Why Use SlashPlan To Compare Electricity Rates in Santa Elena?

Many consumers don’t know that the power to choose energy is in their own hands. We can’t blame them though, many new residents are moving to The Lonestar State from regulated energy markets.

Electricity companies are there to make a profit, and they will use different methods to charge you more. They use difficult-to-understand pricing tiers and terminology that is now known to the average consumer.

It’s extremely difficult and time-consuming to find the absolute best price without using a sophisticated comparison service like SlashPlan has to offer.

Let me present you with a common scenario that we see all the time:

Assuming you narrowed down your search to 2 energy companies (Company A & Company B) that both advertise a price of 10¢ per Kilowatt Hour (kWh). You might think that since both companies offer the same price, your bill would be the same. But it wouldn’t!

A standard practice in the energy industry is to offer Tiered Pricing.

This means that you will only pay the advertised rate if your monthly usage is within the specified tier.

Going back to our scenario, it would look something like this:

Company A offers the advertised rate when your monthly usage is ABOVE 2000 kWh.

Company B offers this price when your monthly usage is UNDER 1000 kWh.

If we go back and repeat the same question. Who offers a better rate?

The truth is, you can’t determine that without looking at a few other parameters…

Your bill price will be determined by various parameters such as monthly usage, base charges, usage credits, discounts, time of usage, and more…

Estimating your final bill is impossible without taking all of these charges and credits into consideration.

That’s where SlashPlan comes in to help!

We show you the actual, all-inclusive prices that you can expect to pay on your bill. No hidden charges or surprises!

The best way to shop for electricity is to see all your options in one place, where all the fees and discounts are already included in the final price.

Using our free service, you can now easily find this information in a matter of seconds!

With our comparison service, you can finally sort and filter plans to match your specific criteria. The best options will show on top of the list by default.

The rates we display on SlashPlan are the rates you’ll actually experience on your bill, inclusive of all hidden fees. We make sure that you’re not misled by the cheaper rates often advertised by electric providers… those advertised rates are associated with higher usage levels that many households never enjoy because their usage level never reaches that pricing tier.

SlashPlan has your back! We level the playing field and make shopping for cheap energy rates accessible and easy for everybody!

We’ll provide you with all the necessary details, showing you the best deals from the most respected, reputable providers in your area offering the best rates, terms, and customer satisfaction.

How To Find A Reliable Electricity Company in Santa Elena?

It’s important to understand that when you sign up for service, your are enrolling with a Retail Electric Provider. Your provider is not in charge of servicing and maintaining your energy infrastructure, and they are not the ones that will fix blackouts or outages. Maintenance is done by a seprate utility company, also called a “TDSP”.

That’s confusing, right?

In order for energy prices to stay low and competitive, law-makers in Texas decided to eliminate monopolies by not allowing the TDSP’s to sell energy directly to the end-users.

So the Retail Providers sell you the electricity, but the TDSP’s are the ones delivering that electricity to your home or business, and maintaining the infrastructure, such as power lines and poles.

If you have a power outage, or have an issue with your meter, you will need to contact the utility company that services your area.

There are 5 main utility companies in Texas. Determine which utility company services your area.

Why should I care about this anyway?

This means that the power that you receive to your home or business is literally all the same. Regardless of which company sells it to you. There is only 1 utility company that services your address, and they are the only company that delivers electricity to you.

So what’s the difference between all the other energy companies?

The main differences are that they offer different plans, structures, and prices.

Some providers only offer green plans, others include no-deposit plans, etc…

If prices are the same, then the main differences that you should pay attention to are the provider’s customer service, early cancellation policy, and ease of communication.

When you sign up for a new plan using SlashPlan, you can be confident that you’re getting a great deal, and will sign up with a reputable power supplier that has a proven track record of competitive prices and superb customer support.

Top 4 Things To Consider When Signing Up

Deciding on a new plan? Here are the top things to consider:

Your monthly usage – Having your 12-month usage history will allow you to find the best plan for your usage habits.

Rate Type – Some people prefer a long-term peace of mind that comes with a Fixed Rate plan. Others prefer a more dynamic, sometimes lower rate that changes monthly according to the Electricity Price Index.

Term Length – 12 months is a standard enrollment term. If prices are low right now, take advantage of the low rates and lock-in a fixed price for 24 months or more!

Green Energy – How important is it to you? Would you like to help the environment by signing up for a Green Energy Plan?
