Oncor Electric Delivery is North Richland Hills’ 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 North Richland Hills 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:

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 North Richland Hills electric plans

North Richland Hills electric companies offer a variety of plan types and features, from fixed-rate options to time-of-use plans. Here’s what you should know about the most common types:

  • Fixed-rate plans: A fixed-rate plan locks in a set rate for the length of your contract, typically 12 to 36 months. Your monthly bill will vary due to transmission fees, taxes, and usage levels, but the base rate will remain the same. If you cancel before your contract ends, you’ll have to pay an early termination fee (ETF). These plans are ideal for homeowners who prefer long-term stability and predictable monthly bills.
  • Variable-rate plans: A variable-rate plan comes with a month-to-month agreement, during which your rate will fluctuate with the wholesale cost of electricity. When energy demand is high, your rate could increase (and vice versa when demand drops). However, you’re free to switch providers or cancel your plan at any time with no penalty. This option can be a good fit for short-term renters or frequent movers.
  • No-deposit plans: Most electricity companies in North Richland Hills will run a credit check when you sign up for a plan and may require an initial deposit based on your score. If you have poor credit or want to skip this extra upfront cost, you can look into no-deposit plans from select providers. Prepaid plans, for example, let you pay for your electricity in advance and refill your account when it runs 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.

Understanding North Richland Hills electric rates

Even though an energy provider might offer the same plan in multiple parts of Texas, the rates will vary by location. That’s because local taxes and utility transmission charges differ throughout the state. To get the most accurate rates, it’s always best to search for rates in your local area when shopping for an energy plan.

Green energy plans

Renewable energy plays a vital role in Texas’ electricity supply, giving North Richland Hills residents more access to cleaner energy options than many other states. Because of the state’s strong wind and solar production, the Texas energy market now includes plenty of renewable options.

If you want to maximize your environmental impact, 100% renewable energy plans are widely available. North Richland Hills electricity companies like Gexa Energy, Green Mountain Energy, Rhythm Energy, and Octopus Energy focus on fully renewable options, making it easier to choose a plan that supports your sustainability goals.
