Your power to choose electricity in Laredo

Texas deregulated its energy market back in 2002, giving Laredo residents and businesses the power to choose their electricity plan from various energy providers competing in the market. While energy customers in Texas have more choices than those in traditional regulated states, it can be hard to navigate all the options. Use our free marketplace to compare prices and sort through plans in your area.

Average residential energy rate

The average rate in Laredo is currently 14.85 cents per kilowatt-hour (kWh), based on our most recent marketplace data.

Enter your ZIP code to compare today’s rates and shop around.

AEP Texas is Laredo’s utility

While your chosen energy provider sells you your electricity through an energy plan, your local utility company delivers electricity, maintains electrical infrastructure, and responds to power outages. Utilities are assigned based on location, so you can’t choose which one serves your home. The utility company for Laredo is AEP Texas. Be sure to contact AEP Texas to report a power outage in Laredo. You can use one of the following contact methods:

  • Customer service: Contact online or call 1-877-373-4858
  • Report an outage: Use the online portal or call 866-223-8508

Types of Laredo electric plans

When shopping for a new electricity plan on our marketplace, you’ll come across a variety of options. Some of the most common energy plan types include:

  • Fixed-rate plans: A fixed-rate energy plan locks in your electric rate for the length of your contract, which usually lasts between 12 and 36 months. Every month, you’ll pay the same electricity rate, regardless of fluctuations in the energy market. However, if you cancel or switch your plan before your contract is up, you’ll likely have to pay an early termination fee (ETF).
  • Variable rate plans: Variable-rate plans fluctuate with the energy market. This means you’ll sometimes enjoy cheap electricity rates when demand is low, but you might pay higher rates when the market price increases. Because there’s no contract, you’re free to switch plans or providers at any time without penalty.
  • No-deposit plans: Many electricity plans require an upfront deposit if you have a low credit score. However, some providers offer no-deposit plans, allowing consumers to skip the deposit and credit check altogether. Prepaid plans are a popular type of no-deposit plan, where you pay for your electricity upfront and top up your account when it runs low.

Understanding Laredo electric rates

Electricity rates can vary depending on your location, plan type, term length, and provider. Rates also change based on supply charges, delivery charges, taxes, and fees. The rate you pay in Laredo can differ from the rate someone else pays in another part of Texas, even if you have the same plan.

It’s important to compare prices and plans available in your area. To find the current rates near you, enter your ZIP code on our marketplace today.

Green energy plans

Texas is a national leader in renewable energy production, opening residents up to many options for green energy plans. Every Texas electricity plan comes with a percentage of renewable energy derived from wind power or solar energy. You can find out exactly how much green energy is in a plan by checking its Electricity Facts Label (EFL).

Several companies offer 100% green energy plans in Laredo, including Green Mountain Energy and Gexa Energy. To find these types of plans, enter your ZIP code on our site and filter your results for green energy.

Moving to a new address

If you’re moving to Laredo, you may be able to transfer your current electricity plan. Just reach out to your current provider before your move to find out.

Be sure to give your current provider proof of your move to avoid being charged an ETF.

Switching energy providers
