Yes — most Yantis 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 Yantis 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 Yantis

#1 rule: Know your usage!

Discovering how much energy you will use each month is the best way to find a deal on energy in Yantis. Why should you care?

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

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

Unless you match the exact advertised usage 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 energy provider.

Calculating your total monthly bill based on expected monthly usage, then comparing options by the total monthly bill is the best way to shop for the lowest rate for your home.

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 determine the ideal energy plan for your home.

Compare Power does all this math for you in an instant. What takes hours on a spreadsheet is now solved in just seconds.

We put the power in your hands, taking what would amount to hours of research, spreadsheets, and computations across hundreds of plans and assisting you step-by-step with 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 anticipate on your bill.

We then assist you in signing up with your selected power company without leaving our website.

The bottom line is you should determine your expected or historical usage before ordering 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 shop for the best energy plan for your specific usage.

Moving to Yantis: Setting up Electricity

If this is your first time setting up electricity service in Yantis, 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 in minutes through Compare Power. We will remind you when it’s time to return to switch and save at the end of the plan length you decide on.

Switching Electricity Companies in Yantis

Switching is good. Market conditions are constantly 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 generally 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, shop 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 contact 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 decide to switch, your new energy provider will take care of everything for you, including canceling service with your previous company.

Your lights stay on when you switch. Electricity in Yantis 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 providers. Therefore the reliability of your service is not affected.

You can choose any date within 14 days of your contract expiration without an “early termination” penalty. That’s Texas Law.

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.

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

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 rate.

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

Yantis Electricity Rates FAQs

Did You Know?

HISTORICAL

Yantis was founded in 1878 when the International-Great Northern Railroad came through the area, establishing a depot and naming the town after railroad official P.R. Yantis. The small community grew as a timber and farming center, with the railroad bringing prosperity to what had been dense East Texas forest land inhabited mainly by Cherokee and Caddo tribes.

RECENT

In 2019, Yantis completed a major waterfront improvement project along Lake Fork, one of Texas's premier bass fishing destinations. The city invested in new boat ramps, fishing piers, and RV facilities to better serve the thousands of anglers who visit annually, significantly boosting the local tourism economy.

OTHER

FAMOUS PEOPLE/EVENTS: Yantis has become legendary in the bass fishing world as the gateway to Lake Fork, which has produced more ShareLunker bass (over 13 pounds) than any other Texas lake. Professional anglers like Mark Davis and Kelly Jordon have won major tournaments here, and the annual Bassmaster events draw fishing celebrities and ESPN coverage to this tiny town.

DID YOU KNOW

Despite having fewer than 400 residents, Yantis is home to more than 20 fishing guide services and tackle shops, creating one of the highest ratios of fishing businesses to population in America. On busy tournament weekends, the town's population can swell to over 5,000 people, with bass boats outnumbering cars on the streets by a significant margin.

CULTURAL

Yantis has embraced its identity as the 'Bass Capital of Texas' so completely that the city's water tower is painted to look like a giant fishing bobber, and street signs throughout town feature bass silhouettes. The annual Lake Fork Championship brings together fishing enthusiasts from across the nation, turning this quiet East Texas community into a bustling hub of competitive angling and outdoor recreation.
