Comparing energy plans is complicated. Which is why we are working hard to make it easy. We recommend that you review your energy usage for the past year to figure out your monthly and seasonal usage. When comparing plans, make sure you enter your energy usage and then focus on two main factors: your energy rate (per kWh) and contract length. Use EnergyBot to find the lowest electricity rate, guaranteed.
EnergyBot makes it easy to switch. Simply select your new plan, provide us with information about your business, and then upload a copy of your most recent energy bill. The EnergyBot team will seamlessly work with your new supplier to setup your new energy plan contract and make sure your service continues without interruption.

You will pay your electricity bill directly to your local utility company. EnergyBot will never send you a bill.
The average Texas electricity bill for 1000 kWh depends on your plan’s electricity rate and your local utility provider’s delivery charges. At 12¢ per kWh, energy costs are about $120, plus $30–$40 in regulated TDU fees. Currently, the average residential electricity bill in Texas is $150-$160 for kWh usage.
A large home in Texas will typically have an electricity bill around 2000 kW– around double that of a small home. At 12¢ per kWh, usage charges equal $240, plus $60–$70 in Texas TDU delivery fees. You can expect an average total electric bill around $300–$320 depending on your electricity provider and local utility company charges.
To estimate a Texas electricity bill at 1500 kWh, multiply your usage by the plan’s rate and add TDU charges. At 12¢ per kWh, that’s $180 plus about $40–$50 in Oncor or Centerpoint delivery fees. Your total electric bill will average $220–$230 per month, although that may range depending on who your local utility provider is.
High-usage households in Texas consuming 4000 kWh per month will pay significantly more. At 12¢ per kWh, energy charges are $480 plus about $100 in regulated delivery fees. This puts a 4000 kWh Texas electricity bill close to $580 depending on the retail provider.
The average monthly Texas electricity bill for 1700 kWh is typically $200–$250. At 12¢ per kWh, that equals $204 in usage charges plus around $45 in TDU delivery charges. Many Texas households fall into this usage range.
To calculate a Texas electric bill, multiply your monthly kWh usage by the plan’s electricity rate, then add TDU delivery charges and taxes. Delivery charges are regulated fees from Oncor, CenterPoint, AEP, or TNMP. This ensures your total electricity cost reflects both energy costs and delivery fees. You can estimate your electricity bill based on home size here.
Oncor delivery charges are regulated Texas electricity fees that help pay for power line maintenance, restoration in the event of a power outage, and meter service. They include a fixed monthly fee plus a per-kWh charge. Every electricity plan in Oncor’s service area includes these pass-through charges. Currently Oncor’s delivery charges consist of a fixed monthly customer charge of $4.23 and a per-kilowatt-hour (kWh) usage charge of $0.0529/kWh.
CenterPoint and Oncor delivery charges in Texas both include fixed monthly and per-kWh fees. The exact amounts differ slightly and are updated by the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT). Your electricity provider simply passes these regulated fees directly to your bill. Currently Centerpoint’s delivery charges are slightly higher with a fixed monthly charge of $4.39 and a variable rate charge of $0.0535/kWh. Oncor’s charges, on the other hand, consist of a fixed monthly customer charge of $4.23 and a per-kilowatt-hour (kWh) usage charge of $0.0529/kWh.
Texas electricity plan rates are advertised at “average usage levels” like 1000, 2000, or 3000 kWh. If your usage falls outside these levels, bill credits, base charges, and TDU delivery fees can raise your effective rate. Additionally, many electricity providers use tricky energy rates and gimmicky electricity plans, such as “Free Nights and Weekends” to entice you with energy rates that appear cheaper than they actually are when your monthly bill rolls around.
To calculate your Texas electric bill with taxes and fees, multiply your usage by your electricity rate. From there you’ll add TDU delivery fees, base charges, and state taxes. Texas electricity bills also include a 6.25% sales tax plus local city taxes. Using your past monthly kWh usage ensures the most accurate estimate of monthly bills. You can also find your exact monthly energy usage with your ESID number.
