I will readily admit that I don't know just how it all works, but I do know that the distribution company is Oncor and they have a huge office facility and many, many trucks about a mile from my house.

But the bill comes from TXU Energy and I pay then online.

Never heard of getting electricity from a different company. We can get natural gas from different companies here in MI.

Went back and put in 8 yrs of temperatures from my electric bills into my spreadsheet. Then averaged those for the yr. Varies from 52 to 56° for the yr, and no warming trend over the 8 yrs. No correlation with cost, usage, and temp. Several times the "last yrs" temp did not match the temp they gave the yr before.

I put in my zip code and got Zero plans. Here we have no choice. It's just Bluebonnet Electrical Coop.

Then I went back and put my zip code in Houston and got 63 choices. ???

Our total rate is $110.12 (includes all fees and meter)
(based on 1,000 kWh use) how does our non-competitive rates compare to your competitive rates Bird.

I have one choice for electricity. Hydro One. They say they don't have a monopoly on the hydro, but IF I was to go to a retailer for the juice, then I would have to pay the retailer AND Hydro One. Better the devil I know.
