This plan's 18-month term would run roughly November 2026 to April 2028, an estimated $2611 over that window. Your rate isn't locked past then. The yearly cost figure annualizes the rate so plans of different lengths compare directly.

Around 2-year plans in CenterPoint territory average about 14.2¢/kWh right now, roughly 0.8¢/kWh more than a typical 12-month plan (13.4¢/kWh), about $9/month more at a typical Texas household's usage. A longer contract locks your energy rate against increases; whether that premium pays off depends on where prices go. See how rate locks have paid off historically.

Kilowise read this plan's own Fact Sheet formula as an all-in $4.90/month fixed charge (REP base charge plus TDU delivery, combined) plus 13.672¢/kWh (REP energy charge plus TDU delivery, combined), the same formula behind the estimate above. It has no usage-threshold credits, so no bill-credit cliff.

This plan's Fact Sheet doesn't state its delivery charge as a number, only a lookup link, so the delivery portion above is estimated from your TDU's current published rate and may not match this plan's own exactly.
