In Texas, energy providers and utility companies split up their responsibilities. Sherman utilities deliver electricity to your home, maintain power lines, and respond to outages. You cannot choose your utility company because it is determined based on your location.

Your energy provider sells power to you and manages your account by tracking your energy usage. You can choose your Sherman electric company from a variety of providers. Companies like 4Change Energy, Gexa Energy, Express Energy, and Frontier Utilities all offer energy plans in Sherman at competitive electricity rates.

When you shop for a Sherman energy plan on Choose Energy, you may come across a few different options. Understanding how each one works will help you find the best one for you.

• Fixed-rate: Your energy rate remains the same throughout your contract. Contracts may span one to three years, depending on the provider. The benefit is you won’t have to worry about rate hikes, so a fixed-rate plan may be ideal if you want a predictable rate. However, if you need to cancel your service during the term, you might owe an early termination fee (ETF).
• Variable-rate: Variable-rate plans go month-to-month and your energy rate can change frequently depending on market conditions. It also means you’re free to switch your provider without any fees. Variable-rate plans are less predictable than fixed-rate plans, but they offer more flexibility.
• Prepaid & no-deposit plans: Texas electric companies can check your credit when you sign up for service. If your score falls below their criteria, you might have to pay a deposit before beginning service. You can bypass a deposit with a prepaid or no-deposit plan, and pay for your energy in advance. Then, you’ll top up your account when the balance runs low.
