Mission Electricity FAQ

Common questions about electricity rates, plans, and providers in Mission, Texas.

What is the cheapest electricity rate in Mission right now?

Today’s cheapest: 6.7¢/kWh at 1,000 kWh in Mission, offered by AP GAS & ELECTRIC (TX) LLC (SimpleSaver 12 - 6.70¢). That’s well below the 12.69¢ average across 173 plans from 32 providers. Under the PUCT-regulated deregulated market, every provider delivers power over AEP Texas’s grid — your electricity is identical regardless of supplier. The gap between cheapest and average translates to roughly $60/month in savings.

What is the average monthly electric bill in Mission?

A typical Mission household using 1,000 kWh pays around $127/month at the average rate of 12.69¢/kWh. The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) reports Texas homes average 1,140 kWh/month due to summer air conditioning demand. On the cheapest available plan at 6.7¢, supply costs drop to $67/month. Summer AC and winter heating drive the biggest monthly swings.

Who delivers electricity in Mission?

Electricity in Mission is delivered by AEP Texas, the regulated TDU for this area. AEP Texas owns the poles, wires, transformers, and meters. Under PUCT regulations, AEP Texas must deliver power equally to all customers regardless of which REP (Retail Electric Provider) they purchase supply from. Your supplier choice changes only your rate and billing.

How do I switch electricity providers in Mission?

Pick a REP (Retail Electric Provider) from the 32 providers serving Mission, enroll online, and the new supplier handles everything with AEP Texas. The PUCT-regulated switch takes 1–2 business days with no service interruption. AEP Texas processes it without any physical work at your home. Same grid, same power — just a different rate and billing source.

Are there renewable energy plans in Mission?

Several providers serving Mission include renewable energy in their plans through Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) sourced from ERCOT-connected wind and solar facilities across Texas. No home equipment changes are needed — AEP Texas delivers the power identically. Compare plan details on each provider’s Electricity Facts Label (EFL) to see the exact renewable energy percentage included.

How much are electricity delivery charges in Mission?

AEP Texas delivery charges in Mission are regulated by the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) and apply equally to all customers regardless of which REP (Retail Electric Provider) they choose. These charges cover poles, wires, meters, and grid maintenance. Most plan rates displayed on comparison sites already include AEP Texas’s delivery fees. Check the Electricity Facts Label (EFL) for each plan to see the exact breakdown of supply versus delivery costs.

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

Fixed-rate plans guarantee your supply rate for a set period, typically 3 to 36 months. Variable-rate plans adjust monthly based on ERCOT wholesale market conditions. In Mission, fixed plans start at 6.7¢/kWh today. For most households, a fixed rate offers better budget predictability and protection against summer price spikes when grid demand peaks and wholesale costs can surge.
