Frequently asked questions

Do I have to choose an electricity company after moving to Texas?

In most of Texas, yes — the state deregulated retail electricity, so you pick your own provider instead of being assigned one. The two big exceptions are Austin (served by the municipal utility Austin Energy) and San Antonio (served by the municipal utility CPS Energy), where there's no retail choice at all, so this tool won't apply if that's exactly where you're moving.

How much can I actually save by switching electricity plans?

We won't quote you one generic average — it depends too much on your real usage and your current plan's actual rate to be honest. Instead we compare your specific ZIP code and usage against real, current pricing from all 45 providers we track and show you the real dollar difference for your situation, not a marketing number.

Will my power get shut off while I switch providers?

No. The same delivery utility keeps the physical wires energized and handles any outages no matter which retail provider bills you — switching providers only changes who you pay for the electricity itself, not who keeps your power running.

Is this tool really free, and do providers pay to be ranked higher?

Yes, it's free, and no — we don't accept payment from any provider in exchange for placement or a better recommendation. Every result comes from the same real plan data, regardless of who's selling the plan.

What if I don't know my usage yet because I just moved in?

Use the quick home profile option instead of uploading a bill — tell us your home type, square footage, floor level, HVAC, and comfort preference, and we'll estimate your usage from that. You can always come back and refine it once you have a real bill.
