Energy Providers And Utility Companies In The Woodlands

Thanks to Texas’s deregulated energy market, residents of The Woodlands can choose their energy providers. Your energy provider is the company that provides the electricity that powers your home. While you can choose your own provider, you can’t choose your utility company — it’s based on where you live. Your utility company delivers your electricity and maintains the local electric infrastructure.

• In The Woodlands, your utility is CenterPoint Energy. Contact CenterPoint if there is ever a power outage in your area.
• The Woodlands electricity providers include trusted companies like Cirro Energy, Direct Energy, and TXU Energy.

When you’re shopping around for electricity, it’s important to look at rates in your area. Due to different utility transmission rates, electricity prices can vary by location.

The SaveOnEnergy marketplace makes it easy to explore the most accurate energy rates near you. Enter your ZIP code above to get started.

How weather affects The Woodlands electricity rates

The local weather can have a huge impact on electricity rates. In Texas, temperatures tend to average around 95 degrees in the summer, causing energy demand to surge. As a result, energy rates also tend to spike during this time. However, energy rates tend to fall during other parts of the year when temperatures are milder and demand is lower. 

You can save money on electricity by shopping during those low-demand seasons. Usually, the most affordable seasons to shop for electricity are the fall and spring.

SaveOnEnergy’s Tips For Easy Electricity Service Setup

• Don’t forget to read your plan’s Electricity Facts Label before signing up. It contains important information including:
  • Price per kilowatt-hour based on usage
  • % renewable energy sourcing
  • Early termination fees
• Enjoy hassle-free supplier setup. Once your order has been confirmed, your new supplier will set up service with your utility, or transmission and distribution service provider (TDSP) – but don’t worry, there shouldn’t be any interruption to your power during the switch.
• Understanding your electricity bill. Your local TDSP will still deliver your electricity and maintain electric infrastructure including meters and power lines. Your utility fees can be found as TDU or TDSP charges on your monthly bill. They are independent of your supplier rate.

Types Of Plans In The Woodlands

When you sign up for your new energy plan, you can choose from several different types of plans. Understanding the different types can help you choose the right plan. You can also call the number on your screen to speak with an energy expert and learn more about the different plans available.

Fixed-rate plans in The Woodlands 

A fixed-rate energy plan allows you to lock in your rate for a contract of 12 to 36 months. During this time, your energy rate won’t fluctuate with the market. Instead, you’ll pay the rate in your contract. However, if you need to end your plan early, you might have to pay an early termination fee (ETF).

Variable-rate plans in The Woodlands 

Unlike a fixed-rate plan, a variable-rate energy plan doesn’t have a contract and it doesn’t allow you to lock in your rate. Instead, your rate each month is based on the current energy market. You’ll save money in some months. During other times, your rate can spike. Common types of variable-rate plans include no-deposit and prepaid plans.
