However, this website fails to consider the track record or customer feedback of the providers.
At LightningBugPower.com, we provide an unaffiliated marketplace that offers expert guidance and allows you to filter plans based on your priorities. Our marketplace features a variety of options from reliable providers, and our team assists you in finding the ideal electricity plan for your home or business. Additionally, our sign-up process is quick and easy, making it simple to switch plans.Â

Texas Power to Choose
Deregulation has transformed Texas’ energy landscape, giving you the power to choose your electricity provider and potentially save on your bill. Before deregulation, a single utility company held a monopoly, controlling prices and limiting options.
Now, you have a variety of providers to compare, offering different plans and rates. While the local utility company still manages the delivery and infrastructure, you get to decide who supplies your power.
Make an Informed Choice
To find the best electricity plan for your needs, review the Electricity Facts Label (EFL) for each option. Pay attention to details like early termination fees (ETFs), which are waived if you move.

Seasonal electricity rates
Electricity rates are subject to fluctuation throughout the year due to various factors, including weather conditions and distribution systems. Severe weather events such as winter storms in Texas can often result in higher rates. When the demand for electricity generation increases, the cost of electricity also goes up. However, demand is typically lower during the winter and spring seasons, resulting in lower electricity rates compared to the summer months.
Take advantage of lower energy rates during winter to save on your energy bills. Enter your ZIP code or browse Texas electricity rates to lock in the best price while rates are low.
Compare winter electricity rates in Texas with the help of the tables below, which display the average price of residential electricity in Texas during January, based on data from the Energy Information Administration (EIA).
