Choose Energy only works with trusted energy providers, including Discount Power. When we choose our partner providers, we consider factors like reliability, variety of plans, customer service, and more. Because it meets these criteria, Choose Energy is proud to feature Discount Power on our marketplace.
Types of rates offered by Discount Power
Like most providers, Discount Power offers two types of electricity rates: fixed and variable.
- Fixed-rate plans: When you opt for a fixed-rate plan, you’ll typically enter into a contract with Discount Power for 12–36 months. Your rate will remain stable during this period, giving you more predictable energy bills.
- Variable-rate plans: In contrast, variable-rate plans do not usually offer long-term contracts, so they’re a good choice if you can’t meet the credit threshold or do not want to commit to one provider for an extended period. Your Discount Power variable rate isn’t locked in. That means your bill is likely to fluctuate from one billing cycle to the next.

No-deposit options from Discount Power
When you sign up with Discount Power, you may need to complete a credit check. Depending on the results, you may be required to pay a deposit before beginning electricity service. To explore other options in your area for no-deposit or prepaid energy plans, enter your ZIP code. You can also call the number on your screen to navigate the process with an energy expert.
Green energy with Discount Power
Each Texas energy plan includes some percentage of green energy from solar or wind sources, and Discount Power plans are no exception. These plans are powered by 21% renewable energy, slightly below the statewide average. The company doesn’t currently offer any 100% green energy plans.
Moving or transferring service with Discount Power
Are you switching to Discount Power from another provider? Or are you an existing Discount Power customer moving to a new address? In either case, you’ll find it easy to transfer or begin your service.
You can use the Choose Energy marketplace to compare electricity providers and plans. After you’ve chosen your new provider or plan, there’s no extra work on your end to transfer your service. Your provider will manage the logistics, and you shouldn’t experience any disruptions to your electricity.
Renting with Discount Power
Discount Power’s energy plans work well for renters and homeowners. However, renters may especially like the company’s variable-rate plan, Wise Buy Monthly. This plan doesn’t lock you into a long-term contract — you can change plans when you need to move.
Cancellation fees
As with most electricity providers, Discount Power charges early termination fees (ETFs) to customers who terminate service before their contract ends. These fees only apply to fixed-rate plans and range from $150 to $395, depending on the length of your contract.
Discount Power business electricity
Discount Power does not currently sell commercial energy plans. If your business needs a new electricity provider, Choose Energy can help build a plan to fit your needs. Call the number on this page or read more about choosing a business energy provider near you.
