How to Find the Best Energy Plan in Little Elm

#1 rule: Usage is key!

Discovering the amount of electricity you will consume each month is the ideal way to shop for energy in Little Elm. Why is this so vital?

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

Every plan has a different equation for how your monthly statement is computed, and your monthly bill will be determined by how much electricity you use each 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.

Thankfully, there’s a better way to choose your electricity plan.

Calculating your total monthly bill based on expected 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 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 right electricity rate plan for your home.

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

We put you in the driver’s seat, taking what would amount to hours of research, spreadsheets, and computations across hundreds of plans and guide you step-by-step to the energy rate plan that’s best for your household’s usage.

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

We then help you enroll with your chosen energy company without ever having to leave our website.

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

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 energy plan for your specific usage.

Moving to Little Elm: Setting up Electricity

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

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 Little Elm

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

Your existing energy company will typically raise your energy rate once your term expires. If you fail to act, 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 electricity companies.

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

Switching is easy:

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

When you decide to switch, your new electricity company will handle everything for you, including canceling service with your previous company.

There is no loss of power when you switch. Electricity in Little Elm 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 companies. Therefore the reliability of your service is not affected.

You can pick any date up to 14 days early from your current contract’s end date without an “early termination” fee. 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 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 would like to know how to find the best plan remember that understanding your usage is the best way to find the 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 must collect the usage history for the past 12 months.

Little Elm Electricity Rates FAQs

Did You Know?

HISTORICAL

Little Elm was founded in the 1840s and named after a small elm tree that served as a landmark for travelers crossing the area. The town remained a tiny farming community for over a century until the construction of Lewisville Lake in the 1950s transformed it from agricultural land into a lakeside destination that would eventually fuel massive residential growth.

RECENT

Between 2010 and 2020, Little Elm was one of the fastest-growing cities in Texas, with its population exploding from about 25,000 to over 55,000 residents. This incredible 120% growth rate was driven by major residential developments and the city's strategic location between Dallas and Denton, making it a prime suburb for commuters seeking lakefront living.

OTHER

FAMOUS PEOPLE/EVENTS: Little Elm is home to several Dallas Cowboys players who have chosen to live in the lakeside community, including former offensive lineman Tyron Smith who built a custom home overlooking Lewisville Lake. The city also hosts the annual Little Elm Triathlon, which attracts professional athletes from across the region and has become one of North Texas's premier endurance events.

DID YOU KNOW

Little Elm sits on the shores of Lewisville Lake, which is actually a man-made reservoir that covers what was once fertile farmland and several small communities. When the lake was filled in the 1950s, it submerged an entire town called Garza, and during severe droughts, the foundations of old buildings and roads from the ghost town sometimes become visible above the waterline.

CULTURAL

Little Elm has earned the nickname 'The Lakeside Community' and is unique among Dallas suburbs for having over 66 miles of shoreline along Lewisville Lake. The city has embraced its aquatic identity so thoroughly that nearly every major residential development includes waterfront access, and the city's official logo features a sailboat, reflecting how water recreation has become central to the community's identity and lifestyle.
