Short Term Options for Atlanta Shoppers
Some Atlanta natural gas shoppers will be looking for a short term solution this month. For example, you’re renting, holding out for cheaper natural gas rates, or just don’t want a commitment longer than a month or two. Whatever category you fit into, we have a few great short term plans for you. Without further ado, let’s check out the cheapest short term Atlanta gas deals.
Three Best Short Term Atlanta Gas Deals
These three short term plans give you some flexibility if you don’t want to lock into a long term plan right now.
Firstly, it’s the SCANA Energy Introductory Variable Rate with a $0.399 per therm rate. This rate will take you through one month. Additionally there is a $5.95 monthly charge. As an added incentive to stay with SCANA Energy, the plan includes a $100 bill credit spread over twenty months.
Secondly, there is the Georgia Natural Gas® Market Intro plan also with a $0.399 per therm rate. This plan will take you through two months at this intro rate. Additionally, you benefit from a $0 monthly charge for 2 months.
Finally, we have the Gas South Intro Variable with a $0.490 per therm rate. This plan will get you through one month. The monthly charge is $6.95-$9.95. One special benefit they offer is not collecting a deposit.
Can I Keep My Rate When This Plan Ends?
With each of these plans, it’s important to understand that the rates are only introductory rates for variable rate plans. After the introductory period, the plans will switch to the providers’ standard variable rate. Let’s take a minute to look at the standard variable rates, according to the PSC, for these providers this month and how they compare to introductory rates.
- Scana Energy $1.999 $0.399
- Georgia Natural Gas® $2.339 $0.399
- Gas South $2.090 $0.490
As you can see, at minimum, the standard variable rate is more than four times higher than the introductory rate. To avoid paying these high rates, you want to grab a fixed rate plan before the end of the intro term.
