Fixed Rate Plan Details
Fixed rate plans are a much better deal than variable rates, though the length of the contract you choose is very important. They do have associated cancellation fees, however, depending on your region and the plan you choose.
With Liberty Power, some fixed rate plans feature a cancellation fee of either $100, or twice your average monthly bill, whichever is less. Others require a cancellation fee of $10 for each month remaining in your contract. Deposits may also be requested for fixed rate plans, depending on your credit score.
Green Energy Plans: Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs)
On green plans with Liberty Power, you do not actually receive renewable energy in your home. Instead, Liberty Power purchases Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) which offset 100% of your electricity consumption. RECs invest in renewable energy projects and generation in the United States. For Illinois and Connecticut customers, there is the option to support local renewable energy projects.
Reviews from Customers
Fixed rate plans have delivered savings to many customers.
However, customers report that variable rates can shoot high above their local utility's rates, and are generally not a good idea. There are also concerns regarding Liberty Power's telemarketing practices, with some consumers alleging that methods for signing up new customers are aggressive or misleading.
