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 Leakey today is 7.0¢ 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 Leakey

#1 rule: Usage is king!

Knowing the amount of electricity you will use in a month is the ideal way to shop for electricity in Leakey. Why does this matter?

The rate you see energy companies advertising is for an exact monthly usage (typically 2000 kWh).

Every plan has a different calculation for how your monthly statement is determined, and your monthly bill will be determined by how much power you use in a month.

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

Fortunately, there’s a better way to choose your electricity company.

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

Better yet, if you have 12 months of usage history for your home, 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 could take you hours on a spreadsheet is solved briefly.

We put the power in your hands, taking what would amount to hours of research, spreadsheets, and calculations across hundreds of offers and guide you step-by-step to the electricity plan that’s best for your household’s usage.

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

We then assist you in ordering your plan with your selected energy provider without ever having to leave our website.

The takeaway here is you must know your expected or historical usage before selecting 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 own 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 Leakey: Setting up Electricity

If this is your first time setting up electricity service in Leakey, 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 it’s time to renew your existing plan or possibly switch plans.

Switching Electricity Companies in Leakey

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 electricity provider will normally 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 higher than the plan you signed up for.

Before renewing your contract, check the rates of competing energy companies.

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

Switching is easy:

  • You don’t have to contact your current provider to cancel (no “break-up call”)
  • No one comes to your home
  • There is no disruption in your power supply
  • It takes just minutes

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

There is no loss of power when you switch. Electricity in Leakey 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 pick any date within 14 days of your contract expiration without an “early termination” 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.

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 would like to know how to find the best plan remember that knowing your usage is the best way to find the lowest price.

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

Leakey Electricity Rates FAQs

Did You Know?

HISTORICAL

Leakey was founded in 1883 by John Leakey, a former Texas Ranger and Confederate veteran who established a general store and post office along the Frio River. The town became a vital supply point for ranchers and travelers crossing the rugged Hill Country terrain, serving as one of the last outposts before entering the vast wilderness of Southwest Texas.

RECENT

In 2020, Leakey completed a major downtown revitalization project that restored several historic limestone buildings dating back to the early 1900s. The project included the renovation of the old Leakey General Store into a visitor center and museum, helping to boost tourism along the scenic Frio River corridor.

OTHER

FAMOUS PEOPLE/EVENTS: Leakey serves as the gateway to Garner State Park, one of Texas's most popular state parks, which has hosted millions of visitors since 1941. The park became famous in the 1950s and 1960s when it was featured in several Western films, and country music stars like Hank Williams Jr. and George Strait have performed at the park's outdoor pavilion.

DID YOU KNOW

Leakey sits at the exact geographic center of the 'Lost Maples' ecosystem, where bigtooth maple trees create spectacular fall foliage displays that rival New England's autumn colors. These rare maple groves are found in only a few locations in Texas, making Leakey one of the southernmost places in America where you can experience true fall colors, with some trees turning brilliant red and orange in late October.

CULTURAL

Leakey is known as the 'Sweater Capital of Texas' because its elevation of 1,600 feet and location in the Hill Country creates a unique microclimate where temperatures can drop 15-20 degrees cooler than surrounding areas. Local residents joke that Leakey is the only place in Texas where you might need a jacket in July, and the town celebrates this distinction with an annual 'Sweater Weather Festival' each October.
