Tips for finding cheap electricity rates in Carrollton
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 Carrollton, 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.
