Our assessment:

This is a "Bill Credit" plan, which means it usually has a higher per kWh charge, which is offset by a bill credit if you use a certain amount of energy. If you do not qualify for the bill credit, your bill could be larger than expected.

For a more predictable bill, you should choose a "Fixed Rate" plan.

Plan Renewal:

If you order this plan and start it today, you will be up for renewal 36 months from now in October of 2028.

Since this plan expires in October, you can take advantage of seasonally lower rates when you renew.

    How We Rate

    We aggregate data from multiple sources, including our customer reviews, rates, Public Utility Commission statistics, JD Power ratings, Better Business Bureau, and surveys.

    We like Chariot for a couple simple reasons: Simple rates, all the big company perks: a mobile app, online account, usage stats and competitive rate and  big company backing form 174 Power. They are a BIG solar developer and all plans are 100% green energy.

    Chariot has been featured only once on our top 5 list. Mostly because they pulled back from acquiring customers after the 2021 Uri storm. Looks like they're back in acquisiton mode, and that's good for you.

    When their rates are good - they are sooo good. And then they pull back. We also like that they are deeply commited to solar and solar buy back products. They tick all the boxes, and when they have competitve rates - they are a great retailer.

    Chariot Energy's positive reviews highlight competitive rates for renewable energy, transparent pricing, and helpful weekly usage reports. Customers appreciate their proactive communication, especially during the 2021 Texas winter storm. The company generally responds to negative reviews with apologies and offers to resolve issues.

    Solarize 36 is a good plan for electricity customers who's usage fluctuates across usage tiers over the course of the year. What that means is customres who use 900 kWh in a month in the spring, but 1900 kWh in August. That way customers with wide varieances in usage don't get bitten by rates that have big jumps between usage tiers.

    Free Nights 36

    More Information
    Our Rating:
    Plan Term: 36 Months
    Plan Type: Fixed Rate

    This is a pretty decent time of use plan for "Free Nights." The rates are low across all usage tiers of 500, 1000, and 2000 kWh. Of course, the $9.95 monthly base charge is very high for the market, and probably what makes the lower rates possible. The 11 PM window for free energy starts pretty late compared to some other plans, so folks who can schedule their appliances and/or have an electric vehicle to charge make the most sense for this plan. The cancellation fee of $15 per month remaining on contract is also nice.
    thumb_upPros:
    This is a pretty good Time of Use Plan, with free nights, and a decent rate accross all tiers of usage. 100% green energy.
    thumb_downCons:
    This plan has a $9.95 monthly charge, which is pretty high adds almost $120 a year to your electricity bills.

    Plan Term: 36 Months
    Plan Type: Bill Credit

    This plan is good for a very specific segment of customer, namely those that qualify for the bill credit but don't use that much energy more than the bill credit. Otherwise the high energy charge will bite customers on the low and high end of the energy consumption spectrum. If you can be sure you control your usage and hit the window every month, this is a good plan for you. Probably someone with a medium sized home, but doesn't have a pool.
    thumb_upPros:
    $90 bill credit at 1,000 kWh of usage. 100% green energy. No monthly recurring charge.
    thumb_downCons:
    Really expensive Energy Charge, expensive if you don't hit that bill credit.
