Yes — most Holliday 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 Holliday 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 Holliday

#1 rule: Know your usage!

Determining the amount of electricity you will consume month-to-month is the ideal way to shop for energy in Holliday. Why does this matter?

The “price per kWh” you see electricity companies advertising is for an exact monthly usage (typically 1000 kWh).

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

Unless you use exactly the advertised amount each month, you will end up paying an effective “price per kWh” different than what you saw when you signed up.

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

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

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 months and is the ideal way to find the perfect electricity plan for your home.

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

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 electricity rate plan that’s best for your home’s usage.

We clarify the details, 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 enrolling with your selected power provider without leaving our service.

The takeaway here is you should understand your expected or historical usage before picking 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 find the best electricity plan for your**specific usage.

Moving to Holliday: Setting up electricity

If this is your first time setting up electricity service in Holliday, 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 can’t obtain a usage history, you can estimate your monthly usage instead. Utilize our “Help Me Choose” tool when you enter your zip code below, and we’ll help you evaluate your home’s usage.

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 Holliday

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

Your existing energy provider will typically raise your electricity rate once your contract 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, shop the rates of competing electricity companies.

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

Switching is easy:

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

Your lights stay on when you switch. Electricity in Holliday 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 energy providers. 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 cancellation” penalty. That’s Texas Law.

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 providers may outweigh the fee to break your existing contract.

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 find your historical usage for the last 12 months to determine your household’s best plan with the lowest rate.

Did You Know?

HISTORICAL

Holliday was founded in 1882 when the Fort Worth and Denver Railway came through the area, and it was named after John Holliday, a railroad official who helped establish the town. The community quickly became a shipping point for cattle and cotton from the surrounding ranches and farms, serving as a vital link between rural North Texas and major markets.

RECENT

In 2020, Holliday ISD completed construction of a new $18 million high school facility that serves as a regional educational hub for surrounding rural communities. The state-of-the-art campus includes advanced technology labs, a competition-grade gymnasium, and agricultural facilities that support the area's strong farming and ranching heritage.

FAMOUS PEOPLE

Holliday was the childhood home of legendary country music songwriter Red Lane, who penned numerous hits for Merle Haggard including 'The Fugitive' and 'If We Make It Through December.' Lane grew up on a farm outside Holliday in the 1940s and often credited his small-town Texas upbringing for inspiring his authentic country music storytelling style.

DID YOU KNOW

Holliday is home to one of the last remaining original Santa Fe Railway depots in North Texas, built in 1910 and still standing on Main Street. The depot served as the town's lifeline to the outside world for decades, and local legend claims that notorious outlaw Bonnie Parker once waited for a train there in 1933 while on the run with Clyde Barrow, though historians debate the veracity of this story.

CULTURAL

Every October, Holliday hosts the annual 'Holliday Fun Day Festival' which features the unique tradition of the 'Cow Patty Bingo' game, where numbered squares are painted on a field and a cow is released to 'choose' the winning square. The festival also includes a parade of vintage tractors and farm equipment, celebrating the town's agricultural roots and drawing visitors from across North Texas to experience authentic small-town culture.
