Showing the 20 cheapest Forney electricity plans based on 1,000 kWh usage.
Forney Utilities
No matter which retail provider you pick, the poles, wires, and meters in Forney are owned and maintained by one company — and they handle every outage.
Oncor Electric Delivery serves about 3,936,107 customers across North & Central Texas, including Forney. The typical Oncor customer sees roughly 0.9 outages per year, each lasting about 107 minutes.
Forney Electric Bills
At Forney’s average rate of 13.7¢/kWh, here’s what a typical home pays across the year — and where that electricity is generated on ERCOT — the Texas grid.
Estimated monthly bill across the year
A typical Forney home’s bill ranges from about $111 in Mar to $234 in Aug — summer air conditioning is the single biggest driver. Locking in a low fixed rate before summer is the easiest way to blunt the Aug spike.
Forney Power Generation
Monthly bills are modeled from the local average rate and a regional seasonal usage profile; your actual usage will vary.
Forney Grid Status
Forney Electricity Costs at Every Usage Tier
The average Forney home uses about 1,100–1,300 kWh per month, driven by the city’s larger new-construction homes and North Texas summers that regularly push past 100°F. Choosing the right plan at your actual usage level is critical. Below are the best Forney plans at four common usage tiers, updated daily.

Forney’s New-Build Energy Reality
Forney’s newer homes are well-insulated and energy-efficient, but they’re also larger than the Texas average — many in Devonshire, Mustang Crossing, and Heritage Ranch are 2,200–3,500 sq ft. That means higher overall usage despite better insulation. Expect summer bills to run 1.5–2.5x your spring usage when North Texas hits 100°F+. Compare plans at BOTH 1,000 kWh and 2,000 kWh to avoid bill shock.
