Compare electricity providers in Texas

See current plans for an eligible Texas service address. Your wires company and your retail electric provider are different, and many city-owned utilities are not in this market.

Compare Texas electricity plans

See current plans, pricing, and contract options available for eligible Texas service addresses. Compare the total price at your expected usage and review the Electricity Facts Label before enrolling.

Results are address-specific, and plan availability, usage credits, fees, and contract terms can change the total. Review the provider's Electricity Facts Label and Terms of Service before enrolling.

Utility Rates may receive compensation when you use this comparison tool. Compensation does not change our city utility research, source selection, or editorial explanations. We are not your retail electric provider; enrollment, if you continue, is a contract with the provider named in the offer. See our privacy policy and terms. The state's official site is Power to Choose.

How this connects to our Texas utility estimates

Our Texas utility cost page compares typical monthly electric, water, sewer, and trash bills. In competitive cities the electric figure is a transmission and distribution charge plus a representative supply benchmark. It is not a plan you can enroll in, and we do not update it daily.

Offers in the tool above come from a partner. They can change by address, usage, credit, and contract term. A city mailing address is not proof that the meter can shop: confirm the utility printed on the bill.

City electricity comparison guides

These cities are in retail electric choice in our research. Each guide explains the local delivery utility and links back to that city's utility estimate.

Cities where retail choice may not apply

Some addresses in these cities are served by a municipal utility or cooperative. Read the city guide before you treat a comparison result as available there.

Common questions

Shopping applies where your meter is in Texas retail electric choice and a transmission and distribution utility such as Oncor, CenterPoint, AEP Texas, or Texas-New Mexico Power delivers the power. Austin Energy, CPS Energy in San Antonio, El Paso Electric, and many municipal and cooperative utilities sell electricity directly. Those addresses generally cannot enroll through a retail-choice comparison.
The Texas utility page estimates a typical monthly bill for electric, water, sewer, and trash at fixed usage. In competitive cities the electric line is a delivery charge plus a representative supply benchmark, and we do not refresh it daily. This page shows current partner offers for an address you enter. Those offers are not our city estimates.
No. Utility Rates may receive compensation when you use this comparison tool. If you enroll, the contract is with the provider named in the offer. Read that provider's Electricity Facts Label and terms before you authorize service.
Power to Choose is the Public Utility Commission of Texas official electricity shopping site. Use it as an independent check. This page is a separate partner comparison, not the state site.
