A few of the most well-known providers in the DeSoto area are 4Change Energy, Constellation Energy, and TXU Energy.

Types of electricity plans in DeSoto
When comparing DeSoto electricity rates using the Choose Energy marketplace, you may find a few different types of energy plans:
- Fixed-rate plans: Fixed-rate plans allow you to secure your rate before you sign the contract, which typically lasts between 12 and 36 months. Your energy rates won’t fluctuate, and you’ll pay a fixed price for the duration of your contract. However, if you cancel your plan early, you’ll likely have to pay an early termination fee (ETF).
- Variable-rate plans: If you choose a variable-rate plan, your rates could change monthly based on the wholesale price of energy. These plans offer you the chance to save during months when energy rates are lower, though your rates will rise during months of higher market prices. Variable-rate plans do not lock you into a contract, so you can switch to another plan anytime.
- No-deposit plans: Many companies will require a deposit before beginning service. However, no-deposit plans can help you avoid this payment before your contract begins. Prepaid plans, a popular no-deposit option, allow you to pay for your energy in advance and top up your account when your balance runs low.
