How to choose your power in Round Rock

In 2002, Texas deregulated most of its energy market. Since then, residents and business owners in much of the state — including Round Rock — have had the power to choose their electricity company. As a resident of Round Rock, you can shop around to find the energy plan that fits your budget and preferences instead of buying power from your utility company.

Round Rock energy companies with the cheapest rates

Round Rock customers have a wide variety of electricity company options to choose from on the Choose Energy marketplace. Here are our top picks, depending on your priority and preference.

Regardless of your energy provider choice, the same local utility company will deliver power to your area. Utility companies distribute electricity to houses and commercial buildings in their service area, respond to power outages, and take care of power lines and other electrical infrastructure. You can’t choose your utility because it’s assigned by location. The utility company in Round Rock is Oncor Electric Delivery. If your power goes out, you can contact Oncor in one of the following ways:

  • Call (888) 313-4747 to report an outage
  • Text “OUT” to 66267
  • Visit Oncor’s online outage map

Factors to consider when choosing an electricity plan

Picking the best energy plan for your home isn’t just about finding the cheapest rate. There are many other features to consider before enrolling in a new plan. Each factor can affect the cost of your monthly bill.

  • Fixed vs. variable rates: A fixed-rate plan locks in your price per kWh for the length of the contract, while a variable-rate plan may change each month based on market conditions.
  • Contract length: You can usually choose from 12-, 24-, and 36-month options. Long-term contracts might be a good fit if you lock in a low rate and don’t plan to switch anytime soon. Short-term contracts are better if you need a quick solution.
  • Same-day electricity: Some energy providers offer same-day service. As long as you sign up before the provider’s cutoff time, you can receive power on the same day you enroll.
  • Renewable energy options: Some providers offset your energy usage with renewable energy certificates. Choosing a green energy plan allows you to reduce your home’s carbon footprint.
  • Electricity Facts Label (EFL): This document breaks down the plan’s details, including fees, terms, renewable percentage, and how your rate might change over time. Read and understand your EFL before signing up.
  • Your usage habits: Review how much electricity you use each month. You can use this information to help you compare plans based on your usage instead of the default.
