The Power to Choose an Electricity Provider with Lower Prices
If you are just finding out that you have the power to choose your own electricity provider, you are
certainly not alone.
It was back in 2002, when the Texas state legislature restructured the state’s
energy market through deregulation.
Their actions instantly created a competitive market.
This
allowed business and residential consumers the power to choose an alternative energy provider,
than the one that was currently delivering electricity services and products.
For well over 100 years, utility companies in Texas had a monopoly on delivering services to
specific regions in the state.
As a monopoly, their pricing structure was determined by both the
utility companies, and state regulators.
Since the deregulation happened, nearly every consumer of
electricity in the state of Texas has the power to choose a new provider that offers lower rates.
