Yes — most Clarksville addresses have smart meters, so orders placed by 5 p.m. on a business day can start the same day. Pick your start date at checkout, up to 90 days ahead.

Compare effective rates at YOUR usage, not advertised rates — fees and bill credits bend each plan differently. Check the contract length and cancellation fee, then confirm delivery charges are included. The tables on this page do all three, and checkout takes about ten minutes.

How to find the best energy plan in Clarksville

#1 rule: Determine what your usage is!

Determining the amount of electricity you will consume month-to-month is the ideal way to shop for electricity in Clarksville. Why is this important?

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

Every plan has a different equation for how your monthly statement is calculated, and your monthly bill will change according to how much power you consume in the 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 signed up.

Thankfully, there’s a better way to choose your power rate.

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

Better yet, 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 ideal way to find the ideal electricity rate plan for your home.

Compare Power does all the complicated math for you instantly. What could take you hours on a spreadsheet is now solved in seconds.

We put the power in your hands, taking what would amount to hours of research, spreadsheets, and computations across hundreds of plans and guiding you to the energy rate plan that’s best for your household’s consumption.

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

We then help you enroll with your selected power provider without leaving our website.

The takeaway here is you must determine your expected or historical usage before selecting the right energy 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 energy provider at a specific usage that isn’t what you’ll consume.

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

Moving to Clarksville: Setting up electricity

If this is your first time setting up electricity service in Clarksville, 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 it’s time to return to switch and save at the end of the plan term you decide on.

Switching electricity companies in Clarksville

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

Your existing energy company will generally raise your electricity rate once your contract expires. If you fail to 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, 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 decide to switch, your new energy provider will take care of everything for you, including terminating service with your previous company.

Your lights stay on when you switch. Electricity in Clarksville 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 choose any date up to 14 days before 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 of breaking your existing contract.

For help with this, you can send us your latest energy bill via email, and one of our professional team members will contact you shortly to discuss 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 cheapest price.

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

Did You Know?

HISTORICAL

Clarksville was founded in 1833 and holds the distinction of being the oldest incorporated town in North Texas. Named after James Clark, an early Red River trader, the town served as a crucial river port during the steamboat era when the Red River was navigable, making it a vital commercial hub for cotton and timber trade in the antebellum period.

RECENT

In 2020, Clarksville completed a major downtown revitalization project that restored several historic buildings along the courthouse square, including the conversion of the old Farmers State Bank building into a community arts center. The project has attracted new businesses and helped preserve the town's Victorian-era architecture while boosting tourism and local economic development.

FAMOUS PEOPLE

Clarksville was the birthplace of Matthew Gaines, a former slave who became one of the first African American state senators in Texas during Reconstruction in 1870. Gaines was instrumental in establishing Prairie View A&M University and fought for civil rights and education reform throughout his political career, making him one of the most significant political figures to emerge from East Texas.

DID YOU KNOW

Clarksville is home to the oldest continuously operating courthouse in Texas, built in 1885, which still houses the Red River County government today. The courthouse features a unique four-faced clock tower that was manufactured by the same company that made Big Ben's clockwork, and local legend claims you can hear the chimes from five miles away on a clear night.

CULTURAL

Every September, Clarksville hosts the Red River County Fair and Rodeo, which has been running continuously since 1889, making it one of the oldest county fairs in Texas. The event features traditional rodeo competitions, a parade of vintage tractors, and the famous 'World's Largest Fish Fry' that serves over 3,000 pounds of catfish caught from local Red River tributaries to thousands of visitors from across the region.
