When comparing electric companies there's a few things to think about. You don't want to overpay, but signing up for the "cheapest" plan isn't always the best idea.
Energy rates depend heavily on your usage. Providers will often price plans at different usage levels. For example, if you less than 1,000 kWh in a month your rate is 10¢. But, if you use 1,800 kWh the rate changes to 14¢.
The most important thing you can do find the right electric company is to know your usage. Don't worry, EnergyBot connects to your utility to retrieve all your usage history.
Using your usage history we can match you to the plans that fit your habits. You can see what you will actually pay without any surprises.
Energy plans also have a whole set of terms and conditions. Early termination, variable rates, etc,. This is where the Electricity Facts Label comes in.
The Electricity Facts Label, or EFL for short, summarizes the details of the plan. Make sure you read the EFL before signing up for a plan.
So in short. Use your usage to find a plan that works for your habits and read the EFL to avoid any tricky terms.

Electric company, energy provider, energy supplier, utility. What's the difference?
It can be hard to tell who's who in the electricity business. For simplicity, let's break it down into two parts.
Utilities are companies that make sure the power gets delivered to your home. They maintain the power lines and the equipment that transfers electricity. In North Texas, your utility is likely Oncor. In the Houston area, it's likely CenterPoint.
The companies that offer energy plans to consumers are Texas Electric Providers. Also called REPs for short.
These companies buy energy on the wholesale market and resell it to consumers. So when you are shopping for electric rates you are comparing electric providers.
There are almost 300 registered energy providers in Texas. Each provider has rates and plans that change daily. Trying to contact each provider and get rates to compare is not practical.
EnergyBot puts all these electric companies in one place so you can compare rates.
