Compare electricity rates in Arlington

Situated in between Dallas and Fort Worth, Arlington is a bustling city with just over 195,000 residents. As the home of the Dallas Cowboys and Texas Rangers, Arlington is a popular city with both locals and tourists.

Like many other cities in Texas, Arlington is deregulated. As an energy customer, this gives you the power to choose your electricity supplier – also called an electricity provider or retail electric provider (REP).

In 2002, deregulation took effect in most parts of Texas, including the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. Since then, Arlington electric companies have been working diligently to earn new business, offering competitive rates, a variety of plans, and features including green energy options.

As a result, Texans enjoy lower electricity rates than many other parts of the country. In fact, residential electric rates in the Lone Star State are 11.4 percent lower than the national average, and commercial rates are 28.33 percent lower than the U.S. average.

At Choose Energy, we know that deregulation can seem like a complicated concept. That’s why we aim to simplify the energy shopping process by offering an all-in-one marketplace where you can browse and compare Arlington electricity rates in your area with ease.

At the same time, we’re also committed to educating electricity customers about the deregulated market. To help you make more informed decisions, we’ve created the following resources: 

• Learn about qualifying for a no-deposit electricity plan

If you live in a deregulated city like Arlington, you should understand the differences between utility companies and electricity providers. In the past, you would have purchased energy directly from your utility. But these days, you have the option of selecting the company that sells you power (known as your electricity provider or REP).

Still, utilities serve an important purpose in Texas. They’re tasked with delivering electricity to your property via their infrastructure, as well as responding to power outages and tending to downed power lines. Oncor Electric Delivery is the Arlington utilities company, so be sure to get in touch with them if you’re experiencing a power outage.

In contrast, your REP is the company from which you buy power. There are plenty of Arlington electric companies to choose from, including Cirro Energy, Direct Energy, Pulse Power, and TXU Energy. Submit your ZIP code above to learn more about these providers and find the best electric company in Arlington.

As the second-most populated state in the country, Texans use a great deal of energy each year. To combat these challenges, there’s now a large focus on renewable energy initiatives in the Lone Star State. In fact, Texas produces the most wind-generated electricity of any state. It’s also within the top five for solar-generated power.

Thinking about going green with your energy plan? A handful of Arlington electric providers sell renewable plans, including Gexa Energy and Green Mountain Energy. Enter your ZIP code above to explore current green energy plans near you.

With all of this information in mind, you’re ready to begin browsing electric rates and sign up for the plan that’s right for you. So how do you get started?

Instead of using Google to look up terms like “electricity rates in my area” or “electricity rates near me,” you can visit the ChooseEnergy marketplace for a one-stop-shop tool to compare and explore the best plans in your area. 

Our marketplace lets you limit your search to your immediate area, which is essential to finding the most accurate rates. Even if a REP offers the same plan in multiple parts of the state, the pricing won’t be the same across the board since utility companies have different transmission charges.
