Your power to choose electricity in Allen

More than 20 years ago, Texas deregulated its electricity market, allowing providers in Allen and other cities to compete for customers. This setup gives residents the freedom to choose their own provider, rather than relying on the local utility, and provides access to cheaper rates and valuable plan features. By comparing electric rates in Allen, you can find an affordable option that fits your monthly energy needs.

Oncor Electric Delivery is Allen’s utility

While you can choose your electricity provider in a deregulated market, your utility company is determined by your address and cannot be changed. Utilities deliver electricity, maintain power lines, and restore service during power outages. The utility company for Allen is Oncor Electric Delivery. In the event of a power outage or electrical emergency, call your utility company, not your provider. Here’s how to contact Oncor:

All utility companies charge a transmission and distribution utility (TDU) fee for delivering electricity. This includes a base monthly charge and a usage charge per kWh. Oncor Electric Delivery charges $4.23/month and 5.5833 cents/kWh.

Types of Allen electric plans

The first step to finding the best electricity rates in Allen is to compare the available plan types. Each plan is designed for specific usage needs and budgets, so understanding how they work will help you choose the one that best fits your home.

  • Fixed-rate plans: If you choose a fixed-rate plan, your electricity rate will remain the same for the duration of your contract, which typically lasts between 12 and 36 months. This is helpful for predictable billing, but you may have to pay an early termination fee (ETF) if you cancel your plan before your contract ends.
  • Variable-rate plans: These plans fluctuate monthly with the wholesale market, making them riskier than fixed-rate options. You might pay a lower rate during some months and a higher rate during others. The benefit? You can switch Allen energy providers at any time without paying a fee.
  • No-deposit plans: Most Allen electric companies check your credit score when you sign up. If you don’t meet their credit threshold, you may need to put down a security deposit. Prepaid plans and other no-deposit options allow you to pay for your energy in advance and skip the deposit and credit check.
  • Time-of-use plans: A time-of-use (TOU) plan contains rates that fluctuate based on electricity demand. During times of low demand, such as late at night, you can enjoy a decreased rate. However, your rate may increase during peak hours, like mornings and afternoons. This plan could be advantageous if you are comfortable shifting your usage to capture lower rates during off-peak hours.

Understanding Allen electric rates

In Texas, electricity prices vary depending on your location, plan type, and the utility company you use. Transmission and delivery charges vary by area, so the same plan may cost more or less by city. That’s why it’s important to compare rates using your exact ZIP code when shopping for electricity in Allen.

Green energy plans

Texas is a major player in renewable energy, ranking among the country’s top states for both wind and solar energy generation. As a result, Texas residents can easily find affordable green energy plans to power their homes and businesses. Every electricity plan includes a percentage of green energy — a key detail you’ll find on the Electricity Facts Label (EFL).

Some Allen electricity providers also offer 100% green energy plans for customers who want to boost their environmental impact. These companies purchase renewable energy credits (RECs) to offset your energy usage. To learn more, check out plans from Gexa Energy, Green Mountain Energy, and Rhythm Energy.

Whether you need to choose a new electricity plan in Allen or set up service at your new home, Choose Texas Power can help you through each step.

Moving to a new address

If you’re moving to a new home or business location, contact your energy provider ahead of time to find out whether you can transfer your current plan. If your provider doesn’t serve the area, you won’t be charged an ETF, which makes it a good opportunity to shop for cheaper electricity rates in Allen.

Even if you’re not moving, you may want to find a new Allen electricity company to get better features or lower rates. If you’re shopping for a new plan, our marketplace allows you to quickly and easily switch energy providers.
