This plan's 36-month term would run roughly November 2026 to October 2029, an estimated $5205 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 CenterPoint territory average about 14.5¢/kWh right now, roughly 1.1¢/kWh more than a typical 12-month plan (13.4¢/kWh), about $12/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.
