Odessa electric companies

Since 2002, consumers have been able to choose their own energy providers, and 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 delivers your electricity and maintains 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, and you can’t choose a different utility company. You can contact Oncor in the following ways:

• Call 1-888-313-6862 or email contactcenter@oncor.com for customer service.
• Call 1-888-313-4747 or text OUT to 66267 to report an outage.

Types of Odessa electric plans

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

• Fixed-rate plans: With 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, so you aren’t vulnerable to fluctuations in the energy market. However, you may have to pay an early termination fee (ETF) if you cancel early.
• Variable-rate plans: 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 plans: Many Texas electricity plans require customers to pay a deposit, especially if they have a poor credit score. However, there are some no-deposit electricity plan options for those who 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.
