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 Galveston is CenterPoint Energy. In the event of a power outage or electrical emergency, call your utility company, not your provider. Here’s how to contact CenterPoint Energy:
CenterPoint Energy charges a transmission and distribution utility (TDU) fee for delivering electricity, which is standard for all Texas utility companies. Utility delivery charges include a monthly base fee and a usage charge per kilowatt-hour (kWh). CenterPoint Energy’s charges are $4.90/month and 4.9993 ¢/kWh to deliver Galveston utilities.

Electricity rates vary by location and by the utility that delivers power.
