Your delivery utility

Who delivers electricity in Saginaw

Oncor owns and maintains the poles, wires, and meters in Saginaw. Whichever plan you pick, Oncor still delivers the power and restores outages — switching providers never changes your wires. Every price on this page already includes Oncor delivery charges. If a rate elsewhere looks lower, check whether delivery is in it yet.

Quick answers

Saginaw electricity questions, answered

As of August 2026, plans we offer in the Oncor territory average 15.3¢ per kWh at 1,000 kWh of monthly use, and today’s lowest effective rate is 6.8¢. Advertised rates move with your usage, so price plans at your own numbers.

Oncor is Saginaw’s transmission and delivery utility. It owns the wires and meters and restores outages. You choose your retail electricity provider; Oncor delivers no matter who you pick.

Yes — most Saginaw 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 Saginaw 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.

We currently price 122 plans in Saginaw, every one from a PUCT-licensed provider we work with, priced with delivery included.

How to Find the Best Energy Plan in Saginaw

#1 rule: Usage is king!

Knowing the amount of electricity you will use each month is the ideal way to find a deal on electricity in Saginaw. Why should you care?

The rate electricity companies advertise is for an exact monthly usage (usually 2000 kWh).

Every plan has a different calculation for how your monthly bill is determined, and your monthly bill will vary depending on how much power you consume in a month.

Unless you use the advertised amount each month, you will pay a “price per kWh” different than what you saw when you ordered.

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

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

Better yet, 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 best way to discover the ideal energy plan for your home.

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

We put the power in your hands, taking what would amount to hours of investigation, spreadsheets, and computations across hundreds of plans and assisting you step-by-step with the best electricity plan for your household’s usage.

We clarify the details, disclosing all fees, so you’ll know exactly where your money goes and what to expect on your bill.

We then assist you in signing up with your chosen power company 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

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 shop for the best electricity plan for your specific usage.

Moving to Saginaw: Setting up Electricity

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

It may take some effort to acquire usage for the past 12 months, 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.

Sign-up for a plan instantly through Compare Power. We will remind you when it’s time to come back to switch and save at the end of the plan term you decide on.

Switching Electricity Companies in Saginaw

Switching is good. Market conditions are constantly in flux, so shopping for a lower rate every year when your contract expires is essential.

Your existing energy provider will typically raise your energy 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, 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 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 company will handle everything, including terminating service with your previous provider.

Your lights stay on when you switch. Electricity in Saginaw 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 electricity companies. 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, check how many months remain on your contract. You can set a future start date with most providers up to 6o days in advance.

And even if you’re well inside your contract, savings achieved on your monthly bill by switching companies may outweigh the fee of breaking your existing contract.

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.

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

HISTORICAL

Saginaw was founded in 1882 as a railroad town along the Fort Worth and Denver Railway, originally named after Saginaw, Michigan, the hometown of one of the early railroad officials. The community grew around the railroad depot and cattle shipping operations, serving as a vital link between Fort Worth and points north during the late 19th century cattle boom.

RECENT

In 2020, Saginaw completed construction of its new $18 million municipal complex that consolidated city hall, police, fire, and municipal court services under one roof. The modern facility replaced aging buildings scattered throughout the city and features energy-efficient design and advanced emergency response capabilities for the growing northwest Tarrant County community.

FAMOUS PEOPLE

Country music star Pat Green, known as the 'King of Texas Country Music,' spent part of his childhood in Saginaw before moving to other parts of Texas. Green has sold over 2 million albums and is credited with helping launch the Red Dirt/Texas Country music movement that dominated Texas music scenes in the 1990s and 2000s.
