Your power to choose electricity 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. This means that, 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 utility companies and energy providers

In Round Rock’s deregulated energy market, there are utility companies and energy providers, each of which fulfills a different role. Utilities 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 don’t have a choice in utility companies because they’re assigned based on where you live; in Round Rock, the assigned utility is Oncor Electric Delivery.

However, as a resident or business owner in Round Rock, you’re free to choose from the many electricity companies that serve your area. These companies sell energy plans to consumers and manage details like usage and billing. There are numerous Round Rock electricity providers to choose from, including Express Energy, TriEagle Energy, and TXU Energy.

Power outages in Round Rock

Experiencing a power outage in Round Rock? Don’t call your energy provider. Instead, report it to your utility company. You can reach Oncor Electric Delivery by:

  • Visiting its outage center
  • Calling 1-888-313-4747
  • Texting OUT to 66267

Types of electricity plans in Round Rock

You’ll find multiple types of energy plans in Round Rock on the Choose Energy marketplace, including fixed-rate, variable-rate, and no-deposit options. Here’s how each type works so you can figure out which one is best for you.

  • Fixed-rate plans: Fixed-rate plans come with a contract (which usually lasts 12, 24, or 36 months) and a set electricity rate that won’t change for the duration of that contract. A fixed-rate plan is a good choice if you’re looking for a long-term agreement and predictable energy costs. It’s important to note, though, that you’ll likely incur an early termination fee (ETF) if you cancel or switch before your contract is up.
  • Variable-rate plans: If flexibility is your priority, then a variable-rate plan could be the right option for you. It doesn’t have a contract, so you can change providers at any time without paying an ETF. However, your rate is tied to the wholesale price of electricity — so your energy costs can increase when demand goes up.
  • Prepaid and no-deposit plans: When you sign up for a new energy plan, the provider may require you to pay a deposit. But by signing up for a no-deposit plan, you can avoid this initial fee. For example, with a prepaid plan, you can pay for your electricity upfront and replenish your account when it runs low.

The Lone Star State has a strong focus on renewable energy generation. In fact, Texas is the country’s leading producer of wind energy and the second-biggest producer of solar energy. So, if you’re looking for a green energy plan in Round Rock, you’re in luck.
