Residential Electric Rates in Houston Texas

Residential Electric Rates in Harris County Texas are currently not very competitive. There are around 40 Retail Electric Providers in Texas and they have had to raise rates in the face of higher natural gas prices raising electricity generation costs. Many think that commercial rates are better then residential rates. This is not exactly the case. The commercial quotes above do not include TDSP charges because they are not readily known. Each business is different. TDSP charges for homes are all about the same in the 2 -3 cents kWh range so they are automatically bundled into the rate. Because TDSP charges are the same for homes you can be quoted a total bundled rate but with commercial energy rates you actually have to have the provider request your usage from the utility to determine what you will pay in TDSP charges. Houston TX residential electric rates are updated on a monthly basis on this page.
