Hewitt Electricity Rates and Companies

Our recommended Hewitt energy plans

The best electricity plans in Hewitt for most residents are usually fixed-rate plans, which keep your energy rate stable throughout your contract. Many popular plans also include bill credits that can significantly lower your effective electricity rate when your monthly usage falls within the plan’s intended range. Understanding your typical electricity usage can help you identify plans that offer the strongest savings opportunities.

Below are a few popular, well-trusted Hewitt electricity plans to consider:

Best overall: Rhythm Max Saver 12

Rhythm Max Saver 12 is a strong option for many Hewitt residents. The plan offers a $125 bill credit each month when usage reaches 1,000 kWh or more, creating an opportunity for significant savings. For households that regularly use around 1,000 kWh or more, the credit can help lower overall electricity costs and deliver a competitive effective rate. Rhythm’s renewable energy offerings and customer-friendly experience further enhance the plan’s appeal for many shoppers.

Best for high usage: Frontier Saver Deluxe 12

Frontier Saver Deluxe 12 may be a good fit for higher-usage households. The plan offers a $100 usage credit when you use at least 1,500 kWh in a billing cycle. While some high-usage plans require 2,000 kWh or more to earn the bill credit, many higher-usage residents do not consistently meet that threshold every month. A 1,500 kWh requirement may provide a more realistic opportunity to qualify for savings.

Best for low usage: APG&E Simple Choice 12

APG&E Simple Choice 12 is a solid choice for customers with lower or less predictable electricity usage. Many low-usage residents see the most month-to-month variation in their electricity use, which can make bill-credit plans risky. Because this plan does not rely on usage minimums or bill credits, your bill is less likely to jump simply because you missed a specific usage threshold.

The best electricity plan for you will depend on your preferred contract length, typical monthly kWh usage and whether you can consistently qualify for any bill credits. We recommend using our rate finder tool to compare plans and match with the best option for your home.

Your power to choose electricity in Hewitt

Like most of Texas, Hewitt has a deregulated energy market, which gives residents the power to choose their electricity provider and plan from a variety of options. In regulated markets, customers can only buy electricity from the local utility company. Deregulation encourages competition between providers, who offer cheap electric rates and better plan terms to gain your business. You can use the free Choose Texas Power marketplace to compare Hewitt electricity rates and sign up for the energy plan that best fits your needs.

Oncor Electric Delivery is Hewitt’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 Hewitt 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.
• Visit Oncor’s online outage portal.

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 Hewitt electric plans

While shopping for an energy plan, you may notice a few different plan types. Some of the most popular types of electricity plans include:

• Fixed-rate plans: Your energy rate will remain the same while you’re under contract. Most contract terms last between 12 and 36 months, although some providers offer shorter options. Fixed-rate plans offer the most stability and protect you from fluctuations in the energy market. If you need to cancel or switch plans before your contract term ends, you may be charged an early termination fee (ETF). If you want long-term stability, a fixed-rate plan may be the right choice.
• Variable-rate plans: Your energy rate can change from month to month, and the price you pay will depend on the wholesale cost of electricity. When energy demand is low, your rate could drop. However, your rate could increase if demand goes up. Variable-rate plans are riskier, but they don’t require a contract, so you can switch plans at any time without penalty. If you’re interested in more flexibility, you might consider a variable-rate plan.
• No-deposit plans: Most energy providers require a deposit for customers with lower credit scores. If you’d prefer to skip a deposit, you can consider no-deposit options. The most popular no-deposit option is prepaid plans, which let you pay for your energy upfront and add funds to your account if it begins to 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.
