How to find the best energy plan in Bradshaw

#1 rule: Determine what your usage is!

Determining the amount of energy you will use monthly is the best way to find a deal on power in Bradshaw. Why does this matter?

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

Every plan has a different calculation for how your monthly statement is computed, and your monthly bill will change according to how much power you consume in a month.

Unless you use the advertised amount each month, you will end up paying a “price per kWh” different than the one you saw advertised when you ordered.

Fortunately, there’s a better way to choose your energy rate.

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

Better still, if you have a year 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 months and is the best way to find the ideal energy plan for your home.

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

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

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

We then assist you in signing-up with your chosen electricity company without leaving our service.

The bottom line is you must 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 and cannot obtain 12 months of usage history, 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 find the best energy plan for your**specific usage.

Moving to Bradshaw: Setting up electricity

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

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 by utilizing 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 it’s time to renew your existing plan or possibly switch plans.

Switching electricity companies in Bradshaw

Switching is good. Market conditions are constantly changing, so it is essential to shop for a lower price each year when your contract expires.

Your existing energy provider 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 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 energy bill.

Switching is easy:

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

Your lights stay on when you switch. Electricity in Bradshaw 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 within 14 days of your contract expiration without an “early cancellation” 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.

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 cheapest rate.

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

Did You Know?

HISTORICAL

Bradshaw was established in 1910 as a railroad town along the Santa Fe Railway line that connected Lubbock to Stamford. The town was named after a railroad official and quickly became a vital shipping point for cotton and cattle from the surrounding South Plains region, serving as a lifeline for rural farmers during the early 20th century.

RECENT

In 2019, Bradshaw completed a major water infrastructure upgrade project funded by a USDA Rural Development grant worth $750,000. The project replaced aging water lines and installed a new water tower, ensuring reliable water service for the next 50 years and supporting potential future growth in this small farming community.

FAMOUS PEOPLE

Country music songwriter Red Lane, who penned hits like 'The World Needs a Melody' recorded by Loretta Lynn and Conway Twitty, spent part of his childhood in Bradshaw during the 1940s. Lane went on to write over 400 songs and was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, but always credited his small-town Texas roots for inspiring his storytelling style.

DID YOU KNOW

Bradshaw holds the unusual distinction of being one of the few Texas towns where the original 1910 railroad depot building still serves as the unofficial community center and meeting place. The depot, which hasn't seen passenger service since 1967, was converted by volunteers into a museum and event space, complete with original wooden benches and vintage railroad memorabilia that locals discovered in the building's attic.

CULTURAL

Every October, Bradshaw hosts the 'Harvest Moon Festival,' a tradition that began in 1985 when local farmers decided to celebrate the end of cotton harvest season together. The festival features a community-wide potluck dinner served on tables set up along Main Street, live country music, and a contest for the biggest pumpkin grown in Crosby County, drawing visitors from across the South Plains region.