Bill credit electricity plans in Texas provide savings only if your energy usage falls within the required range (like 1200–2000 kWh). If your monthly usage consistently meets the credit threshold, your effective electricity rate drops. If not, the plan may end up costing more than a standard fixed-rate plan.
Texas TDU pass-through fees are regulated charges for delivery, line maintenance, power outages, and metering. They typically add $30–$100 per month to your electricity bill depending on your home’s energy usage. These charges are the same no matter which retail electric provider you choose and are regulated by the PUC.
A utility pass-through fee in Texas is a regulated charge from your Transmission and Distribution Utility (TDU). It covers poles, wires, and meters that deliver power to your home. Your retail electricity provider collects this fee and passes it directly to the local utility provider for maintenance electricity costs.
Your Texas electricity bill may seem higher than the advertised rate because of base charges, TDU delivery fees, or tricky plans that appear to have cheaper electricity rates than they actually do. Advertised rates are averages and don’t reflect every usage pattern. Checking your effective price per kWh on past bills is the best way to compare plans.
A 12‑month Texas electricity plan locks in your rate for one year, while a 24‑month plan gives you price stability for two years. Longer plans provide rate protection from market swings, while shorter contracts let you switch sooner and avoid any potential early termination fees (ETFs).
In Texas, 24‑month electricity plans can sometimes be cheaper because providers value long‑term customers. Prices depend on the market, so a shorter plan may win if rates are expected to fall—compare current Texas electricity rates before locking in your electricity rate and always be sure to read the electricity facts label (EFL) before signing a contract.
A 36‑month Texas electricity plan offers long‑term rate stability and protection from rising prices. Longer contracts can also come at a cheaper rate because energy suppliers often value long-term relationships. However, the trade‑off is less flexibility, since breaking the contract early usually means paying an early termination fee.
EnergyBot makes it easy to switch. Simply select your new plan, provide us with information about your business, and then upload a copy of your most recent energy bill. The EnergyBot team will seamlessly work with your new supplier to setup your new energy plan contract and make sure your service continues without interruption.
Month‑to‑month electricity plans in Texas are variable‑rate contracts with no long‑term commitment. Your rate can change monthly with the market; they’re flexible but risk higher bills when prices spike. Month-to-month contracts are typically not recommended for residential customers.
Prepaid electricity plans in Texas can be convenient but are usually more expensive per kWh than fixed‑rate contracts. They’re best for short‑term use or customers who struggle to pass credit checks or don't have a credit history; fixed‑rate plans typically offer lower, more stable pricing.
Oncor delivery charges are regulated Texas electricity fees that help pay for power line maintenance, restoration in the event of a power outage, and meter service. They include a fixed monthly fee plus a per-kWh charge. Every electricity plan in Oncor’s service area includes these pass-through charges. Currently Oncor’s delivery charges consist of a fixed monthly customer charge of $4.23 and a per-kilowatt-hour (kWh) usage charge of $0.0529/kWh.
Yes—ending a Texas electricity contract in summer can expose you to higher renewal prices. Plans that expire in spring or fall usually give you access to lower off‑peak electricity rates, ensuring that you're not caught at the peak of the electricity market price surges.
Locking into a long‑term electricity plan in Texas can protect you from rising energy rates as demand increases on the Texas grid, but limits flexibility if rates fall. Early termination fees apply if you break the contract before it ends so it's wise to investigate trends in rates before signing a contract.
When your Texas electricity contract ends you can shop around for a new energy plan. If you don't switch energy providers or start a new contract with your current provider, you may be moved to a month‑to‑month variable rate, which is often more expensive. Shop and switch before your contract expires to avoid higher bills and take advantage of the best energy prices available.
You can switch before your Texas electricity contract ends, but most providers charge an early termination fee. The exception is moving to a new address, where fees are usually waived—check your EFL for exact details. Depending on your current electricity rate it may still be cheaper to switch even with a cancellation fee.
Sometimes Texas 12‑month plans cost more because providers build in long‑term price protection. Shorter plans may offer lower teaser rates but can lead to higher renewal costs later on.
