Constellation 12 Month (No Min Usage Fee)
This Constellation offer does not depend on earning usage credits. The broker labels this offer “12 Month (No Min Usage Fee).” The matching provider EFL is titled “12 Month Residential Fixed Rate.” It lists a 7.22-cent energy charge, a $0 base charge and a $0 minimum usage fee. That is a different structure from Constellation’s Usage Bill Credit offer.

What goes into the bill
Oncor delivery was checked on October 23, 2026 against the delivery schedule updated October 4, 2026. The modeled delivery amounts are separate from the fixed supplier energy charge. These assumptions stay fixed in this dated analysis.
How the bill changes with usage
Each bar is one separate monthly bill. With no usage credits, costs increase steadily. The fixed delivery charge is spread over more kWh as usage rises.

1,000 kWh on average is not 1,000 every month
Our standard seasonal example uses 12,000 kWh over twelve months. Its modeled annual cost is $1,739.20, equivalent to 14.49¢/kWh. With no usage-credit thresholds, the annual energy cost depends on the total kWh rather than which months use the most.
| Month | kWh | Credit | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| January | 1,010 | $0.00 | $146.34 |
| February | 890 | $0.00 | $129.44 |
| March | 790 | $0.00 | $115.35 |
| April | 720 | $0.00 | $105.49 |
| May | 890 | $0.00 | $129.44 |
| June | 1,180 | $0.00 | $170.29 |
| July | 1,390 | $0.00 | $199.87 |
| August | 1,430 | $0.00 | $205.51 |
| September | 1,220 | $0.00 | $175.93 |
| October | 930 | $0.00 | $135.07 |
| November | 730 | $0.00 | $106.90 |
| December | 820 | $0.00 | $119.58 |
| Year | 12,000 | $0.00 | $1,739.20 |
The annual total sums unrounded monthly calculations; displayed monthly amounts are rounded to cents. Your usage, billing cycles, fees and future delivery charges can change the result.
Who should take a closer look
Consider the structure if your monthly use varies enough that usage-credit offers are hard to compare. No credit disappears when you move below 1,000 or 2,000 kWh. The main electricity-cost comparison is the energy charge plus delivery across a full year.
The similarly named Constellation plans are not interchangeable. Use the linked EFL version 5046449 to identify this broker offer. The EFL excludes taxes and certain fees from its examples; the modeled costs likewise exclude conditional account fees. The fixed energy charge does not freeze delivery charges.
Read the contract’s cancellation conditions and exceptions. A fixed energy rate does not freeze delivery charges or other changes permitted by the contract.
