If you just moved into new premises in Texas, you were automatically assigned an energy supplier. Luckily, even if you are not happy with this company, you can select a different one.
Choosing an energy supplier is not easy as there are tens of different companies operating in Texas. Luckily, at Marcus Energy we have expert knowledge of the energy market in the US and we can help you compare available tariffs and pick the most competitive one.
If you live in Texas, you can decide who supplies your energy
Many cities in the US decided to deregulate their energy markets, giving its residents the chance to decide who their supplier is. That means that if you live in one of the deregulated areas, your energy provider might be different from your local utility service.
At Marcus Energy, we work with residential and commercial customers in Texas, which is one of the states with deregulated energy markets. In fact, Texas is the biggest deregulated sector in the US.
Choose the best energy supplier for your needs
Here are the factors you need to take into consideration when deciding which energy supplier to choose:
| Types of energy | You have to ask yourself if you want to source your energy from renewables or fossil fuels. If you care about the environment, you should look for a supplier that offers green tariffs. |
| Types of contracts | Some suppliers offer more flexible contracts than others. Before you commit, you should ask yourself whether a fixed-term deal for, for example, two or three years is a good option, or whether you should go for a variable contract that you can end anytime. |
| Reviews | Before you sign a contract with a supplier, make sure to read reviews left by its former customers. It’s a great way to get some insight into the quality of services they offer. If a supplier’s offer seems attractive but they only have negative reviews, maybe you should consider choosing a different one. |
| Customer Service | You should make sure that the supplier you choose offers good quality service. In case there are ever any problems, it is good to have the option to talk to company’s representatives using, for example, a live chat. |
| Prices | Of course, energy prices are one of the most important things to think about when choosing a supplier. After all, no one wants to pay high energy bills. Before you hide a contract, ask a broker to analyse it with you to make sure there are no hidden charges. |
If you want to be sure the supplier you chose is the best one, hire an energy broker. At Marcus Energy, we know which energy tariffs are competitive. We will compare hundreds of available options and tell you which ones you should consider.
You can choose one of many energy plans
If you live in Texas, you can not only choose your energy provider, but you can also select one of many energy plans they offer. Which deal is the best for you depends on the individual needs of your business. Here are some options that many people look for when deciding which energy contract to sign:
- Fixed-rate plans – if you choose a fixed-rate plan, you do not have to worry about energy prices rising. Your energy bills will stay the same throughout the duration of your contract. That gives you good security but, if prices on the energy market go down, you might find yourself missing out on better deals. Moreover, you will be locked in for several years and you might have to pay early termination fees if you want to change suppliers before your contract expires.
- Variable-rate plans – if you choose a deal that comes with variable rates, how much you will pay for energy will vary depending on the fluctuations on the market. That means that one month you might be getting very cheap rates and the other very expensive ones. This type of energy plan does not protect you from energy prices rising but it gives you great flexibility as you can end it anytime.
- Green options – nowadays more and more people care about the environment and want to reduce their impact on it by choosing green energy plans. If you are one of them, you should choose a plan where energy comes from renewable sources.
- Prepaid plans – in Texas, many people decide to choose prepaid energy plans where they pay for their gas and electricity before they use it. These plans operate on pay-as-you-go-basis, which means that once you use up all the credit, you can pay more and keep using the supply. These plans offer a high degree of flexibility as they usually do not require you to sign a long-term energy contract.
