Texas has a deregulated electricity market, so in CenterPoint territory (Houston and the Gulf Coast) you choose your retail provider — but PowerToChoose lists hundreds of plans, many with gimmicks. We filter out variable-rate, prepaid, and time-of-use plans, plans with bill credits or hidden monthly base charges, and setup or credit-card fees we read from the Electricity Facts Label. Then we rank what's left by your real cost. We take no referral money, so the plan above is the genuinely cheapest honest one in Houston and the Gulf Coast — not the one that pays us most.
