Nacogdoches Electricity Rates and Companies

Our recommended Nacogdoches energy plans

The best electricity plans in Nacogdoches 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 Nacogdoches electricity plans to consider:

Best overall: Rhythm Max Saver 12

Rhythm Max Saver 12 is a strong option for many Nacogdoches 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.

Oncor Electric Delivery is Nacogdoches’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. Dallas’ utility company 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 Nacogdoches electric plans

Our marketplace features a variety of electricity plans in Nacogdoches, including fixed-rate and variable-rate options. Here’s a quick overview of some of the most popular types of plans:

• Fixed-rate plans: When you sign up for a fixed-rate plan, you’ll lock in your electricity rate for a set period (usually 12 to 36 months). Since your rate is fixed, it’s easier to budget for your monthly electric bills. However, if you cancel before your contract is up, your provider may charge an early termination fee (ETF).
• Variable-rate plans: If you choose a variable-rate plan, you won’t get a stable rate or contract. Instead, your rate is tied to wholesale energy costs, so it may change from month to month. Your bills won’t be as predictable as they would with a fixed-rate plan, but on the plus side, there are no ETFs if you cancel or switch providers. Explore our fixed- vs. variable-rate guide to learn more.
• No-deposit plans: Most Nacogdoches electricity providers will check your credit history before starting service. If your score falls below their requirements, you’ll need to pay a deposit on your plan. However, if you sign up for a no-deposit plan, you can avoid the credit check and deposit. For example, Payless Power offers prepaid plans (a common type of no-deposit plan) that let you pay for electricity before you use it and top up as needed.
• 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.

Green energy plans

Texas has invested heavily in renewable energy — and today, it’s the country’s leading producer of electricity from wind. It also ranks within the top five states for solar energy generation. Because of this, electric consumers in Nacogdoches (and the rest of Texas) can choose from many different renewable energy plans.

When you buy an electricity plan in Texas, it will always contain at least a small portion of renewable energy. Some plans have a small percentage, while others are 100% green. You’ll find your plan’s renewable energy content on its Electricity Facts Label (EFL).

If going green is important to you, consider signing up for one of the many 100% renewable electricity plans in Nacogdoches. These plans are available from several providers on our marketplace, but Gexa Energy, Green Mountain Energy, and Rhythm Energy are some of the most popular. To find them, enter your ZIP code on this page and filter the results for “green energy.”
