TXU FAQ
Common questions about TXU electricity plans, rates, and service areas.
Is TXU available in my area?
TXU currently serves six Texas utility territories: Oncor, CenterPoint, AEP Texas Central, AEP Texas North, TNMP, and Sharyland. Not all plans may be available in every territory. Enter your ZIP code above to see what's offered at your address.
How much does TXU electricity cost per kWh?
At 1,000 kWh monthly usage, TXU plans currently price between 9.7¢ and 12.9¢ per kWh. The average across all plans and territories is 10.8¢/kWh, with the best rate found in the CenterPoint territory. These rates include TDU delivery charges and refresh several times per day.
What causes price differences across TXU service areas?
The price differences come from TDU delivery charges, which are set by your local utility — not by TXU. 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.
Can I get a short-term plan from TXU?
TXU offers contract terms from 12 to 12 months. Shorter terms give you flexibility to switch sooner, while longer terms typically lock in a lower rate. Early cancellation fees apply: 12-month plan: $150.
What do I need to enroll with TXU?
You'll need your service address (or ZIP code), a valid ID, and your Social Security number for a credit check. Some plans may not require a credit check or deposit. Select a plan above to start enrollment. The switch typically completes in 1-3 business days with no service interruption.
