San Angelo Electricity Rates

Edited by Rafael Morales
Last updated:

The cheapest True Fixed electricity rate in San Angelo today for a 12 to 23 month term is 11.3¢/kWh at 1,000 kWh, from True Power. Across the 53 True Fixed plans in that range we track in San Angelo, the average is 13.9¢/kWh. Both numbers account for the energy provider’s charges and all TDU delivery and base charges, so they reflect what you actually pay.

That 11.3¢ is the floor for a real fixed rate in San Angelo on a term of 12 months or longer. If you see a 12-month-or-longer plan advertised well below this rate, it is almost certainly a bill credit plan. Those rates only apply if your monthly usage lands inside a narrow window, usually right around 1,000 kWh. Over a year you will likely miss it in at least 4 months (overpaying $400 or more), using too little or too much. Clear Energy Facts does not recommend these plans.

Every plan listed here is True Fixed. If you are looking for a different plan type in San Angelo, we track those separately: Best Free Nights plans, Best Free Weekends plans, and No-credit-check prepaid plans.

Truly Fixed vs. Bill Credit vs. Time-of-Use: Which Plan Type Is Better in San Angelo?

  • New to your home? (Less than 12 months): If you just moved to San Angelo or have lived in your home for less than a year, we strongly recommend sticking with Truly Fixed plan.

Why: Without a full year of usage history, you do not know how your home will handle the Texas heat in August or the cold snaps in February. A fixed rate helps protect you from large price swings during those unpredictable months.

  • Lived there for a year or more? (Use Your Data): If you have at least 12 months of history in the same location, you can stop guessing. Over 90% of Texas homes are equipped with Smart Meters, which record your electricity usage every 15 minutes.

Take advantage of our Analysis Tool: Our system can compare every available plan against your actual usage history. This is extremely valuable for checking whether Free Nights or Free Weekends plans are really saving you money, or whether a Truly Fixed rate is still your cheapest option. To use this tool, sign in or create an account and compare more the 200 plans in San Angelo


Do I Need to Pay a Deposit to Enroll in an Electricity Plan in San Angelo?

It depends. There are two main ways account setup is handled in the Texas electricity market:

Post-paid Plans (Credit-Based): Most of the plans listed on this page are post-paid plans. These are traditional “use now, pay later” contracts.
  • Credit Check: The provider will usually perform a soft credit check, which does not affect your credit score. 
  • Deposit Requirements: If you have decent to excellent credit, you likely will not be required to pay a deposit. However, if you have poor credit history, you may need to pay a deposit, typically between $150 and $400. 
  • Refunds: These deposits are usually refundable after a year of on-time payments or when you close your account.

Prepaid Plans (No Deposit / No Credit Check): If you want to avoid both a credit check and a deposit, prepaid plans are usually your best option.
  • How It Works: These plans do not require a deposit or a credit check. We also have a specific section on this website dedicated to prepaid electricity. 
  • The Cost: Rates for prepaid plans are usually slightly higher than post-paid plans, but the difference is often small for low-usage customers, such as those living in small apartments. 
  • Recommended Provider: Payless Power is one of the top companies offering reliable prepaid electricity plans in Texas.

Pro Tip: Deposit Waivers: In Texas, you can often get your deposit waived on a post-paid plan if you are 65 or older, a victim of family violence, or if you can provide a Letter of Credit from your previous utility company showing 12 months of on-time payments.
