Griddy Energy electric choice in Texas The power to choose electricity plans came to residents of Texas in 2002. The state legislature passed laws that deregulated the energy industry and resulted in hundreds of providers entering the market. Energy prices became competitive to attract consumers. There has never been a better time to choose a new provider.

Compare Power, established in 2009, is a helpful tool that allows you to compare the rates and plans that companies are offering in your area. Normally this would take you hours of work, but Compare Power does the necessary research in minutes to help you save money.

The quoted rates on Compare Power include base rates, fees, and taxes to help customers see the true costs of energy. This commitment to transparency helps users plan their budgets and avoid billing gimmicks.

Compare Griddy Energy rates with competing Texas energy plans Griddy Energy is a California-based energy provider that serves the state of Texas. This retail provider was certified by the Public Utilities Commission of Texas in 2017. Griddy sells wholesale electricity directly to customers in deregulated power markets for a monthly fixed fee.

Griddy offers a prepaid variable rate plan. For a $9.99 monthly fee, you can get access to wholesale electricity pricing.

Playing the wholesale market is a huge gamble as the wholesale price of electricity fluctuates wildly based on a number of factors, including weather, maintenance issues and the time of day, leaving consumers vulnerable when prices skyrocket during peak conditions.

The bottom line is when you need electricity the most, you pay the highest price. Most people prefer predictability and stability in their energy. The best way to have a predictable energy bill is to lock in a fixed-rate and not gamble by guessing what the wholesale price of electricity will be in the future.

Compare Power lets you find and compare low fixed-rate plans from multiple Texas electricity providers, ensuring you are getting the best rate possible for the term of your contract.

The rates presented here are updated live 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

The #1 most important thing: Know your usage!

The key to avoid overpaying is knowing your expected usage and comparing monthly costs for each plan based on that usage amount.

With things like gasoline, the “price per gallon” you see on the sign is the price you pay no matter how many gallons you pump.

$3 per gallon. Pump 10 gallons, pay $30. Simple.

Electricity in Texas is not as simple as buying gasoline. The advertised “price per kWh” is based on a specific, exact monthly usage (usually 2000 kWh).

And, each plan has a different calculation for how your monthly bill is determined.

Your effective “price per kWh” can only be determined by calculating your monthly bill, then dividing that monthly bill by your usage.

Advertised “price per kWh” can be misleading because it’s based on a specific usage like 2000 kWh. It’s best to shop based on the total bill for your home’s expected usage.

How do you do that when the math is complicated, and every plan is a little different?

Compare Power has already done all this complicated math for you.

First, we help you determine your expected monthly kWh usage. Then we show you the plans and their total monthly cost for your usage.

Griddy Energy reviews Looking for ratings and reviews for Griddy Energy?

Several companies rate electricity providers. Compare Power does not include customer reviews as they are generally biased or easy to manipulate and skew one way or the other (positive or negative).

Often, a review is requested a mere few days after enrolling in a new energy plan, which may not be an adequate amount of time for a customer to experience the product or service.

Many customers who take the time to leave feedback typically do so as an effort to resolve a problem and are using negative feedback as a forum to draw attention to their issue.

Customers who leave positive reviews are generally incentivized to do so and therefore tend to be biased.

So what are we left with? There are a few long-standing customer review portals that attempt to remove bias. One of these is the Better Business Bureau and the other is the Public Utility Commision of Texas. Neither site had reviews or complaints about Griddy Energy as of May 2018.
