Find electricity plans for your Texas business. Compare supplier prices, contract terms and start dates, with expert guidance when you need it.
Start with your service address, recent electricity usage and the date your next agreement should begin. Your location determines whether you can choose a retail electricity supplier and which delivery utility serves your meter.
Compare offers on the same basis before choosing a plan:
A fixed supplier rate does not make the total monthly bill fixed. Your consumption and other applicable charges still affect your costs.
For rate benchmarks and a fuller explanation of bill components, read our Texas commercial electricity rates guide. To see available offers for your location, compare business electricity plans.
Many Texas business locations can choose a retail electricity supplier, including locations in Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth and Corpus Christi.
A city name alone does not confirm eligibility: utility territories and municipal or cooperative service areas can overlap city boundaries. The list below is a location guide; confirm retail choice for your exact service address.
While many parts of Texas are deregulated, several areas are not. This is because deregulation was mandatory for investor-owned utilities and remained optional for some municipal utilities and electric cooperatives. Some of those organizations have not opted to participate.
The list below identifies some of the larger cities in Texas that remain regulated.
When comparing Texas business electricity, distinguish the company supplying your electricity from the utility delivering it.
Your service address determines the delivery utility. Choosing a different retail supplier does not change that utility.
See Oncor’s explanation of retail providers and delivery utilities for more detail.
5 Digital Energy shows offers from participating suppliers serving eligible business locations. Available suppliers and plans depend on your location and requirements. Compare the offers shown for your business rather than assuming every supplier or plan type is available.
For a Texas business, the quoted energy price is only one part of the comparison. Review the supply price, utility delivery charges, usage assumptions, contract length and start date together.
In a retail-choice area, your supplier sells electricity under your agreement and your delivery utility serves the meter. In an area served by a municipal utility or electric cooperative without retail choice, contact that utility about the options for your location.
5 Digital Energy helps eligible commercial customers compare participating supplier offers and understand their contract options. For questions about your location or agreement, contact our team.
The right plan depends on your business’s usage, location, contract start date and tolerance for price changes. Compare the total pricing structure and renewal date, rather than choosing from the headline rate alone.
Our energy team can explain the available offers and help with custom pricing for more complex needs. Meet your support team or browse plans for your business.
Start with the end date and renewal conditions in your current agreement. Check any notice requirements and early termination terms before selecting a new supplier or contract start date.
You may renew with your current supplier or choose a different participating supplier. Compare both on the same basis. Changing your retail supplier does not change the delivery utility serving your meter.
Before signing, confirm the price components, agreement length, start date and supplier requirements. Our team can help you understand the next steps.
Supplier offers can change with market conditions. Compare the price available for your intended start date alongside the contract term and your next renewal date.
A longer price lock and a shorter commitment involve different tradeoffs. Future market prices are unknown, and no contract term guarantees savings. Choose a term that fits your plans for the business location.
Review each offer’s pricing structure and the charges it includes. Availability depends on your location, usage and supplier requirements.
For a detailed explanation of charges and benchmarks, read our Texas commercial electricity rates guide.
Before signing, read the agreement’s early termination provisions. The charge, calculation and any exceptions depend on the specific supplier contract.
If you may move, close a location or change your operations during the term, ask how those events are treated. Do not assume a residential cancellation rule or a generic fee example applies to a commercial agreement.
Use your current agreement and business location to prepare for a renewal or a new service start. These steps help you compare offers and understand enrollment.
Enter your business ZIP code and intended contract start month to see participating supplier offers. Keep your service address, a recent bill and your current contract end date available for any follow-up.
Review the price components, contract length, renewal timing and early termination provisions. Ask our energy team about any terms you do not understand before you choose an offer.
Choose an offer and sign the agreement to begin enrollment. We initiate the process with the supplier, which may request more information or approval. Signing does not by itself confirm that service has started; confirm the effective date and enrollment status.
Browse participating supplier offers for your location and start date, or ask our energy team about your contract needs.
Start with the decision your business needs to make, then compare the offers available for the right location and timing.
Match the proposed start date to your current obligations. Review the next renewal date and any notice requirements before signing.
Confirm the exact service address and when you need electricity. Ask what information or approval the supplier needs to begin enrollment.
Prepare each meter’s usage, utility and contract end date. Request custom pricing when your requirements need a closer review.
Eligibility depends on the utility serving the exact address. Confirm retail choice for your location before comparing offers; a city name alone does not establish whether supplier choice is available.
Have your exact service address, a recent electricity bill, available usage history and the date your next agreement should begin. For a renewal, keep your current contract and its notice requirements available.
No. Check which price component is fixed in the agreement. Your electricity use, separately billed utility delivery charges, taxes and other applicable items can still change the total bill.
You can explore available offers for your intended start month. Check your existing agreement’s end date, notice requirements and early termination provisions before choosing a new date or signing.
Ask for help when you manage several meters or locations, have higher usage, are opening or moving a business, or need to understand contract conditions. Bring available usage information and the timing of each location’s next agreement.
Signing begins supplier enrollment. The supplier may request additional information or approval. Confirm enrollment status and the effective service date; a signature alone is not confirmation that service has started.
