How has deregulation impacted Mission?
Check out the most recent statistics from the U.S. Energy Information Administration:
- Texas residential electricity rates are nearly 9.5 percent lower than the national average.
- Texas commercial electricity rates are nearly 26 percent lower than the national average.
- Texas industrial electricity rates are nearly 23 percent lower than the national average.

It all started in 2002, when Texas deregulated its energy market. Deregulation gives the majority of the Lone Star State the power to choose energy suppliers from a pool of companies. The idea: Competition would cause energy providers to lower prices and, in turn, drive down energy costs for consumers.
Signing up for an energy plan is like shopping for anything else. Because you’re no longer limited to a single service, you can choose the best and more reasonably priced energy supplier. See what suppliers in your area are offering.
