Average residential energy rate

If you’re considering a new energy plan in League City, keep the following information in mind when shopping on Choose Texas Power:

• The average League City residential electric rate is 15.85 cents per kilowatt-hour (kWh) for 1,000 kWh of usage, according to our marketplace data. This rate is 1.93% higher than the Texas average, and 9.17% lower than the national average.
• Electricity rates are often higher in summer and winter. Since the weather is more extreme in these seasons, more people rely on their heating and cooling systems, resulting in increased electricity demand. When demand goes up, rates generally rise with it.
• Your electricity rate also depends on a few other factors, including your location, the size of your household, and your monthly usage.

Types of League City electric plans

Before you start comparing League City electricity rates and plans, it can help to understand how different plan types work. Here’s a brief overview:

• Fixed-rate plans: These plans offer a stable electricity rate for the length of your contract term, which will generally last 12 to 36 months. A fixed-rate plan can make your energy costs more predictable, but if you leave the provider before your contract is up, you’ll pay an early termination fee (ETF). If you’re looking for long-term stability, this may be the right type of plan for you.
• Variable-rate plans: Your rate is tied to wholesale energy costs, so it can change each month. When electricity demand is low, you’ll get a cheaper rate — but the opposite is true if demand increases. On the plus side, there are no contracts or ETFs, so you have the flexibility to change or cancel your plan at any time. You might consider this type of plan if you’re a short-term renter or you move frequently.
• No-deposit plans: It’s common for energy providers to run a credit check when you’re signing up for a plan. If your credit score doesn’t meet their threshold, you’ll need to put down a deposit. But with a no-deposit plan, there’s no need for a credit check or deposit. With a prepaid plan, for example, you’ll skip the deposit and pay upfront for your electricity usage, refilling your account as needed.

Moving to a new address

If you’re planning a move to League City, contact your current electricity provider to discuss transferring your service. Ideally, you should do this at least a couple of weeks before your move (but some companies offer same-day electricity connections). If the provider doesn’t serve your new address, you can use Choose Texas Power using your new ZIP code to compare plans from energy companies in League City.

Switching energy providers

Thanks to deregulation, you can also switch providers if you’re unhappy with your current plan or want to secure a cheaper rate. To explore your options, type in your ZIP code on this page. However, if you currently have a fixed-rate plan, you should expect your provider to charge an ETF if you cancel before the contract ends.
