No appointment needed and no interruption to your power. the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) oversees the switching process to ensure it’s seamless. The only change is who supplies your power and at what rate.
Are there renewable energy plans in Waco?

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.

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 Waco?
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 Waco, fixed plans currently start at 6.2¢/kWh. Most energy advisors recommend fixed rates for budget predictability, especially heading into summer when Texas wholesale prices historically spike.
