Your delivery utility

Who delivers electricity in Fairview

Oncor owns and maintains the poles, wires, and meters in Fairview. Whichever plan you pick, Oncor still delivers the power and restores outages — switching providers never changes your wires. Every price on this page already includes Oncor delivery charges. If a rate elsewhere looks lower, check whether delivery is in it yet.

Quick answers

Fairview electricity questions, answered

As of August 2026, plans we offer in the Oncor territory average 15.3¢ per kWh at 1,000 kWh of monthly use, and today’s lowest effective rate is 6.8¢. Advertised rates move with your usage, so price plans at your own numbers.

Oncor is Fairview’s transmission and delivery utility. It owns the wires and meters and restores outages. You choose your retail electricity provider; Oncor delivers no matter who you pick.

Yes — most Fairview 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.

Yes. Texas law gives you a 14-day window before your contract end date to switch with NO early-termination fee. Find your end date on your bill, then shop it today — the expensive move is drifting onto a holdover rate.

It changes with your usage. The lowest effective rate we price in Fairview today is 6.8¢ per kWh at 1,000 kWh — but a plan that wins at 1,000 kWh can lose at 2,000. Enter your ZIP and usage to see which company is cheapest for your home.

How to find the best energy plan in Fairview

#1 rule: Determine what your usage is!

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

The rate you see energy companies advertising is for an exact monthly usage (usually 1000 kWh).

Every plan has a different calculation for how your monthly statement is calculated, and your monthly bill will vary depending on how much electricity you consume in a month.

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

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

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

Better yet, 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 months and is the best way to find the right electricity rate plan for your home.

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

We put you in the driver’s seat, taking what would amount to hours of research, spreadsheets, and calculations across hundreds of offers, and guide 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 precisely where your money is going and what to anticipate on your bill.

We then help you enroll with your chosen energy company without leaving our website.

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

If you don’t know your usage, estimate

If you cannot acquire 12 months of historical usage, or you’re the owner of a brand new home, the next best thing is to estimate how much energy you will use in an average 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 Fairview: Setting up electricity

If this is your first time setting up electricity service in Fairview, 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 will be able to 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 Fairview

Switching is good. Market conditions are constantly in flux, so it is essential to shop for a lower rate 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 significantly more than the plan you signed up for.

Before renewing your contract, shop the rates of competing energy 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 canceling service with your previous provider.

There is no loss of power when you switch. Electricity in Fairview 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 providers. 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” fee. 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 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 unsure, email us your latest energy bill, and one of our team members will get back 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 knowing your usage is the best way to find the best price.

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

Did You Know?

HISTORICAL

Fairview was originally settled in the 1840s by pioneers who named it for the beautiful panoramic views of the surrounding countryside from the area's rolling hills. The community remained a small farming settlement for over a century until the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex expansion reached the area in the 1980s, transforming it from rural farmland into an affluent suburban enclave.

RECENT

In 2020, Fairview completed construction of its new Town Center development, featuring upscale retail shops, restaurants, and community gathering spaces designed to create a walkable downtown district. The project represents a $50 million investment in creating a true city center for what had previously been a primarily residential community spread across large lots and acreage properties.

FAMOUS PEOPLE

Country music superstar Keith Whitley lived in Fairview during the height of his career in the late 1980s, where he wrote several of his hit songs including 'When You Say Nothing at All.' The town's peaceful, rural atmosphere provided inspiration for his music, and he often mentioned the area's natural beauty in interviews before his untimely death in 1989.

DID YOU KNOW

Fairview is home to one of the largest concentrations of horse properties in Collin County, with over 40% of residential lots being one acre or larger specifically to accommodate equestrian facilities. The city has special zoning ordinances that protect agricultural uses, allowing residents to keep horses, cattle, and other livestock right in their backyards despite being just 30 miles from downtown Dallas.

CULTURAL

Every October, Fairview hosts the annual 'Fall Festival and Chili Cook-off' in Fairview Town Center, where residents compete in categories ranging from traditional Texas red chili to exotic international variations. The event draws over 5,000 visitors and has become so popular that winning recipes are compiled into a community cookbook sold to benefit local charities, with some recipes dating back to the original farming families who settled the area.
