Your power to choose electricity in Katy

In 2002, Texas regulators voted to deregulate the Lone Star State’s energy market. In traditional energy markets, residents and business owners are required to purchase their energy from their local utility company. In deregulated energy markets like Katy, however, you have the power to choose your energy provider.

Katy utility companies

Although you can choose your electricity provider, your utility company is assigned to you based on your location. Utilities are responsible for delivering power to your property, maintaining the local power grid, and responding to service outages. The utility company for Katy is CenterPoint Energy, regardless of which Katy energy provider you choose. In the event of a power outage, you should reach out to CenterPoint Energy, not your electricity provider. You can report an outage using its outage portal or by calling 713-207-2222.

Types of Katy electric plans

When shopping for an electricity plan on the Choose Texas Power marketplace, you’ll encounter several different types of plans available. 

  • Fixed-rate plans: These plans offer the same energy rate throughout your contract, and you won’t have to worry about electricity cost spikes during the plan term. You have the option of picking contracts that range from 12 to 36 months. If you cancel your contract before it expires, you may need to pay an early termination fee (ETF). 
  • Variable-rate plans: With this type of plan, your electricity rate changes as market prices fluctuate. You may save money in some months, whereas costs may be higher in others. Variable-rate power plans don’t have a contract. As a result, you don’t have to pay an ETF to switch energy plans.
  • No-deposit plans: Energy providers often run a credit check when you request service. If your credit score is below the threshold, you’ll likely have to pay a deposit before your service starts. No-deposit plans, such as a prepaid plan, allow you to avoid the upfront deposit.

Understanding Katy electric rates

Electricity rates vary by location, even for the same energy plan. When you read your energy bill, you’ll notice a transmission fee from your utility. This fee is based on where you live. You can have the same plan as someone else in a different part of Texas but pay a different total rate.

That’s why it’s important to browse electricity rates in your area. With Choose Texas Power, it’s easy to compare electricity rates in Katy, TX. Simply enter your ZIP code on this page.
