Find out why this usually worst choice is now the best one for shoppers in Georgia.<\/em><\/center><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>We know Georgia energy shoppers are busy squeezing the last vitamin D out of that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/local\/atlanta\/2022\/07\/18\/atlanta-summer-heat-wave-record-temperatures\">toasty summer sun<\/a>. But it\u2019s no time to take your foot off of the gas! That\u2019s because the stars have aligned to give you the sneakiest of bill-busting aces up your sleeve &#8211; but it won\u2019t last long. It comes, improbably, in the form of variable <a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/natural-gas-rates\">gas rates<\/a>. Yes, really! Get off that fainting couch! But why are they suddenly the best deal? And, more importantly, how can they land you cheap power? Let\u2019s take a look&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>What\u2019s all this Fuss about Variable Gas Rates?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Savvy shoppers and regular readers (and the overlap here is round about 100%) will know we\u2019ll rarely give variable rate plans top billing. That\u2019s because variable rates can be pricey, and have a nasty habit of wayward spiking. And when they spike, boy do they spike!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But at this time of year, variable rate plans are among the cheapest on the market. Plus, with warm weather expected to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov\/products\/predictions\/long_range\/seasonal.php?lead=1\">trail over into fall<\/a>, you won\u2019t really be using all that much gas. So, barring some truly gargantuan market catastrophe (and let\u2019s not rule it out!), your chances of getting cheap-to-moderate bills would be pretty golden.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most importantly, those shoulder months are just around the corner. And you want to be able to jump on the lower rates ASAP if, or when, they come up. With a fixed rate plan, you\u2019ll have to shell out an exit fee to do so. But variable rate plans don\u2019t charge you a dime!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Best Variable Energy Rates for GA<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To show you just how good a deal these variable gas rates are right now, we\u2019ll compare them to the cheapest 12 month rate on the market. That\u2019s the <strong>SureLock 12<\/strong> plan from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/companies\/xoom-energy\"><strong>XOOM Energy<\/strong><\/a><strong>. <\/strong>These guys usually offer great rates, but this one (the cheapest!) is a whopping 99.9 cents per therm. Add on the $5.85 monthly charge, and the $100 cancellation fee, and it\u2019ll really cost you over fall.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By contrast, you could pick up the <strong>Market Intro<\/strong> plan from <strong>Georgia Natural Gas\u00ae. <\/strong>This introductory discount rate is identical, at 99.9 cents per therm, with possibly a cheaper monthly charge at $4.99-$9.99. And whilst it\u2019s capped at 2 months, that\u2019s all you really need. The best bit? No exit fee!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But you can do even better, folks, with the <strong>Acquisition Variable<\/strong> plan from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/companies\/gas-south\"><strong>Gas South<\/strong><\/a>. The monthly charge is a skosh pricier at $6.95 to $9.95. But the rate is unbeatable: 69 cents per therm. Plus there\u2019s no exit fee. Plus-plus, there&#8217;s no two-month cap!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Shop your Variable Energy Rate Now!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>See what we mean? Combine low variable rates (or pricey fixed ones!), sparing energy usage, and imminent shoulder months, and a variable rate really is your best bet for the next month or two. That\u2019s why variable gas rates are the best deal now, but it won\u2019t be that way for long!
