How do I know if my Texas electricity rate is too high?

Divide last month's energy charge by your kWh used to get your real ¢/kWh, then compare it to the cheapest plan at that same usage. The Bill Analyzer does this automatically: enter your ZIP and usage and it re-prices every plan in your area at your real usage, not the advertised 1,000 kWh rate.

Is the bill checkup free?

Yes. It is 100% free, needs no sign-up, and gives an instant answer. It uses the same daily-updated Power to Choose / EFL data and linear-interpolation method as the rest of TexasPowerCost.com.

What does the verdict mean?

You get exactly one plain-English verdict. "Switch" means a standard fixed-rate plan would save you at least $100/yr net at your usage. "Wait" means no switch clears that bar right now (or you're near renewal). "Verify first" means we need your current plan or bill — or your plan is time-of-use — before giving a personal answer.

Does this include TDU delivery charges?

The comparison is energy-only, like the rest of the site. TDU delivery charges are identical for every provider in your ZIP, so they never change which plan is cheapest — but they are a real part of your total bill. Always confirm the full cost on each plan's official Electricity Facts Label before enrolling.
