Types of electricity plans for Waxahachie residents

 Waxahachie residents typically choose from among three types of electricity plans.

• Fixed rate: Your rates won’t change throughout the term of your plan. Most common term lengths are 12, 24, or 36 months. While the rates charged for electricity usage stay the same, government taxes and other fees may change.
• Variable rate: Your rate can fluctuate from month-to-month throughout the term. The price is tied to the wholesale price of electricity. In addition to changes in the season, it can vary due to other factors.
• No deposit: Providers use your credit score to determine whether to charge you a deposit. If you don’t want to or can’t pay a deposit, you can enroll in a prepaid plan, where you pay upfront each month for your expected electrical usage.

Waxahachie electric rates in my area

When searching for the best electricity rates near me, it’s important to understand a few things. The rate you’re charged for your electricity can vary by what part of the state you live in and the utility company that serves your area. For example, portions of Texas, including Austin and San Antonio, are not deregulated. Those residents do not have the power to choose their electrical provider.

 In addition to the amount you’re charged for your electrical supply, your bill includes transmission and delivery charges, taxes and other fees. Since the transmission and delivery charges are generated by the utility company, they can vary by the region of the state you live in. The only part of your bill you can shop for is your electrical rate.
