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 Holiday Lakes

#1 rule: Determine what your usage is!

Knowing the amount of electricity you will consume month-to-month is the best way to shop for power in Holiday Lakes. Why should you care?

You see energy providers advertising the “price per kWh” for an exact monthly usage (usually 2000 kWh).

Every plan has a different equation for how your monthly bill is determined, and your monthly bill will change according to how much energy you use in a month.

Unless you use exactly the advertised amount 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 company.

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

Better still, 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 ideal way to discover the right electricity plan for your home.

Compare Power does all this math for you in an instant. 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 research, spreadsheets, and calculations across hundreds of offers and assisting you step-by-step with the energy rate plan that’s best for your home’s usage.

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 assist you in ordering your plan with your selected power provider without ever having to leave our service.

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

If you don’t know your usage, estimate

Suppose you recently purchased a home or business or 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 find the best energy plan for your**specific usage.

Moving to Holiday Lakes: Setting up electricity

If this is your first time setting up electricity service in Holiday Lakes, 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 Holiday Lakes

Switching is good. Market conditions are always changing, so it is important to shop for a lower rate each year when your contract is about to expire.

Your existing electricity company will normally raise your electricity rate once your term expires. If you do not 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 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 electricity provider will handle everything for you, including canceling service with your previous company.

Your lights stay on when you switch. Electricity in Holiday Lakes 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 termination” penalty. Texas law protects you here.

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’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

Holiday Lakes was developed in the 1960s as a master-planned lakefront community by the Friendswood Development Company, which was owned by Exxon Corporation. The community was designed around a series of interconnected lakes and waterways, making it one of the first planned waterfront residential developments in the greater Houston area during the post-war suburban boom.

RECENT

In 2017, Holiday Lakes faced significant challenges during Hurricane Harvey when the community experienced unprecedented flooding that damaged over 80% of the homes. The resilient community has since rebuilt stronger, with many residents choosing to elevate their homes and the city implementing new flood mitigation measures including improved drainage systems.

OTHER

FAMOUS PEOPLE/EVENTS: Holiday Lakes has been a popular filming location for several independent Texas films due to its scenic lakefront properties and small-town charm. The community's unique layout of homes built around natural and man-made lakes has attracted location scouts looking for authentic suburban waterfront settings that represent the Texas Gulf Coast lifestyle.

DID YOU KNOW

Holiday Lakes is one of the few cities in Texas where residents can literally boat from their backyard to the local marina and community center. The city was built with a network of navigable canals and lakes that connect most waterfront properties, meaning many residents use small boats or kayaks as a primary means of transportation within the community, especially during community events and festivals.

OTHER

CULTURAL/UNIQUE: The city maintains a strong tradition of water-based community events, including an annual boat parade during the holidays where residents decorate their watercraft with lights and cruise through the canal system. Holiday Lakes also has one of the most active homeowners' associations in Brazoria County, organizing regular lake clean-up days, fishing tournaments, and waterfront social gatherings that bring together the tight-knit community of just over 1,100 residents.
