Are there renewable energy plans in Allen?

How much are electricity delivery charges in Allen?

In Allen, Oncor Electric Delivery delivery charges are regulated by the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) and apply uniformly to all customers.

The Electricity Facts Label (EFL) for every plan shows the exact split between supply costs and Oncor Electric Delivery’s delivery fees.

Should I choose a fixed or variable rate plan in Allen?

A fixed-rate plan in Allen locks your per-kWh supply rate for the contract term, shielding you from ERCOT wholesale price swings. Variable plans may start lower but can increase monthly without notice. With Allen fixed rates starting at 5.2¢/kWh, locking in during mild-weather months gives most households more predictable bills and lower overall costs.
