It changes with your usage. The lowest effective rate we price in Woodson today is 6.6¢ 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 Woodson

#1 rule: Usage is king!

Discovering how much electricity you will use in a month is the best way to shop for electricity in Woodson. Why does this matter?

You see power companies advertising the “price per kWh” for an exact monthly usage (usually 1000 kWh).

Every plan uses a different calculation for how your monthly statement is determined, and your monthly bill will vary depending on how much electricity you use in the 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.

Fortunately, there’s a better way to pick your electricity provider.

Calculating your expected monthly bill based on anticipated monthly usage, then comparing rates 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 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 determine the ideal electricity rate plan for your home.

Compare Power does all this math for you instantly. What could take you hours inside a spreadsheet is now done in seconds.

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

We clarify the details, disclosing all fees, so you’ll know precisely where your money is going and what to anticipate on your monthly bill.

We then help you sign up with your chosen electricity provider without leaving our website.

The takeaway here is you should determine your expected or historical usage before ordering 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 Woodson: Setting up Electricity

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

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

Your existing energy provider will generally raise your electricity rate once your term expires. If you do not 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 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 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 switch, your new energy company will handle everything, including canceling service with your previous provider.

Your lights stay on when you switch. Electricity in Woodson 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 choose any date within 14 days of your contract expiration without an “early cancellation” penalty. 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.

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.

Woodson Electricity Rates FAQs

Did You Know?

HISTORICAL

Woodson was established in 1881 as a railroad town along the Texas Central Railroad line, named after railroad surveyor B.F. Woodson. The town served as a crucial shipping point for cattle ranchers in the region, with the railroad bringing prosperity and growth to what was previously open rangeland in Throckmorton County.

RECENT

In 2020, Woodson completed a major infrastructure upgrade project that brought high-speed fiber internet to the entire community, making it one of the smallest towns in Texas to achieve full fiber coverage. This digital transformation has attracted several remote workers and small tech businesses to relocate to the area, breathing new life into the rural community.

FAMOUS PEOPLE

Country music songwriter Red Lane, who penned hits for Merle Haggard including 'The Fugitive' and 'If We Make It Through December,' was born and raised in Woodson. Lane's songs earned multiple Grammy nominations and helped define the Bakersfield sound of country music in the 1970s and 1980s.

DID YOU KNOW

Woodson holds the unusual distinction of being the only town in Texas where the entire main street was once moved three blocks north in 1923 due to frequent flooding from a nearby creek. The entire business district, including buildings, was literally relocated using teams of mules and wooden rollers, a feat that took nearly two years to complete.

CULTURAL

Every October, Woodson hosts the annual 'Pumpkin Days Festival' where the entire population of 250 residents works together to create the world's longest pumpkin pie, stretching over 100 feet down Main Street. The tradition began in 1995 when a local farmer had an exceptionally large pumpkin harvest, and the community decided to make something memorable with the surplus.
