Fixed-rate plans will have a set price for the term of the contract. Regardless of weather, natural events, or market volatility, your rate will not change. In most cases, fixed-rate plans have a term length of 6, 12, 24, or 36 months. We recommend fixed-rate plans for most customers.

Price changes may impact your monthly electricity bill in the form of price hikes. In most cases, we do not recommend variable-rate plans.

McAllen Business Profile

Founded in 1905, McAllen is now home to a vibrant economy that revolves around global trade primarily with Mexico thanks to the increase in cross-border trading led by the North American Free Trade Association. This increase in trade in McAllen brought down the unemployment rate to just 5.6% in October of 2019 from 22.6% in 1990. 

The city of McAllen heavily participates in the maquiladora economy. This type of economy allows factories to largely operate and transport goods duty free and tariff-free. Between the maquiladora economy and a push by the North American Free Trade Association, McAllen was able to be designated as a Foreign-Trade Zone. The McAllen Miller International Airport is also a designated Foreign-Trade Zone which facilitates any air cargo. This led to a huge boom to the city which can now import products duty free.

McAllen is poised to continue its amazing growth as foreign trade continues to grow within the city bringing the unemployment rate down even further.
