This plan's 36-month term would run roughly November 2026 to October 2029, an estimated $6072 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 3-year plans in Texas-New Mexico Power territory average about 15.9¢/kWh right now, roughly 0.9¢/kWh more than a typical 12-month plan (15.0¢/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.
