Yes — most Malone 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 Malone 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 Malone

#1 rule: Usage is key!

Determining the amount of energy you will consume monthly is the ideal way to find a deal on energy in Malone. Why is this so vital?

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

Every plan has a different equation for how your monthly bill is computed, and your monthly bill will vary depending on how much power you use each month.

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

Thankfully, there’s a better way to select your energy company.

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

Better still, if you have a year 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 absolute best way to discover the perfect energy plan for your home.

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

We put the power in your hands, taking what would amount to hours of investigation, spreadsheets, and calculations across hundreds of plans and navigating you step-by-step to the electricity rate plan that’s best for your home’s usage.

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

We then help you sign up with your chosen energy provider without leaving our service.

The bottom line is you must understand your expected or historical usage before choosing the best electricity 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 your average energy 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 Malone: Setting up Electricity

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

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

Your existing electricity provider will typically raise your electricity rate once your term expires. If you fail to 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 energy providers.

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 provider 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 switch, your new energy provider will handle everything for you, including terminating service with your previous company.

Your lights stay on when you switch. Electricity in Malone 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” penalty. 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 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.

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.

Malone Electricity Rates FAQs

Did You Know?

HISTORICAL

Malone was established in 1881 as a railroad town along the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railroad, commonly known as the 'Katy.' The town was named after Pat Malone, a railroad construction foreman who supervised the laying of tracks through this section of Hill County, and it quickly became a vital shipping point for local cotton farmers.

RECENT

In 2020, Malone completed a major infrastructure upgrade that brought high-speed fiber internet to all residents and businesses in the city. This $2.3 million project made Malone one of the smallest cities in Texas to offer gigabit internet speeds, attracting several remote workers and small tech businesses to relocate to the area.

FAMOUS PEOPLE

Country music songwriter Red Lane, who penned hits like 'The World Needs a Melody' for Loretta Lynn and 'Tell Me My Lying Eyes Are Wrong' for George Jones, was born and raised in Malone. Lane wrote over 400 songs during his career and was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1993.

DID YOU KNOW

Malone holds the unusual distinction of being the smallest incorporated city in Texas to have its own municipal airport with a paved runway. The Malone Municipal Airport was built in 1943 as a training facility for World War II pilots and still operates today, serving crop dusters and private aircraft despite the town's population of fewer than 300 people.

CULTURAL

Every October, Malone hosts the annual 'Katy Days' festival celebrating its railroad heritage, complete with a vintage train car display and model railroad exhibition. The festival features the famous 'Smallest Parade in Texas,' which typically consists of just three floats, the high school marching band, and the volunteer fire truck, but draws visitors from across Hill County who come to experience small-town Texas charm.
