Is Green Mountain Energy right for you?
Picking the wrong Green Mountain Energy plan without knowing your home’s energy usage can cost you hundreds or thousands of dollars.
The single most important thing is to know your usage!
The key to avoiding overpaying is knowing your expected usage and comparing the monthly costs for each plan based on that usage amount.
If you see “price per gallon” on a sign for gasoline, it is the price you will pay regardless of how many gallons you pump.
The price per gallon is $3. Pump 10 gallons and pay $30. Simple.
In Texas, buying electricity is not as simple as buying gasoline. The “price per kWh” advertised is based on a specific, exact monthly usage (usually 2000 kWh).
Each plan has a different calculation for determining your monthly bill.
Calculating your effective “price per kWh” requires you to divide your monthly bill by your usage.
Prices advertised as “per kWh” can be misleading because they are based on specific usages, such as 2000 kWh. When shopping, you should look at the total bill for your household’s usage.
It can be a challenge to do that when the math is complex and each plan is different.
ComparePower has already done the complex math for you.
The first step is to help you determine how many kWh you expect to use each month. We then show you the plans and their total monthly cost based on your usage.

Green Mountain Energy reviews
Looking for ratings and reviews for Green Mountain Energy?
Several companies rate electricity providers. ComparePower does not include customer reviews as they are generally biased or easy to manipulate and skew one way or the other (positive or negative).
Often, a review is requested a mere few days after enrolling in a new energy plan, which may not be an adequate amount of time for a customer to experience the product or service.
Many customers who take the time to leave feedback typically do so as an effort to resolve a problem and are using negative feedback as a forum to draw attention to their issue.
Customers who leave positive reviews are generally incentivized to do so and therefore tend to be biased.
So what are we left with? There are a few long-standing customer review portals that attempt to remove bias.
One of these is the Better Business Bureau and the other is the Public Utility Commission of Texas.
- Read customer reviews and ratings about Green Mountain Energy on the Better Business Bureau (BBB) website.
- Read customer complaints about Green Mountain Energy on the Public Utility Commission of Texas website.
