How to find the best energy plan in Addison

#1 rule: Know your usage!

Discovering how much electricity you will consume each month is the ideal way to shop for electricity in Addison. Why is this important?

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

Every plan uses a different calculation for how your monthly bill is calculated, and your monthly bill will change according to how much energy you consume 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 when you ordered.

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

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

Better yet, 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 ideal way to determine the perfect energy rate plan for your home.

Compare Power does all the complicated math for you instantly. What takes hours on a spreadsheet is now solved in just moments.

We put you in the driver’s seat, taking what would amount to hours of investigation, spreadsheets, and computations across hundreds of plans, and navigate you step-by-step to the electricity rate plan that’s best for your home’s consumption.

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

We then assist you in signing up with your chosen power company without ever having to leave our website.

The takeaway here is you should know your expected or historical usage before selecting the best electricity plan for your home.

If you don’t know your usage, estimate

If you recently purchased a home or business, or you cannot obtain 12 months of usage history, you can always estimate the average amount of energy that you will use 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 Compare Power to find the best energy plan for your**specific usage.

Moving to Addison: Setting Up Electricity

If this is your first time setting up electricity service in Addison, 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.

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

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

Note: If you are unable to obtain historical usage information, a second option would be to estimate your future usage via utilizing our “Help Me Choose” tool. By simply entering your zip code the tool will be able to assess your home’s projected electricity consumption.

Sign-up for a plan instantly through Compare Power. We will remind you when its time to return to switch and save at the end of the plan length you decide on.

Switching Electric Companies in Addison

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

Your existing electricity provider will normally raise your energy rate once your term expires. If you do not 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 shop the rates of competing energy 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 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 decide to switch, your new electricity provider will take care of everything for you including terminating service with your previous company.

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

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

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

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

The amount saved each month by switching to a different electricity company may outweigh the one-time fee to get out of your contract early.

If you are unsureemail us your latest energy bill and one of our team members will respond 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 knowing your usage is the best way to find the truly best price.

Keep in mind that when you get ready to switch, and you want to know the most efficient way to find the right plan at the best rate, it is essential that you first understand your usage. To accomplish that, you will need to collect the usage history for the past 12 months.
