How to Find the Best Energy Plan in Porter

#1 rule: Usage is king!

Knowing the amount of electricity you will use in a month is the ideal way to shop for power in Porter. Why is this important?

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

Every plan uses a different calculation for how your monthly statement is calculated, and your monthly bill will change according to how much electricity you use in a month.

Unless you match the exact advertised usage each month, you will pay a “price per kWh” different than the one you saw advertised when you enrolled.

Thankfully, there’s a better way to pick your energy provider.

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

Even better, if you have a year of usage history for your home, you can compare plans by total annual cost. This annualized method considers the changes in usage between the summer and winter months and is the ideal way to find the right electricity plan for your home.

ComparePower does all the complicated math for you in an instant. What could take you hours on a spreadsheet is done in moments.

We put the power in your hands, taking what would amount to hours of investigation, spreadsheets, and calculations across hundreds of offers and navigating you step-by-step to the electricity rate plan that’s best for your home’s consumption.

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

We then help you sign up with your selected energy provider without leaving our service.

The bottom line is you should determine your expected or historical usage before picking the best energy plan for your home.

If you don’t know your usage, estimate

Suppose you recently purchased a home or business or cannot obtain 12 months of usage history. In that case, you can always estimate your average energy in any given 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 electricity plan for your specific usage.

Moving to Porter: Setting up Electricity

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

Ask the previous homeowner to provide you with their past 12 months of usage.

This information is readily found in recent billing statements.

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

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

Note: If you cannot obtain historical usage information, a second option would be to estimate your future usage using our “Help Me Choose” tool. By simply entering your zip code, the tool can assess your home’s projected electricity consumption.

By signing up for a plan through ComparePower you will receive automated reminders when it’s time to renew your existing plan or switch plans.

Switching Electricity Companies in Porter

Switching is good. Market conditions are constantly in flux, so it is essential to shop for a lower rate every year when your contract is about to expire.

Your existing electricity company will normally 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 more than the plan you signed up for.

Before renewing your contract, check the rates of competing energy providers.

Switching can save you hundreds or thousands of dollars yearly on your electricity bill.

Switching is easy:

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

When you switch, your new energy company will take care of everything for you, including canceling service with your previous company.

Your lights stay on when you switch. Electricity in Porter 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 companies. Therefore the reliability of your service is not affected.

You can pick any date up to 14 days early from your current contract’s end date without an “early termination” penalty. Texas law protects you here.

If you’re still under contract, find out 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 companies may outweigh the fee to break your existing contract.

If you’re ready to switch and would like to know how to find the best plan remember that knowing your usage is the best way to find the lowest price.

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