How to find the best energy plan in Boling

#1 rule: Know your usage!

Determining the amount of electricity you will use monthly is the best way to find a deal on electricity in Boling. Why is this so vital?

The rate you see energy providers advertising is for an exact monthly usage (typically 2000 kWh).

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

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

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

Calculating your expected monthly bill based on estimated monthly usage, then comparing rates with the total monthly bill is the best way to shop for the lowest rate for your household.

Even better, if you have 12 months of usage history for your household, you can compare plans by total annual cost. This annualized method considers the changes in usage between the summer and winter and is the best way to discover the right electricity plan for your home.

Compare Power does all this math for you instantly. What could take you hours on a spreadsheet is now done in a few moments.

We put the power in your hands, taking what would amount to hours of investigation, spreadsheets, and computations across hundreds of plans and navigating you step-by-step to the energy plan that’s best for your household’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 bill.

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

The takeaway here is you must determine your expected or historical usage before picking the right electricity plan for your home.

If you don’t know your usage, estimate

Suppose you recently purchased a home and cannot obtain 12 months of usage history. In that case, you can always estimate the average energy you will use in any given month.

Although knowing the previous 12 months of usage is optimum, it is far better to estimate the average energy consumption than to select the first electricity provider that you see advertised. After all, you have no idea how much energy you will use at that point.

Use Compare Power to shop for the best energy plan for your**specific usage.

Moving to Boling: Setting up electricity

If this is your first time setting up electricity service in Boling, 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, Compare Power 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 Compare Power, you will receive automated reminders when renewing your existing plan or possibly switching plans.

Switching electricity companies in Boling

Switching is good. Market conditions are constantly in flux, so shopping for a lower rate every year when your contract expires is essential.

Your existing energy provider will generally raise your electricity rate once your contract expires. If you do not take action, you’ll be left on a month-to-month rate significantly more than the plan you signed up for.

Before renewing your contract, shop the rates of competing electricity providers.

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

Switching is easy:

When you decide to switch, your new energy provider will take care of everything for you, including terminating service with your previous provider.

Your lights stay on when you switch. Electricity in Boling 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 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. 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.

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 unsure, email 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 want to know how to find the best plan remember that understanding your usage is the best way to find the truly lowest 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.

Did You Know?

HISTORICAL

Boling was founded in 1906 as a railroad town along the Missouri Pacific Railroad line, named after railroad executive Frank Boling. The town served as a crucial shipping point for cotton and cattle from the surrounding agricultural areas, with the railroad depot becoming the economic heart of the community for decades.

RECENT

In 2018, Boling completed a major infrastructure improvement project that upgraded the city's water treatment facility and replaced aging water lines throughout the community. This $2.3 million project was funded through a combination of state grants and local bonds, ensuring reliable water service for residents and supporting future growth.

FAMOUS PEOPLE

Country music singer George Strait's grandfather owned a ranch near Boling, and the future 'King of Country' spent many childhood summers in the area learning to rope cattle and ride horses. These experiences on the Wharton County ranch heavily influenced Strait's authentic cowboy image and many of his hit songs about rural Texas life.

DID YOU KNOW

Boling is home to one of the last remaining original Missouri Pacific Railroad depots in Texas, built in 1907 and still standing today. The depot features the original telegraph equipment used to coordinate train schedules, and local legend claims that during Prohibition, the depot's basement was used to hide bootleg whiskey being transported by rail.

CULTURAL

Every October, Boling hosts the annual 'Cotton Festival' celebrating the town's agricultural heritage, featuring a cotton picking contest where participants compete using vintage equipment from the early 1900s. The festival also includes a 'Railroad Days' celebration with model train displays and historical reenactments of the town's founding, drawing visitors from across Southeast Texas.
