Constellation 12 Month Usage Bill Credit

Two credits stack, but each has its own threshold. This offer pays $35 at 1,000 kWh and another $15 at 2,000 kWh. At 2,000 kWh the total credit is $50, not $15. Below 1,000 kWh neither applies. Both thresholds matter when comparing the advertised examples.

The usage test

See what changes at the credit threshold

Each bar is one separate monthly bill. Compare the readings just below and at each threshold: using slightly more electricity can qualify for a credit that changes the bill sharply.

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 $1,684.46, equivalent to 14.04¢/kWh. It earns a credit in 5 months, with $175.00 in total credits.

Before you choose

Who should take a closer look

Review how often you reach each threshold. Our standard seasonal year reaches 1,000 kWh in five months and never reaches 2,000, so it receives the first credit five times and none of the second.

The higher credit at 2,000 kWh does not guarantee a lower average rate than at 1,000: the credit is spread across more electricity. The provider-authored EFL for this offer is hosted by ElectricityPlans.com.
