What is a Fixed Price Energy Contract? A fixed-price energy contract is when a power company offers consumers a fixed rate that is guaranteed for the term of the contract. Typically, the fixed rate is slightly above what customers are currently paying on traditional variable rate energy plans.
(June 2007). A fixed interest rate loan is a loan where the interest rate doesn't fluctuate during the fixed rate period of the loan. This allows the borrower to accurately predict their future payments. Variable rate loans, by contrast, are anchored to the prevailing discount rate. A fixed interest rate is based on the lender's assumptions about the average discount rate over the fixed rate period. For example, when the discount rate is historically low, fixed rates are normally higher than variable rates because interest rates are more likely to rise during the fixed rate period.
