The Woodlands electric companies

Since 2002, the state of Texas has had a deregulated energy market, giving you the ability to choose your own REP. You can now compare The Woodlands electricity providers to find the best electricity rates.

The Woodlands is served by a number of REPs. Among The Woodlands electricity providers are TXU Energy, TriEagle Energy, and 4Change Energy. To compare electric rates in The Woodlands, you’ll also want to look at terms and contract length.

The city is served by two utility companies — Entergy and CenterPoint Energy. Entergy is regulated by the Public Utility Commission of Texas and residents served by this utility cannot choose their REP. However, CenterPoint Energy is part of the deregulated electricity market and people served by CenterPoint can select their provider.

Both utilities deliver electricity to your home, maintain the power lines and restore outages. Entergy customers can report an outage by calling 800-968-8243, texting “OUT” to 36778 or on the company’s website. CenterPoint Energy customers can call 800-332-7143 or 713-207-2222 to report an outage or use the company’s website.

Types of plans

One of the early decisions to make when shopping for a retail electricity provider is choosing the type of plan you’d like. Some typical choices:

Fixed rates: With a fixed-rate plan, the energy supply rates you’re charged per kilowatt hour (kWh) remain the same throughout the length of your contract. This makes it easier for you to budget your monthly expenses.
Variable rates: With a variable-rate plan, your rate can change throughout the term of your contract. It’s based on market conditions and could change monthly. These plans are more of a gamble for customers.
No deposit: These are pre-paid plans that don’t need a deposit or a credit check. You fund your account in advance and put more money in as needed.

But you can go even further by choosing a plan that offers a higher percentage of green energy. Some providers offer only 100 percent green energy plans. For The Woodlands, these providers include Green Mountain Energy, Gexa Energy and Iberdrola Texas.
