About Tara Energy
Tara Energy launched in 2002 in Houston as a retail electricity provider serving residential and commercial customers across deregulated Texas markets. The company was originally a subsidiary of Fulcrum Power Services before being acquired along with sister brand Amigo Energy by Just Energy Group in August 2011 as part of the approximately $79 million Fulcrum Retail Holdings deal. Tara Energy became part of the IGS Energy family when IGS acquired Just Energy in July 2025. The company has served hundreds of thousands of customers and offers same-day connections and Saturday start dates.
Tara Energy FAQ
Common questions about Tara Energy electricity plans, rates, and service areas.
Where can I get Tara Energy electricity?
Tara Energy is available across five TDU service territories in Texas — Oncor, CenterPoint, AEP Texas Central, AEP Texas North, and TNMP. Coverage depends on your physical address, so use the ZIP code tool above to check availability.
Are Tara Energy electricity rates competitive?
Tara Energy rates currently average 12.1¢/kWh across 5 Texas territories, with the cheapest plan at 9.6¢/kWh in AEP Texas Central. Rates vary by territory because each TDU has different delivery charges. All rates on this page are refreshed multiple times daily.
What causes price differences across Tara Energy service areas?
The price differences come from TDU delivery charges, which are set by your local utility — not by Tara Energy. Oncor, CenterPoint, AEP Texas, and other TDUs each have different per-kWh delivery rates and fixed monthly fees, so the same plan will have a different all-in price depending on your territory.
How long are Tara Energy electricity contracts?
Plan terms range from 3 to 36 months. Fixed-rate contracts lock in your energy rate for the full term. If you need to cancel early, expect an early termination fee — current ETFs: 3-month plan: $175; 12-month plan: $175; 24-month plan: $175; 36-month plan: $175.
How do I sign up for Tara Energy electricity?
Pick a plan from the table above, then enroll through the provider's website or by phone. Tara Energy handles the switch with your local utility automatically. There's no interruption to your power — the transition usually takes 1-3 business days.
