CenterPoint Energy is Texas City’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 Texas City 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 6.0009 cents/kWh.

Types of Texas City electric plans

When shopping for a new plan in Texas City, you’ll come across several different types of energy plans. Here’s a brief overview:

  • Fixed-rate plans: Fixed-rate energy plans are ideal for homeowners interested in long-term stability. These plans have a contract with a set rate, usually lasting between 12 and 36 months, so your rate stays predictable. While you’re under contract, you won’t have to worry about your rate fluctuating with the energy market. However, you’ll likely pay an early termination fee (ETF) if you end your plan early without moving out of the service area.
  • Variable-rate plans: Variable-rate energy plans don’t require a contract, so you can walk away at any time with no penalty. In exchange for this flexibility, your rate may fluctuate from month to month based on the price of energy. If you’re a renter or you move frequently, this type of plan may work for you.
  • No-deposit plans: If you don’t have satisfactory credit, your energy provider may require a deposit. Luckily, some providers offer no-deposit energy plans. Prepaid plans, the most common no-deposit option, allow you to pay for your electricity upfront and skip the credit check and security deposit.
  • 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 Texas City electric rates

Texas electric rates can vary by location due to different utility transmission fees and local taxes. This variation explains why someone in another part of Texas might pay a different rate than you do in Texas City — even for the same plan from the same electric company. For this reason, it’s important to check rates specific to your area using your ZIP code.

Green energy plans

Each electricity plan in Texas includes some amount of renewable energy. You can find the exact percentage in the plan’s Electricity Facts Label (EFL) by searching for your ZIP code on our marketplace, clicking on “More details,” and then selecting the EFL plan document.
