No.
In deregulated areas, you can choose your electricity provider and plan, rather than being assigned one. This means you can shop for competitive rates and contract terms.
Most major cities in Texas, such as Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio, are in deregulated areas. Contact us, and we’ll confirm your area’s status for you.
If you don’t select a plan in a deregulated area, you may be placed on a default plan with potentially higher rates. Let us help you avoid this and find the right plan.
We analyze your energy usage and recommend plans with the lowest rates, best terms, and incentives for your household. Our goal is to save you money every month.
You can choose from fixed-rate plans (steady pricing), variable-rate plans (fluctuate with the market), and renewable energy plans. We’ll help you decide which works best for you.
