HOW TO CHOOSE
Choosing an electric company in Temple.
When looking for your retail electricity provider and choosing an electric plan, there’s a number of factors to keep in mind. You’ll be able to choose a plan that’s best for you if you understand your energy usage and what’s important to you in a provider. Below are a series of tips to help you make the best decision for your household.
1
Assess Your Usage Patterns
Temple's hot summers and mild winters significantly impact electricity consumption. Consider your home size and whether you have a typical 1,500 square foot home or larger property, as air conditioning drives higher usage during June through September.
2
Compare Available Plan Options
Filter through the 87 plans available to Temple residents based on your usage level, preferred contract length, and renewable energy preferences. Match plan types to your household's specific consumption patterns identified in step one.
3
Review Each Plan's EFL
The Electricity Facts Label shows exact pricing at different usage levels, including base charges and per-kWh rates. Pay attention to the 1000 kWh rate for typical Temple homes, and higher tiers if you use more electricity.
4
Check Provider Customer Ratings
Review our provider ratings compiled from online reviews and Public Utility Commission complaints data. These ratings appear on each plan card and reflect real experiences from Texas customers with billing, customer service, and reliability.
5
Understand All Contract Terms
Examine contract length options, early termination fees, and renewal policies. Temple residents should consider whether fixed-rate stability or flexibility better suits their situation, especially if planning to move or preferring seasonal adjustments.
6
Complete Your Plan Enrollment
Our integrated system connects directly with ComparePower to streamline enrollment. Have your service address and move-in date ready, and you can finalize your electricity setup alongside your Temple water utility service efficiently.
TEXAS ENERGY DEREGULATION
How deregulated energy works
A deregulated energy market is one where customers have the power to choose their electricity provider, rather than being limited to a single utility. In Texas, about 90% of residents have this freedom. This system is designed to encourage competition, leading to better electricity prices and services for consumers. In the deregulated electricity market, retail electric providers (REPs) offer various plans and rates, while utility companies maintain the infrastructure and deliver the electricity.
Retail Electric Providers
In a deregulated market like Texas, you get to choose your retail electric provider. We can help you decide on the right provider and plan.
Utility Companies
Utility companies maintain the infrastructure to deliver your energy and are the same regardless of the energy provider you choose.
