Tips for finding cheap electricity rates in Abilene

In Texas, energy is deregulated. That means providers get clever with how they present rates to customers to try to show the lowest rate. You can shop with free sites like Texas Electric Rates to find the best rates and learn more about offers.

Our shopping tips:

  • Shop for a fixed-rate plan: In most cases, fixed-rate plans are the best option for customers. Fixed-rate plans offer stability because your rate doesn’t change during the contract.
  • Consider switching in late fall: Late fall is usually moderate in Abilene, which can lead to lower electricity rates.
  • Check the plan details: Before signing up, read the plan’s Electricity Facts Label (EFL) to understand the price per kWh, renewable energy percentage, and early termination fees.

Your electricity rate breakdown

Your electricity rate can be broken down into several important bill components. Getting familiar with the details will help you choose from the best electric companies in Abilene. You can also call one of our energy experts today to have a professional walk you through the process with your specific energy habits in mind.

What you need to know:

  • Usage amount: This is how much energy you use, measured in kWh. Plans often have different rates depending on how much your usage is.
  • Rate: Your electricity rate includes a base charge (which remains fixed) and a usage charge (which changes based on usage).
  • Delivery charge: This fee is from the utility company to cover the cost of delivering power to your home.
  • Bill credit: Bill credits are an added perk to many fixed-rate plans. Read a plan’s EFL to determine if it includes one. These credits will be rewarded if you pass a certain threshold of usage each month.
  • Early termination fee: Many providers charge an early cancellation fee for fixed-rate plans.
  • Deposit: If you have a lower credit score, you may be required to pay a deposit before signing up for a plan. To avoid this, consider no-deposit plans with prepaid electricity.
