Your power to choose electricity in Killeen
In a traditional energy market, residents and business owners are required to purchase their electricity from their local utility company with no choice in the matter. With deregulated energy, which is the system in place throughout much of Texas, you can buy your plan directly from Killeen electric companies instead of relying on your utility company. In turn, you can secure great deals as suppliers compete to earn your business with more affordable rates.

Killeen utilities and electricity providers
There are several key differences between your utility company and your electric company. A utility company maintains power lines, distributes power, transmits electricity, and repairs grid infrastructure. If you experience a power outage, the utility takes care of the problem to get your lights back on. In Killeen, the utility company is Oncor Electric Delivery.
On the other hand, energy providers generate power, sell it to their customers, and manage accounts and billing. The Choose Energy marketplace allows you to compare rates from trusted Texas energy providers free of charge. Some popular energy providers in Killeen include 4Change Energy, Express Energy, and TXU Energy.

Types of electricity plans in Killeen
Shopping for Killeen electric companies on the Choose Energy marketplace means you’ll encounter a few different plan types. Here’s a quick breakdown:
- Fixed-rate: With a fixed-rate plan, you lock in a fixed energy rate throughout the length of your contract, which will typically last between 12 to 36 months. The benefit here is that you can budget appropriately for your energy costs since you don’t have to worry about rate hikes. However, if you switch providers before your term ends, you will likely be required to pay an early termination fee (ETF).
- Variable rate: A variable-rate plan is month-to-month, and your energy rate can change due to fluctuating market conditions. In addition, you can switch plans whenever you want with no early termination penalties because there’s no contract involved.
- Prepaid & no-deposit: Killeen energy companies may require a deposit if you don’t meet their credit threshold. No-deposit plans, such as a prepaid plan, give you a way to bypass the deposit requirement. You pay for your electricity ahead of time and your provider will notify you when the balance runs low so you can top it up with no interruption to your service.
