How to Choose the Right Electricity Provider for Your Business in Texas

When shopping for electricity in Texas, the big print tells you what you'll save, but the small print can take it all away.

?????? Important Considerations for Commercial Customers ??????

Before choosing your next electricity provider, here are nine crucial factors to keep in mind:

1) Contract Types & Rates – Your rate depends on the type of contract you select: Fixed, Fixed with a Variable Component, Variable, or Swing Contracts. Keep in mind that swing contracts are not truly fixed, as exceeding or falling below a set consumption threshold could result in additional charges.

2?) Congestion Charges – These costs arise from delivery spikes. Many providers pass these charges to you, often outside the quoted contract rate. Be sure to ask if these charges are included in your contract.

3?) Eligibility to Switch – You can switch electricity providers as long as you are not in a co-op.

4) Rates Vary by Start Date & Term – When requesting quotes, provide the exact start date and contract term to ensure accurate comparisons. (Please note rates will vary by start date. Rates in spring is cheaper than Summer were demand is higher)

5?) Utility Companies vs. Electricity Providers – In Texas, utility companies (AEP-NORTH, AEP-CENTRAL, ONCOR, CENTERPOINT, and TNMP) own the power infrastructure and charge delivery fees. Your electricity provider will pass these charges through on your bill.

6) Service (Meter) Fees – Some providers charge a per-meter management fee, which can add up for businesses with multiple meters. Always confirm whether these fees apply.

7?) Cancellation Clauses – Contracts vary. If you plan to move or close a location, review the cancellation terms before signing.

8?) Security Deposits – Not all providers require a deposit. If one does, shop around—credit requirements and deposit amounts vary.

9?) Payment Fees – Some providers charge extra for credit card or online payments. Verify payment options to avoid unexpected costs.
