    How to Find the Best Electricity Rate in Lebanon

    When shopping for a new electricity plan for you home, here are our recommended steps:

    Step 1: Determine your current status. Are you currently with the utility or a supplier? It will show this on your bill. If you are with a supplier, it should include your contract expiration date. If you are with the utility you are likely on the Price to Compare, their default rate.

    Step 2: Consider what’s important to you. Do you want contract flexibility? Do you prefer the convenience of a longer-term contract? Or is just the cheapest rate your focus?

    Step 3: Shop online using an comparison site like ElectricityPlans.com. Simply enter your zip code to view available rates near you. Remember to shopping tools to select the type of plan and term length, or just sort by price to see the cheapest electricity plans.

    Step 4: Compare plan features to find the best electricity plan for your home. Make sure you pay attention to these elements.

    • Rate per kWh. The rate per kWh tells you what you pay for electricity.
    • Early Termination Fee. If you change your mind or find a better deal, what will it cost you to switch? Look for providers that don’t charge an early termination fee.
    • Monthly Fee. Most suppliers don’t charge a monthly fee. Those that do have an enticing low rate per kWh. Make sure you factor that monthly fee into your price per kWh. These plans are typically only worth it for larger homes.
    • Contract Term. Contract terms can vary from 12 to 36 months. It’s ok to commit to a longer term plan if it’s a great rate. Especially if there’s no early termination fee!

    Step 5: Sign up with your supplier. Once you have picked your electricity rate and plan, simply sign up on the supplier’s web site. Your new supplier will handle everything with your electric utility. Your new rate will start within 3-7 days.

    Moving to Lebanon and need to set up your electricity service? Contact your utility company first to set up your electricity account. Then shop online to pick a supplier. You’ll need your account number to switch your provider.
