Frequently Asked Questions

Is Alice included in deregulated service areas?

The majority of Texas cities, including Alice, are deregulated service areas. Under the Texas Senate Bill 7, this affords its residents the power to choose their power provider and energy plans. Before, the sole provider was AEP Central. They continue to provide electricity for many homes in the area. But since 2002, Alice residents were given other options. 

What are some of the top electricity providers in Alice?

Aside from the benefit of being deregulated, Alice residents can choose from different energy providers because of the city’s proximity to the Dallas energy market. With a lot to choose from, it can be difficult to identify which plan is the best for you. That is why Energy Outlet made it easier to find the right electricity provider with just a few clicks. 

Based on our data, these are the top five energy providers in Alice: Frontier Utilities, Pulse Power, 4Change Energy, Tara Energy, and Entrust Energy. 

How do I know if the energy plan is right for me?

Various energy providers offer different benefits to attract customers. With Energy Outlet, you can easily compare different providers with their corresponding plans. The things you have to consider in choosing is the type of plan, the average consumption, and whether it will be for a household or commercial use. 

For the type of plan, you have two options— fixed-rate and variable-rate. Fixed-rate offers a standard price for its consumers for the whole duration of their term. While the variable-rate plan depends on the consumption of energy in Texas. The rates will fluctuate according to the demands of the market.

The average consumption will vary depending on the needs of the household. Larger homes that consume an average of 2,000kWh can expect higher rates than an average home that consumes 1,000kWh. Of course, this will still vary depending on your chosen plan and energy provider. 

The last thing you need to take into consideration is if it will be your business use. There are several electricity providers that offer commercial energy plans for their consumers. Included in these are Reliant Energy, Pulse Power, and Cirro Energy. 

Why should I choose a green energy plan?

Because of deregulation, Alice residents are given the power to choose energy plans that are suited to their needs. This means that you can also opt for the eco-friendly option. Going green helps the environment by using clean and renewable resources. This reduces carbon emissions from the burning of fossil fuels. By incorporating clean energy into your energy usage, you can help save the future.

The best part about choosing renewable energy plans is that they cost about the same as electric plans that use fossil fuels. In addition to this, you might also be eligible for tax incentives for using renewable energy. We understand that it can be daunting to make the switch but we will be happy to walk you through it.
