Ennis Electricity Providers
We’ve compared rates and plans from 20 retail electricity providers (REPs) serving Ennis’s Oncor territory.

Ennis Business Electricity Rates
Ennis — the Bluebonnet City of Texas — has a growing economy built on its Ellis County location, NHRA drag racing heritage, and proximity to the DFW metroplex. Whether you run a shop on Ennis Avenue, a business near the Texas Motorplex, or a service operation, you can shop dozens of providers for the best commercial rate.
Unlike residential plans with standardized pricing tiers, Ennis commercial electricity rates are custom-quoted based on your business’s usage profile, demand patterns, and contract terms. That means a 3-minute quote request can unlock business rates you’d never see on a residential comparison page.
How to Get or Switch Ennis Electricity
Whether you’re moving to Ennis or switching from an existing provider, the process is the same and takes about five minutes. Your new retail provider handles the coordination with Oncor — you don’t need to call anyone else, and there’s zero interruption to your power.
-
Confirm Your Address & Check Your Contract
Enter your ZIP code to verify your address is in Oncor’s deregulated territory. Ennis and surrounding Ellis County communities qualify. If you’re switching from an existing plan, check your contract end date and early-termination fee — most ETFs are $50–$200, and you can switch penalty-free within 14 days of your contract end.
-
Compare Plans
Shop rates from 20 providers. Compare at your actual usage level: apartments around 500 kWh, average homes 1,000–1,300 kWh, larger homes 2,000+ kWh. If you’re on an old plan or rolled onto a variable rate, switching could save $30–$65 per month.
-
Sign Up
Enroll online or by phone. You’ll need your service address, preferred start date, and a government ID. Your new provider files a switch request with ERCOT and Oncor, and service transfers on your next meter-read date — typically 1–3 business days. No one visits your home and the lights stay on the entire time.
Moving to Ennis?
Schedule your electricity at least 5 business days before your move-in date to ensure power is on when you arrive — especially important during the hot summer months. Many providers offer same-day or next-day activation for an additional fee if you’re in a time crunch.
Ennis Solar
Ennis gets about 5 peak sun hours per day. At the local average rate of 14.0¢/kWh, here's what a typical 7 kW rooftop system looks like.
Texas context: 152,730 homes in the state have already installed rooftop solar (1,149 MW of residential capacity).
Estimate assumes a 7 kW system at $2.75/watt and an 80% performance ratio. Over 25 years the system would net roughly $16,625 after its net cost. Run your exact address →
