Electricity rates change frequently based on the time of year, wholesale costs, and global consumer demand. Texas electric rates are usually steady through the spring and higher as temperatures rise. The hotter the temperature outside, the more you use an air conditioner. Most of Texas is a deregulated energy market, which means you can pick an electricity provider and plan that best fits your energy needs. Signing up for plans during seasons of lower demand helps you secure lower rates. Regularly comparing rates is also an excellent way to ensure you get the best price.
