Electricity price trends in Arlington

The Arlington electricity market is deregulated, meaning you have the power to choose your own electricity provider. In 2002, Texas voted to deregulate its energy market in order to decrease electricity prices for residential and commercial consumers.

Updated March 2023

The average residential electricity rate in Dallas, TX is 14.26 ¢/kWh, 5% less than the U.S. average.

The average Texas business electricity rate is 9.34 ¢/kWh, 25% less than the U.S. average.

How to choose the right energy plan

The #1 most important thing to know is your home's energy usage. 

This 2-minute video explains why shopping with your usage is so important ⤵️ 

#1 rule: Know your usage!

Knowing how much energy you will use month-by-month is the best way to shop for power in Arlington. Why does this matter?

The “price per kWh” you see energy companies advertising is for an exact monthly usage (usually 2000 kWh).

Every plan has a different calculation for how your monthly bill is determined, and your monthly bill will vary depending on how much energy you use each month.

Unless you match the exact advertised usage each month, you will end up paying an effective “price per kWh” different than the one you saw advertised.

Fortunately, there’s a better way to shop for energy.

Calculating your total monthly bill based on expected monthly usage, then comparing plans by total monthly bill, is the best way to shop for the lowest rate.

Even better, if you have 12 months of usage history for your home, you can compare plans by total annual cost. This annualized method takes into account the changes in usage between the summer and winter months and is the absolute best way to find the right energy plan for your home.

ComparePower does all this math for you in an instant. What takes hours inside a spreadsheet is now done in seconds.

We put you in the driver’s seat, taking what would amount to hours of research, spreadsheets, and calculations across hundreds of plans, and navigate you step-by-step to the energy plan that’s best for your home’s usage.

We clarify the fine print, disclosing all fees and charges, so you’ll know exactly where your money is going and what to expect on your bill.

We then let you sign-up with your chosen electricity company without ever leaving our website.

The takeaway here is you must understand your expected or historical usage before choosing the right energy plan for your home.

If you don’t know your usage, estimate

If you are unable to acquire 12 months of historical usage, or you’re the owner of a brand new home, the next best thing is to estimate how much energy you will use in an average month.

While not as optimal as having all the previous 12 months of usage, estimating your average usage is better than blindly choosing the first plan you see advertised by an electricity provider at a specific usage that isn’t what you’ll consume.

Use ComparePower to find the best energy plan for your specific usage.

Did you know Arlington is known as the entertainment capital of Texas?

Arlington hosts the Texas Rangers’ Globe Life Park and the Dallas Cowboys at the AT&T Stadium.

Arlington Electricity Rates

Founded in 1876, Arlington is part of the DFW metroplex, sitting in between downtown Dallas and Fort Worth.

With a population of right around 400,000 people and a total area of 99.0 square miles, Arlington boasts hot summers and mild winters.

The city is home to the University of Texas at Arlington, a significant research institution offering graduate degrees and undergraduate degrees.

You can spend a weekend at Six Flags over Texas, a hot summer day at Hurricane Harbor, or take the family to River Legacy Park and explore the area’s beautiful outdoor hiking and biking trails at the 1,300-acre park on the Trinity River.

Arlington Electricity Rates

Important: If this is your first time setting up electricity service in Arlington, to get the best rate you need to get the previous 12 months of energy usage for your new home.

Ask the previous home-owner to provide you with their past 12 months of usage.

This information is readily found in recent billing statements.

It may take some effort to acquire usage for the past 12 months, but the time (and savings) will be well worth it.

ComparePower will do the math instantly to help you find the best plan for your home’s usage pattern.

Note: If you can’t obtain usage history, you can estimate your monthly usage instead. Utilize our “Help Me Choose” tool when you enter your zipcode below and we’ll help you evaluate your home’s usage.

Switch electricity in Arlington

Switch electricity providers and save 👉

Switching providers is good and can save you money if you compare plans with your home’s usage history.

Market conditions are always changing, so it is essential to shop for a lower price every year when your contract is about to expire.

Your existing electricity company will typically raise your electricity rate once your contract expires. If you fail to take action, you’ll be left on a month-to-month rate that is significantly higher than the plan you signed up.

Before renewing your contract make sure to check the rates of competing electricity providers.

Switching can save you hundreds or thousands of dollars each year on your energy bill.

Switching is easy:

  • You don’t have to call your current company to cancel (no “break-up call”)
  • No one comes to your home
  • There is no disruption in your power supply
  • It takes just minutes

When you make the switch, your new electricity company will handle everything for you including canceling service with your previous provider.

There is no loss of power when you switch. Electricity in Arlington is all delivered by the Oncor Transmission and Distribution Utility.

The wires and poles that deliver electricity to your home do not change when you switch electricity providers. Therefore the reliability of your service is not affected.

You can choose any date 14 days early of your contract expiration without an “early termination penalty.” That’s Texas Law.

If you’re still under contract, check how many months remain on your contract. You can set a future start date with most companies up to 6o days in advance.

And even if you’re well inside your contract, savings achieved on your monthly bill by switching providers may outweigh the fee to break your existing contract.

If you are unsure email us your latest energy bill and one of our team members will get back to you promptly with your best options.

If you’re ready to switch and would like to know how to find the best plan remember that understanding your usage is the best way to find the truly best rate.

You will want to gather your historical usage for the past 12 months to determine the best plan with the lowest rate for your household.
