a month plus 6.2700¢ per kWh; the retailer has folded it in rather than billing it separately.
Early termination fee
None — this is a month-to-month plan.
