Frisco Electricity Rates and Companies

Our recommended Frisco energy plans

Fixed-rate plans are usually the best electricity plans in Frisco for most residents. This plan type provides a stable energy rate throughout your contract. Many popular fixed-rate plans include bill credits, which can significantly lower your electricity bill when your monthly usage surpasses the plan’s threshold. Understanding your typical electricity usage will help you identify plans with the best savings opportunities and predictable bills.

Here are a few popular, trusted Frisco electricity plans to consider:

Most popular plan: Express Flash Value 12

The Express Flash Value 12 is a solid, affordable option for many Frisco residents. The plan includes a $125 bill credit each month you use at least 1,000 kWh — allowing you to save a significant chunk on your bill. For households that regularly surpass 1,000 kWh, the Flash Value 12 plan can help lower your overall energy costs and lock in a competitive rate. Express Energy also offers a solid 60-day satisfaction guarantee if the plan is not a good fit.

Best for large homes: TXU Smart Saver 1,000 12

Higher-usage households can reap the benefits of TXU Energy’s Smart Saver 1,000 12 plan this summer. Lock in a steady electric rate for one year, and benefit from a $100 bill credit each month you use over 1,000 kWh. You’ll also receive an additional $25 monthly bill credit all summer long for hitting this usage level. Enroll with TXU and enjoy top-rated customer service as summer prices peak.

Best for small homes: Gexa Eco Saver Lite 12

For customers with smaller homes or lower usage in general, Gexa Energy’s Eco Saver Lite 12 plan is a solid choice. Benefit from a $50 bill credit each month you use more than 500 kWh. With a lower bill credit threshold than most fixed-rate plans, the Eco Saver Lite lets you secure predictable, affordable bills during the volatile summer market. It’s also 100% renewable, helping you reduce your carbon footprint while keeping your bills low.

The best electricity plan for your home will depend on your preferred contract length, typical monthly kWh usage, and whether you consistently qualify for any bill credits.

Your power to choose electricity in Frisco

Frisco is part of Texas’ deregulated energy market, which means you can select your electricity provider if you live or run a business here. Electric choice gives you much more flexibility than a traditional energy market, where you have to buy power from your area’s utility company. To explore affordable electricity plans in Frisco, enter your ZIP code on this page.

Choose Texas Power is not affiliated with Power to Choose, powertochoose.org, or the PUCT.

Oncor Electric Delivery: Frisco’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. The utility company for Frisco 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 5.6183 ¢/kWh.

Types of Frisco electric plans

As you explore Choose Texas Power’s marketplace, you’ll find multiple types of electricity plans in Frisco, including fixed-rate and variable-rate options. Here’s an overview of the most popular types.

• Fixed-rate plans: With this plan type, you can secure a set electricity rate for the entirety of your contract, which usually lasts anywhere from 12 to 36 months. As a result, your energy costs will be more predictable. The one catch is that if you want to cancel your plan early, you’ll likely have to pay an early termination fee (ETF).
• Variable-rate plans: Structured as month-to-month agreements, variable-rate plans don’t come with contracts, ETFs, or fixed rates. With this kind of plan, your rate will follow the market price of electricity. There’s less predictability with variable-rate plans, but on the plus side, you can cancel whenever you’d like (without paying an ETF).
• No-deposit plans: If your credit score doesn’t measure up to a provider’s standards, you’ll typically need to pay a deposit on your plan. However, there are ways to avoid a deposit even if you have less-than-perfect credit. One option is signing up for a no-deposit plan (such as a prepaid plan), which doesn’t require a credit check or upfront deposit. Instead, you’ll pay for electricity in advance and top up your account as needed.
• 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.

Green energy plans

Texas is a large producer of renewable energy, generating the most wind power of any state in the U.S. It’s also currently the second-largest producer of solar energy. This makes it easier for Frisco residents to make eco-conscious shopping decisions with a variety of green energy options.

When you sign up for an energy plan in Texas, it will contain at least a small percentage of renewable energy. To discover how much green energy is in your plan, check the Electricity Facts Label (EFL).

You can also buy a 100% green plan from providers on our marketplace, like Gexa Energy and Green Mountain Energy. Both companies exclusively sell renewable plans. To find renewable energy rates from these electricity companies (and others), enter your ZIP code on this page and filter for “green energy.”
