North Texas Summer Warning
Fort Worth sits in the heart of North Texas where triple-digit heat waves are the norm from June through September. A home that uses 900 kWh in April can easily hit 1,800–2,200 kWh in July. Always compare plans at both 1,000 kWh and 2,000 kWh so your rate holds up when summer arrives.

Fort Worth Electricity FAQ
Common questions about electricity rates, plans, and providers in Fort Worth and Tarrant County.
How does Fort Worth’s deregulated electricity market work?
Fort Worth is part of Texas’s deregulated electricity market. You choose your retail electric provider (REP) while Oncor Electric Delivery owns and maintains the power lines. Your REP sets your rate, handles billing, and provides customer service. Oncor delivers the electricity regardless of which REP you select.
What is the cheapest electricity rate right now?
As of April 4, 2026 @ 3:36 PM CT, the cheapest Fort Worth electricity rate is 7.9¢/kWh at 1,000 kWh usage, offered by Chariot Energy (GridPlus 12 - 7.90¢). The average rate across all 60 available plans is 15.01¢/kWh. Rates are updated multiple times daily.
What is the average electricity bill in Fort Worth?
At the current average rate of 15.01¢/kWh, a Fort Worth home using 1,000 kWh/month pays approximately $150/month. Fort Worth homes typically use 1,100-1,200 kWh/month. Summer bills can climb to $200-350 for larger homes due to Tarrant County heat.
Who delivers electricity in Fort Worth?
Oncor Electric Delivery is the transmission and distribution utility (TDU) for Fort Worth and most of Tarrant County. Oncor owns the power lines and meters. They deliver electricity to your home regardless of which retail provider you choose. For outages, contact Oncor at 888-313-4747.
Fixed or variable — which is the better choice?
Fixed-rate plans are the safer choice for most Fort Worth households. North Texas summers bring sustained 100°F+ temperatures that drive up wholesale electricity costs. A fixed-rate plan locks your per-kWh price for 12-36 months, shielding you from summer price spikes.
How do I switch electricity providers?
Fort Worth commercial electricity rates are custom-quoted based on your business’s demand profile, usage volume, and contract length. Unlike residential plans, commercial pricing includes both energy charges and demand charges. Fort Worth businesses in Oncor territory typically save 15-25% by comparing providers.

Who do I call for power outages in Fort Worth?
For Fort Worth power outages, contact Oncor Electric Delivery at 888-313-4747. Oncor owns and maintains all power lines in the Fort Worth area — your retail provider cannot restore power. You can also report outages and track restoration progress at oncor.com or through Oncor’s mobile app.
What happens when my contract expires?
Your provider is required by Texas law to send a notice 30–45 days before your contract ends. If you take no action, you’ll roll onto a month-to-month variable rate — typically 15–20+ cents/kWh, well above fixed-rate pricing. Set a reminder to shop for a new Fort Worth plan 2–3 weeks before expiration to lock in a competitive rate.
Are renewable energy plans available in Fort Worth?
Absolutely. Fort Worth residents have access to 100% renewable plans from providers like Gexa Energy, Green Mountain Energy, and Chariot Energy. These plans are powered primarily by West Texas wind farms and are often priced competitively with conventional plans. Solar buyback plans are also available for Fort Worth homeowners with rooftop panels.
Why is my electric bill so high in summer?
North Texas summers bring sustained 100°F+ temperatures that force your air conditioner to run nearly around the clock. A Fort Worth home that uses 900 kWh in March can easily hit 1,800–2,200 kWh in July. Air conditioning accounts for 50–60% of summer electric bills. To save: set your thermostat to 78°F, use ceiling fans, seal air leaks, and make sure your AC filters are clean. A programmable thermostat can cut cooling costs by 10–15%.
How do Fort Worth business electricity rates work?
Fort Worth commercial electricity is custom-quoted based on your business’s demand profile, usage volume, and desired contract length. Unlike residential plans, commercial pricing blends energy charges with demand charges tied to your peak usage.
