Oncor Electric Delivery: Georgetown’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 Georgetown 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 5.6032 cents/kWh.

Types of Georgetown electric plans

Before you start exploring Georgetown electricity rates, it helps to understand the differences between popular types of plans. Here are some of the most common options:

• Fixed-rate plans: These plans usually have 12-, 24-, or 36-month contracts. During that time, your electricity rate will remain the same, which is ideal if you value more long-term predictable energy costs. One downside of fixed-rate plans is that they typically have early termination fees (ETFs) if you end your plan before the contract is up.
• Variable-rate plans: You won’t get a fixed rate or contract with a variable-rate plan. Instead, your energy rate is linked to the wholesale cost of electricity. This means that you’ll pay more when market prices increase, but you can also save money when prices drop. Plus, you can switch providers whenever you’d like — with no ETF. Variable-rate plans are the more flexible option, so they may be a good choice for short-term renters or customers who move frequently.
• No-deposit plans: It’s common for Georgetown electricity providers to charge a deposit on their energy plans. If you’d rather not put down any money upfront, you can opt for a no-deposit plan. For example, with a prepaid plan, you’ll load money into your account to pay for your energy usage in advance. Then, you can replenish the funds as they run low.
• 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 Georgetown electric rates

When shopping for energy plans, you should always factor in your location to get the most accurate pricing. This is important because rates vary across the state due to factors like utility transmission fees and local taxes. As a result, you may pay a different rate than a friend in another location, even if you have the same plan.
