Compare electricity rates in Burleson

Burleson is a small city south of Fort Worth with a population of just under 50,000. It has more mild winters but very hot summers, like much of Texas, which means that energy use, and prices, can fluctuate between seasons.

Burleson also has a deregulated energy market, meaning residents can choose a retail electric provider to supply their electricity. Choose Energy’s 24/7 online marketplace helps Burleson citizens navigate this competitive market, showing the best rates from trusted providers.

How has deregulation affected Burleson?

Here’s what the latest statistics from the U.S. Energy Information Administration show:

• Texas residential electricity rates are nearly 11.4 percent lower than the national average.

• Texas commercial electricity rates are nearly 28.33 percent lower than the national average.

• Texas industrial electricity rates are nearly 26 percent lower than the national average.

• Texas generates the most electricity of any state from wind.

• Texas is in the top five each month for generation of electricity from solar energy.

Burleson isn’t the only deregulated city in Texas. In fact, a majority of the market became deregulated in 2002, when Texas Senate Bill Number 7 was passed. What does that mean? In a regulated energy market, residents and businesses didn’t have a choice of energy supplier. Instead, they were automatically enrolled with their area’s utility company. With deregulation, the market became competitive. Various energy suppliers could lower prices or offer different plans to entice customers, which meant better deals for consumers.

Now, Burleson residents can shop for an energy plan like they would anything else, comparing plans and providers to find what works for them. Enter your ZIP code above to see the best electric company Burleson offers in your area.

Energy infrastructure in Burleson is still managed by a utility company, called Oncor Electric Delivery. Oncor is responsible for delivering the energy residents buy and maintaining power lines. Call your Burleson utility company if you experience a power outage.

Meanwhile, residents buy the electricity that Oncor delivers from a retail energy provider. This is who bills you and coordinates your service with the utility company. There are many companies to choose from, but Choose Energy has partnered with trusted providers, such as Reliant Energy, 4Change Energy and TriEagle Energy, so customers who shop in the marketplace can be sure to get reliable service.

Texas is a great place to consider a green energy plan. First in the country for its wind power industry, the Lone Star State’s deep dive into renewables is just beginning. It’s also making strides in solar power, currently fifth among all the states for solar energy generation.
