    If you’re a small or medium business, it’s easy to shop for electricity rates in Texas.

We can connect you with brand name companies with flexible deposit policies.

    You can view electricity rates based on your load factor (high, medium or low load factor electricity pricing). And you can view rates based on your start month, up to 6 months ahead of time. That lets you plan ahead to manage your utilities.

    What’s Different Between Commercial & Residential Rates?

    In a deregulated market like Texas, businesses can shop for an electricity supplier just like a residents can. But it’s a little different for business vs. residential.

    First, since the TDU delivery charges on your commercial electricity bill vary based on your business’s meter designation, business electricity rate quotes are for energy only.

    Your business’s TDU delivery rate varies based on the type of meter(s) you have. Your electricity provider passes through the TDU delivery charges on your bill every month.

    As a result, the TDU delivery charges are the same regardless of who you choose to supply the commercial power for your business. So what that means is, you’re shopping to find the electricity supplier that gives you the best price per kWh for business electricity energy only.

    The second reason it’s different shopping for commercial vs. residential electricity? Transparency. Many business electricity suppliers don’t publish their commercial electricity rates online.

    The third reason it’s different shopping for business electricity in Texas? There is no Power to Choose site for commercial electricity rates in Texas. So Texas businesses don’t have that as an option.

    So the best way to choose an electricity supplier for your business? Is to compare business electricity suppliers online using ElectricityPlans.com. Just enter your zip code to compare business power rates and find the cheapest energy rates for your business in Texas.

    How to Get the Best Business Electricity Rates in TX

    There are three important things to know, to get the best prices for your business electricity in Texas.

    1. First, know how much electricity you use.
    2. Second, know when you use electricity.
    3. And third, know your load factor, meaning the average amount of power you use vs. the maximum amount of power you use at any given time.

    Knowing these three things helps you get the best rates for your business.

    Businesses that spend less than $2,500 a month (small business electricity rates) can shop online, and make a business energy rate comparison. These businesses are usually low load factor.

    Businesses that spend more than $2,500 a month (large business electricity rates) can shop for custom rates, which may be lower.

    Your demand profile or how you use commercial power, impacts your business electricity rate. For example, rates will be very different between an office building vs. a restaurant vs. a manufacturing facility. Most small business customers in Texas are low load factor. You can shop based on high, medium or low load factor on our site. If you don’t know? You’ll low load factor.

    You should also consider when you shop for your electricity. Plan ahead and manage your business electricity shopping for the best rates. You can start shopping rates for your contract renewal up to 6 months ahead of time. Then just schedule your start date to coincide with your contract expiration. This can be a great tip for avoiding high summer renewal prices.

    Consider different contract terms. Electricity rates will vary depending seasonality, the wholesale electricity market and forecasts. Sometime long term rates are better (24 months or longer). Sometimes short term business power prices are cheaper (6 month or 12 month business power rates). Just enter your zip code to start shopping rates in Texas.
