Energy providers and utility companies in The Woodlands

Thanks to Texas’s deregulated energy market, residents of The Woodlands can choose their energy provider. Your energy provider is the company that manages 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.

Electricity rates in my area

Texas energy prices vary based on your home or business. It is due to the utility delivery fee assessed for energy. With this in mind, you can share the same plan as another Texan, but your prices differ. The wisest way to ensure you receive accurate electricity rates in my area is to enter your ZIP code on our marketplace. Doing so helps you find the best electric company near me. 

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.

Fixed-rate plans in The Woodlands

A fixed-rate energy plan means you pay the same electric price during your service contract, typically one to three years. While your rate is locked in, your total bill will fluctuate based on energy consumption. You may also incur an early termination fee if you end your contract early. 

Variable-rate plans in The Woodlands

Variable-rate plans are more volatile in costs, as the weather, energy demand, and other factors play roles. You also don’t have a contract, giving you the freedom to switch plans. SaveOnEnergy does not offer plans with variable rates that change daily. 

No-deposit plans

Some suppliers do a credit check as part of the screening process. Bypass this with a no-deposit plan. With it, you don’t have to worry about a credit check and you can pay for electricity upfront. 

Green electricity in The Woodlands

As a leader in wind and solar energy production, Texas offers renewable energy in every plan. Read your plan’s Electricity Facts Label (EFL) to see the percentage of renewable energy it includes. Some providers, including Gexa Energy and Green Mountain Energy, offer 100% green energy options.

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.
