CenterPoint Energy is Pasadena’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. The utility company for Pasadena is CenterPoint Energy. In the event of a power outage or electrical emergency, call your utility company, not your provider. Here’s how to contact CenterPoint Energy:

CenterPoint Energy charges a transmission and distribution utility (TDU) fee for delivering electricity, which is standard for all Texas utility companies. Your utility delivery charges are twofold: a monthly base charge and a usage charge per kilowatt-hour (kWh). CenterPoint Energy’s charges are $4.90/month and 5.8104 cents/kWh.

Types of Pasadena electric plans

There are plenty of electricity plans available in Pasadena, each designed to fit different homes and budgets. As you compare options from Pasadena electric companies, you’ll likely see a few common plan types:

  • Fixed-rate plans: With a fixed-rate plan, you pay the same rates for the duration of your contract, which can last between 12 and 36 months. These plans are ideal if you want a long-term, stable rate that will protect you from fluctuations in the market. However, you’ll likely be charged an early termination fee (ETF) if you terminate your contract before it expires.
  • Variable-rate plans: With a variable-rate plan, your rate will depend on the wholesale price of energy, which changes from month to month. Because the seasons affect energy prices, you’ll likely pay higher rates in the summer and winter. On the plus side, you are not locked into a contract and can switch to a different plan or provider at any time. This type of plan is ideal for short-term renters or customers seeking the flexibility to switch plans anytime.
  • No-deposit plans: No-deposit electricity plans can be a good option for individuals who prefer not to pay an initial deposit or undergo a credit check. With prepaid plans, a popular type of no-deposit plan, you’ll pay for your electricity upfront and top up your account when the balance 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 Pasadena electric rates

Because Pasadena is part of Texas’s deregulated energy market, electricity rates can vary based on your location and local utility charges. That means your rate in Pasadena may differ from someone’s in another city — even for the same plan. Prices include energy supply, delivery fees, taxes, and other charges.
