Lufkin Utilities
No matter which retail provider you pick, the poles, wires, and meters in Lufkin 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 Lufkin. The typical Oncor customer sees roughly 0.9 outages per year, each lasting about 107 minutes.
Lufkin Electric Bills
At Lufkin’s average rate of 14.0¢/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 Lufkin home’s bill ranges from about $114 in Mar to $240 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.
Lufkin Power Generation
Monthly bills are modeled from the local average rate and a regional seasonal usage profile; your actual usage will vary.

Lufkin Electricity Providers
We’ve compared rates and plans from 20 retail electricity providers (REPs) serving Lufkin’s Oncor territory. Every provider listed below is licensed by the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) and offers plans you can sign up for today. Your REP handles billing and customer service; Oncor delivers the power regardless of which provider you choose, so switching never affects reliability.
Lufkin Business Electricity Rates
Lufkin’s economy — anchored by the timber and forestry industry, CHI St. Luke’s healthcare, and its role as the Angelina County seat — means competitive electricity rates matter. Whether you run a timber operation, a healthcare practice, or a downtown shop, deregulation lets you shop dozens of providers for the best commercial rate.
Unlike residential plans with standardized pricing tiers, Lufkin 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 Lufkin Electricity
Whether you’re moving to Lufkin 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. Lufkin and surrounding Angelina 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 Lufkin?
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.
Lufkin Solar
Lufkin 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 →

Are there renewable energy plans in Lufkin?
Yes — several Lufkin providers offer plans with partial or full renewable energy content through Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs). These RECs match your usage with wind and solar generation on the ERCOT grid. No equipment changes are needed. Oncor Electric Delivery delivers the power identically regardless of whether your plan includes renewable content. Check each plan’s EFL for the exact renewable percentage.
How much are electricity delivery charges in Lufkin?
Oncor Electric Delivery’s delivery charges are regulated by the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) and identical for all Lufkin customers, regardless of supplier. These fees cover transmission, distribution infrastructure, and grid maintenance. When comparing Lufkin electricity plans, the rates shown at 1,000 kWh typically include delivery fees. Review each plan’s Electricity Facts Label (EFL) for the full breakdown of supply versus delivery costs.
Should I choose a fixed or variable rate plan in Lufkin?
Fixed-rate plans lock your supply rate for a set term (typically 3–36 months), protecting you from seasonal price spikes on the ERCOT grid. Variable-rate plans can change monthly based on wholesale electricity costs. In Lufkin, fixed plans currently start at 6.7¢/kWh. Most energy advisors recommend fixed rates for budget predictability, especially heading into summer when Texas wholesale prices historically spike.
