Variable-rate electricity plans in Texas
A variable-rate plan has no fixed term, and the provider can change the price from month to month. It usually has no cancellation fee, which helps if you need flexibility, but your bills can rise without much notice. Many expired fixed contracts roll onto a variable rate.

Common questions
Fixed rate or variable rate: which is better?
A fixed-rate plan keeps your energy rate the same for the full contract term, which makes bills predictable. A variable-rate plan can change monthly at the provider's discretion. Most households looking for stable bills choose a fixed-rate plan of 12 months or longer.
How do I switch electricity providers in Texas?
Enter your ZIP code on TXPowerRates, compare plans by estimated monthly cost at your usage, read the plan's Electricity Facts Label (EFL), and enroll with the new retail electric provider. The new provider handles the switch with your utility. You do not need to call your old provider, and your power is not interrupted.
