🔌Pro Tip: The cheapest electricity rate in the market is typically a bill credit plan. These plans are designed to show a low price at the specific usage of 1000 kWh. Make sure to read the detailed summary on each plan to ensure it fits with your monthly electricity usage. If your usage varies each month, you may be better off with a basic fixed rate electricity plan.
Types of Electricity Plans in Lubbock
There are two main types of electricity plans in Lubbock:
- Variable rate plans: Your price per kWh of power will change every month. However, you won’t have a contract, so you can switch plans or lock in your rate at any time.
- Fixed rate plans: You’ll pay the same price per kWh of power for the term of your contract. You’ll have an early termination fee if you cancel before the end of your contract, but you’ll have rate certainty.
Within fixed rate plans, there are some different options:
- Basic fixed rate plans: These are the simplest plans and often the ones we recommend based on our 20+ years of industry experience. There are no gimmicks or fine print. Just one basic fixed energy rate for the term of your agreement.
- Bill credit/Tiered rate plans: These plans are focused on consumers that use a specific level of power. If your usage matches these criteria, you can get a good value for your home.
- Free nights & weekends: Free electricity plans give you free power at certain times. These plans can work for you if you can shift your electricity usage to the free energy time period. (May not be available in the Lubbock area.)
- Prepaid electricity: Depending on your credit, you may have to pay a deposit with traditional energy companies. Instead, prepaid electricity lets you pay a small amount ($40-75) up front to get your lights on. Then you’ll add funds to your account as you use power.
We recommend basic fixed rate plans for most consumers. That’s especially true if you are new to deregulation.
How to Compare Electric Rates in Lubbock
When it comes to shopping, the biggest confusion comes around electricity rates displayed at 500, 1000 or 2000 kWh. That’s the average rate based on that amount of power. But when you look into the details you could pay a different rate based on how much you use.
And this is why we recommend basic fixed rate plans, especially for consumers that are new to deregulation. Here are the other tips on how to shop and compare electric rates in Lubbock:
- Shop based on your usage, so you know exactly what you will pay per kWh, and the estimated monthly bill. Our Electricity Bill Calculator feature does all the math for you!
- Read one-line summaries of the fine print on each plan. We highlight key items for you.
- Shop by type of plan. If you want a tiered rate or bill credit plan, you can find those. But you can also find basic fixed rate plans, which is what we recommend for most homes.
- Compare plans side-by-side with the Compare Plans tool, then send the results to yourself via email if you’re not ready to buy yet.

For years, Lubbock Power & Light operated as a city owned utility company under the Southwest Power Pool (SPP) electrical grid. Lubbock operated their own power plant and also purchased power from the SPP grid.
But population growth and increasing demand led LP&L to a decision point. They would either have to invest in a new power plant, costing local taxpayers millions of dollars. Or they could join the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) the grid operator that runs the Texas grid.
By joining ERCOT, they have access to a larger electricity market and more competitive pricing.
You can find the cheapest electricity plan for your Lubbock home or business by shopping online. We recommend shopping only no gimmicks fixed rate electricity plans. We call these Basic Electricity.
Plans that have tiered rates, bill credits and flat bill amounts look attractive. But the fine print behind them may leave you paying more than you expected.
To find the cheapest electricity rates, always shop based on your monthly electricity usage. Sites like ElectricityPlans.com let you enter your zip code and usage to compare rates.
You will receive a notice from your REP at least 60 days from your expiration date. You can renew with your current supplier or shop for a new energy provider.
