Oncor Electric Delivery: Duncanville’s utility company

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. Duncanville’s utility company 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:

• Call 1-888-313-4747
• Text “OUT” to 66267
• Report an outage online

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 Duncanville electric plans

While shopping for an energy plan, you’ll likely find a few different plan types to choose from. Each plan has unique features, so it’s helpful to know which one best suits your needs.

• Fixed-rate: You pay the same rate for electricity throughout your contract, which usually lasts 12 to 36 months. Your bill will fluctuate based on your usage, taxes, and utility charges, but your base rate remains stable. However, you’ll have to pay an early termination fee (ETF) if you cancel your plan before the contract ends. Need long-term stability and predictability? A fixed-rate plan might be your best choice.
• Variable-rate: Your rate changes depending on wholesale energy costs. The benefit is that you can change plans anytime without incurring an ETF, making these plans ideal for short-term renters or customers who move frequently and need flexibility.
• No-deposit: Providers typically run credit checks to determine whether customers must pay a deposit to begin service. An alternative to paying a deposit is a prepaid plan, where you pay in advance for the electricity you expect to use in a month. You’ll get bill alerts when you need to replenish your balance.
• 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.
