Estimated costs are informational. Provider rates and plan terms may change. Confirm current details directly with the provider.

This list is the mirror image of the no-bill-credit list. Instead of removing plans that reward you above a usage threshold, it removes plans that charge you below one. It comes from the same quality-checked inventory as the compare tool, and a plan is left out if a minimum-usage fee was detected on its EFL in any territory.

“Did not detect” describes our data, not a guarantee. Fees are read from each plan's Electricity Facts Label, and a fee we could not read would not keep a plan off this list, so confirm the fee line on the EFL before enrolling. For how the fee is calculated and how to avoid it, see the minimum-usage fee guide.

EFL average prices in cents/kWh, including delivery charges; ranges span delivery (TDSP) territories. Prices assume no Auto Pay or paperless billing, so a credit that needs either is left out and a fee charged without them is included; both are noted with the plan. Sorted by the 500 kWh column. Plan terms change — confirm current rates and conditions with the provider before enrolling.

How This List Is Ranked

Plans are ordered by EFL average price at 500 kWh from the same quality-checked inventory our compare tool prices; ranges span delivery territories. A plan without a minimum-usage fee can still carry a usage-based bill credit, a base charge, usage tiers or time-of-use windows, all flagged in the Notes column. Check the column nearest your usage and estimate the full bill at your ZIP.

Who This Category May & May Not Fit

May fit

Apartments, condos and efficient homes whose usage often sits below common fee thresholds
Households with seasonal dips: mild spring and fall months, travel, or a second home
Homes with rooftop solar, whose grid usage can drop sharply in sunny months

May not fit

Homes that use well above any fee threshold every month: the fee never applies, so it shouldn't drive the choice
Shoppers who expect this list to exclude bill credits: it doesn't, and a credit can still reprice a low-usage month

A Fee Charged vs a Credit Lost

A minimum-usage fee is a charge added to the bill in a month when usage falls below the plan's floor. A usage-based bill credit works the other way: it is subtracted only in months that reach the threshold, so a low month loses it. Both make the bill jump at a threshold, which is why this page and the no-bill-credit list are separate filters. Plans on both lists had neither condition detected.

Illustrative Example: A Fee Over a Year

A hypothetical plan, not a specific listing, to show the arithmetic:

Fee threshold — 1,000 kWh per month
Minimum-usage fee — $10 in any month below the threshold
Household usage — 600–800 kWh every month (an apartment)
Result — the fee applies every month: $10 × 12 = $120 a year before taxes

What to Check Before Enrolling

“Did not detect” is not a guarantee

Fees are read from each plan's EFL. Plan versions change and a fee we could not read would not appear here, so confirm the minimum-usage line on the EFL before enrolling.

Bill credits can still apply

This list doesn't exclude usage-based bill credits. A credit plan can look cheap at its threshold and cost more in a lower-usage month; the Notes column flags the credits we detected.

Base charges weigh more at low usage

A flat monthly base charge isn't a minimum-usage fee, but the less you use, the more it adds per kWh. Compare the 500 kWh column.

Reading the EFL for These Plans

On the EFL, check the “Minimum Usage Fee” or “Fees/Credits” line for any charge that applies below a usage level, then the base charge, any usage credit and its threshold, the term length and the early termination fee. The average prices at 500, 1,000 and 2,000 kWh include every recurring charge on the EFL, so compare the one nearest your usage.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does TrueBill decide a plan has no minimum-usage fee?

We read the fee terms from each plan's Electricity Facts Label. A plan appears here when no minimum-usage fee was detected in any delivery territory where it's listed. That describes our data, not a guarantee, so confirm the fee line on the EFL before you enroll.

Why is this list ranked at 500 kWh?

Minimum-usage fees matter most to lower-usage homes, so the list is sorted by EFL average price at 500 kWh. The 1,000 and 2,000 kWh columns are shown too; if your home uses more, rank plans at your own usage in the compare tool.

Are bill-credit plans included?

Yes. This list only removes plans with a detected minimum-usage fee. A usage-based bill credit is a different condition: it lowers the bill above a usage threshold and disappears below it. To remove those as well, see the no-bill-credit list.
