Fort Worth Electricity FAQ
Common questions about electricity rates, plans, and providers in Fort Worth and Tarrant County.
Does Fort Worth have electricity choice?
Yes, most Fort Worth homes pick their own retail electricity provider. How electricity works in Fort Worth:
- The grid: ERCOT, which covers most of Texas.
- Power lines, meters and outage repairs: Oncor.
- The electricity and your bill: a retail provider you choose.
- Part of Fort Worth is served by CoServ Electric (Denton County Electric Cooperative), where homes cannot choose a provider.
What is the average cost of electricity in Fort Worth per month?
About $152 a month for a typical home using 1,000 kWh, on the average Fort Worth plan we list at 15.2¢/kWh. That includes delivery but not city sales tax. A 500 kWh month runs about $84 and a 2,000 kWh month about $293. On the cheapest Fort Worth plan we list without a bill credit, at 12.8¢, a 1,000 kWh month costs about $128.
How many Fort Worth electricity plans are in each price range?
The most common price range is 12¢ to 14¢ per kWh at 1,000 kWh a month, which covers 14 of the 44 Fort Worth plans we list. The full spread:
- 6¢ to 8¢: 2 plans.

- 20¢ to 22¢: 1 plan.
The average is 15.2¢/kWh and the lowest price we list without a bill credit is 12.8¢, both with delivery included.
Why is my Fort Worth electricity rate higher than the advertised price?
Often because the advertised price assumes exactly 1,000 kWh, and bill credit plans cost more at other usage levels. Frontier Utilities' 12-month plan has the lowest advertised price we list in Fort Worth. What it costs per kWh:
- At 500 kWh a month: 20.3¢.
- At 1,000 kWh a month: 7.4¢, because the bill credit applies.
- At 2,000 kWh a month: 13.4¢.
If your usage swings month to month, compare against the lowest Fort Worth price we list without a bill credit, 12.8¢ at 1,000 kWh.
How do I find the cheapest electricity plan for my Fort Worth home?
Compare plans at your own monthly usage, not the advertised 1,000 kWh price. In four steps:
- Find your monthly kWh on a past bill, or estimate it from your home size.
- Compare prices at that usage. The average Fort Worth plan we list is 16.8¢/kWh at 500 kWh but 14.65¢ at 2,000 kWh.
- Check whether the price depends on a bill credit; those plans cost more outside their usage range.
- Check the plan length and the early-termination fee on the Electricity Facts Label. Texas sets no limit on that fee.
What is the Oncor part of a Fort Worth electricity rate?
Oncor charges $4.06 a month plus 6.0295¢ per kWh, which comes to $64.36 at 1,000 kWh.
- The same with every provider; the Public Utility Commission of Texas sets it.
- Share of the bill: about 42% of a 1,000 kWh bill on an average Fort Worth plan we list, at 15.2¢/kWh.
- Already in the plan price you see.

How much sales tax is on a Fort Worth electric bill?
Fort Worth adds its 1% city sales tax. The 6.25% Texas state sales tax does not apply to home electricity. On a $128 bill for 1,000 kWh on the cheapest Fort Worth plan we list without a bill credit, the tax comes to about $1.28.

How do I get the power turned on when I move to Fort Worth?
Sign up with a retail provider; it orders the move-in from Oncor. Service starts on the date you pick with two business days' notice, or the same day if ordered by 5 pm on a business day. Oncor charges $0.55 to start service at an existing meter and $28.70 at a new meter.
