Yes — most Strawn 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.

It changes with your usage. The lowest effective rate we price in Strawn today is 8.2¢ 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 Strawn

#1 rule: Determine what your usage is!

Knowing how much electricity you will use month-to-month is the best way to find a deal on power in Strawn. Why is this important?

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

Every plan has a different calculation for how your monthly statement is determined, and your monthly bill will change according to how much electricity you consume each month.

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

Thankfully, there’s a better way to choose your energy rate.

Calculating your expected 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 you.

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 find your home’s ideal energy rate plan.

Compare Power does all this math for you instantly. What could take you hours on a spreadsheet is done in a few moments.

We put you in the driver’s seat, taking what would amount to hours of investigation, spreadsheets, and computations across hundreds of plans to guide you to the best electricity plan for your household’s consumption.

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

We then assist you in enrolling with your selected power provider without ever having to leave our service.

The takeaway here is you should 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.

While not as optimal as having all the previous 12 months of usage, estimating your average usage is better than blindly picking the first plan you see advertised by an electricity provider at a specific usage that isn’t what you’ll consume.

Use Compare Power to shop for the best electricity plan for your specific usage.

Moving to Strawn: Setting up Electricity

If this is your first time setting up electricity service in Strawn, 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 renewing your existing plan or possibly switching plans.

Switching Electricity Companies in Strawn

Switching is good. Market conditions constantly change, so you must shop for a lower rate each year when your contract expires.

Your existing electricity company will typically raise your energy rate once your term 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 providers.

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 switch, your new energy company will cover everything, including terminating service with your previous provider.

Your lights stay on when you switch. Electricity in Strawn 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 cancellation” fee. Texas law protects you here.

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 providers may outweigh the fee of breaking your existing contract.

If you’re ready to switch and want 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 your household’s best plan with the lowest rate.

Strawn Electricity Rates FAQs

Did You Know?

HISTORICAL

Strawn was founded in 1881 as a coal mining town along the Texas and Pacific Railway, named after Bethel Strawn, a Pennsylvania coal operator who invested heavily in the area's mining operations. The town became one of the most important coal mining centers in Texas, with mines producing high-quality bituminous coal that powered locomotives and heated homes across the Southwest until the 1920s.

RECENT

In 2020, Strawn made national headlines when their six-man football team won the UIL Division II state championship, capping off a perfect 15-0 season. The Strawn Greyhounds' victory was particularly remarkable because the entire team consisted of just 11 players, meaning most played both offense and defense throughout the grueling playoff run.

FAMOUS PEOPLE

Strawn is the hometown of legendary Texas high school football coach Gordon Wood, who won more games than any other high school football coach in American history with 396 victories. Wood coached at Strawn High School in the 1940s before moving on to larger schools, but he always credited his time in Strawn as foundational to developing his innovative coaching philosophy that would later bring nine state championships.

DID YOU KNOW

Strawn is home to one of the last remaining company houses from the Texas coal mining era, which has been converted into a museum that still contains original mining equipment and personal belongings left behind by miners' families. The house even has coal dust embedded in the wooden floors that visitors can still see today, providing a tangible connection to the town's industrial past over a century later.

CULTURAL

Strawn has become legendary in Texas for its six-man football tradition, a unique variant of American football played with six players per side instead of eleven, designed for small rural schools. The town's football field is considered hallowed ground in six-man football circles, and the annual homecoming game draws visitors from across Texas who come to experience this distinctly rural Texas tradition that emphasizes speed, strategy, and every player touching the ball.
