Waco Electricity Providers: Discover Your Options

Waco is home to the oldest college in the state, Baylor University, where more than 15,000 students seek a higher education each year. Waco is also the birthplace of Dr Pepper, the carbonated drink that is enjoyed by many around the world. The drink is so beloved, every year tourists flock to the city to tour the Dr Pepper Museum and learn the history of the soft drink.

Waco is also situated between two major Texas cities – Dallas and Austin. This may seem like reason enough to live here, but residents also have the opportunity to shop electric rates in Waco. These consumers don't have to settle for the rates provided by a city utility or a rural cooperative – instead they can compare energy rates and plans to find the one that best fits their needs.

Keep your utility, switch your supplier

Customers should know that when they switch Waco electricity providers, they don't switch utilities. No matter what, Oncor will deliver Waco electricity to their home through the power lines that run through their neighborhood. Most providers include the Oncor delivery charge in their Waco electricity rates or in their monthly bills.

Learn how to compare energy rates in Waco

When it comes time to make a choice on your electric rates in Waco, it's important that you understand your options. Because the energy market is competitive, Waco electricity providers offer a wide range of incentives to gain your business. This might make it confusing to sift through them all to find the plan for you.

Competitive electricity rates are often the first thing many people look for when they compare energy rates. However, the type of supply plan you choose can have a much larger impact on your monthly expenses than the rates you're offered by energy providers. For example, in a variable-rate supply plan the rate you sign up for at the beginning of your contract is not the rate you will pay throughout. Instead, it changes monthly – going up and down with the wholesale market's electricity rates.

On the other hand, a fixed-rate supply plan may seem more expensive at first glance, but the rate will stay the same throughout your entire contract. In other words, you will have price security, because you're not at risk of high market spikes.
