What You Need to Know to Be Prepared for Energy Deregulation in Lubbock, Texas

Understand Electric Deregulation

First, it's important to grasp the concept of electric deregulation in Texas. This means you have the power to choose your electric provider and have control over your energy options.

Research Available Providers

Start by researching the various electric providers operating in your area. Look into their pricing, contract terms, customer feedback, and their commitment to renewable energy.

Compare Plans and Offers

Compare the plans and offers from different electric providers. Look for features that match your energy goals, like renewable energy options, fixed or variable rates, and any additional benefits they offer.

Select Your Electric Provider

Once you've done your research, choose the electric provider that best suits your needs. Consider factors such as cost, contract length, customer support, and their reputation in the industry. Sign up for a plan with your chosen electric company.

Initiate the Switching Process

Contact your selected electric provider to start the switching process. They will guide you through the necessary steps and explain any requirements or documents needed. Be ready to provide your current account information and billing details.

Confirm the Switch

After signing up with your new electric provider, they will inform your previous provider about the switch. You will receive a confirmation notice to verify the upcoming change. Review it carefully and reach out to your new provider if you have any questions or concerns.

Enjoy a Seamless Transition

Your new electric provider will handle the transition smoothly. There will be no interruption in your electricity service during the switch. You can continue using electricity as usual, and your new provider will take care of billing and customer service.

Monitor Your Billing

Keep an eye on your monthly bills to ensure accuracy. If you have any billing-related questions or notice any discrepancies, contact your electric provider for clarification. Address any concerns promptly to maintain a smooth billing process.

Exercise Your Customer Rights

As a homeowner and electric customer, you have specific rights and protections. Familiarize yourself with these rights, such as non-discrimination, protection against unauthorized switching or additional charges, dispute resolution, and the privacy of your information. The Public Utility Commission (PUC) is available to help with any issues or concerns.

Embrace Renewable Energy Opportunities

Consider purchasing renewable power or generating your own excess renewable energy. Explore options to buy "green" power from renewable sources or sell any excess power you produce through distributed renewable generation systems. Make sure you understand the specific regulations and requirements in your area for selling or purchasing renewable energy.
