Odessa electric companies

In 2002, Texas lawmakers deregulated the state’s energy market. Since then, consumers have been able to choose their own energy providers. Odessa residents have plenty of quality electricity providers to choose from. Some of the most popular options include TXU Energy, TriEagle Energy, Gexa Energy, and Frontier Energy.

The energy provider you choose will supply the electricity that’s delivered to your home, but your local electric utility will deliver your electricity and install and maintain the energy infrastructure. If you experience a power outage or another problem with your electricity service, contact your utility company.

The utility for the Odessa area is Oncor Electric Delivery. You can contact Oncor in the following ways:

• Call 888-313-6862 for customer service.
• Call 888-313-4747 to report an outage.
• Email contactcenter@oncor.com.

Types of Odessa electric plans

When you compare electric rates in Odessa, you’ll have plenty of options to choose from. Here are common types of plans:

• Fixed-rate plan: When you sign up for a fixed-rate plan, you sign a contract and secure a specific rate, typically for 12 to 36 months. During that time, your electricity rate won’t change. As a result, you aren’t vulnerable to fluctuations in the energy market. Fixed-rate plans provide stability and security throughout your contract. However, you may have to pay an early termination fee (ETF) if you cancel early.
• Variable-rate plan: With a variable-rate plan, you don’t lock in a particular rate. Instead, the rate you pay for electricity changes each month depending on the current market rate. As a result, your rate could fluctuate significantly from one month to the next. On the plus side, you can switch plans at any time with no penalty.
• No-deposit plan: Many Texas electricity plans require customers to pay a deposit, especially if they have a poor credit score. There are some no-deposit plans to choose from if you want to avoid the credit check and deposit. Prepaid plans, which allow you to pay for electricity in advance, are the most common type of no-deposit plan.

Electricity rates can vary across the state based on where you live and which utility services your area. A part of this variation is due to the different transmission fees charged by utilities. As a result, the rate someone else pays in another part of Texas could be different than what you’ll pay in Odessa. For that reason, it’s important to get a quote for your specific area.
