Electricity Plans in Eagle Pass, TX
Gexa Energy offers a variety of electricity plans in Eagle Pass designed to fit different households, lifestyles, and energy usage patterns, including:
Fixed-Rate Electricity Plans
Fixed-rate electricity plans provide stable energy charges3 throughout your contract term, which can help make monthly energy costs more predictable. These plans are often a good fit for households that prefer consistency and want to avoid energy charge fluctuations tied to market conditions or other plan structures.
Usage or Bill Credit Electricity Plans
Usage credit electricity plans provide a bill credit when your monthly electricity usage reaches or exceeds a specific threshold, such as 1,000 or 2,000 kWh (threshold varies by plan). These plans can work well for households with steady moderate to high electricity usage. If you don’t meet the threshold on a given month, you will miss the credit. Make sure you understand your current electricity usage.
Free Electricity Plans4
Free electricity plans are structured around specific periods when energy charges are free or reduced, such as overnight hours or weekends. Energy charges outside of those designated periods are often higher, and other recurring charges may still apply. Households that can shift more of their energy usage into those timeframes typically benefit the most from these plans.
Smart Thermostat and Incentive Plans5
These Gexa Energy plans include Smart Thermostats and energy management tools that can help customers monitor and adjust their home’s electricity usage. Some select plans may also include energy optimization6 features, which allow thermostat adjustments during peak usage periods. Through the Gexa Energy mobile app and Gexa MyAccount, customers can track usage trends, manage account details, and stay informed about their daily energy habits.
EV Charging Plans7
Electric vehicle charging plans are designed for households that primarily charge their vehicles at home overnight. These plans offer credits on your energy charges when you schedule your EV charging during designated overnight hours.
Solar Electricity Plans8
Gexa Energy offers solar buyback plans for homes with solar panel systems. They provide bill credits for the eligible excess electricity your system sends back to the main power grid. These plans may help eligible solar customers offset a portion of their energy charges over time, though homes with lower solar production may see less benefit.
Variable-Price Plans
Variable-price plans offer flexibility since they don’t require a long-term contract, but energy charges may change from month to month based on market conditions. These plans are generally better suited for short-term situations.
Flat Rate Plans
Flat-rate electricity plans provide more consistent monthly energy costs throughout the year. These plans use your historical electricity usage to estimate a stable monthly amount for energy usage up to a specified limit. If you exceed that limit, additional charges may apply.

Who Supplies and Delivers Electricity?
In Eagle Pass, you can choose an REP, like Gexa Energy, to supply your electricity and manage your account. The Transmission and Distribution Utility (TDU), often called an electric utility company, is responsible for the area. In this case, AEP Texas handles power delivery, maintains the electrical grid, and responds to outages. TDUs are assigned based on location and cannot be selected by customers.
Like all other TDUs in Texas, AEP Texas charges every customer in its service area a delivery fee, regardless of which REP they choose. These TDU charges are regulated by the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT), passed through without markup, and included in your electricity bill.
What Affects Eagle Pass Electricity Costs?
Eagle Pass electricity rates are influenced by several key factors:
Energy usage: Air conditioning systems often use more electricity during long South Texas summers. Thermostat settings, appliance usage, and how often people are home can all impact overall electricity consumption.
Home size and insulation: Larger homes generally use more electricity than smaller homes. Older insulation, air leaks, and inefficient cooling systems can also increase energy usage.
Seasonal changes: Summer months often bring higher electricity usage due to cooling demands. Homes with electric heating may also experience increased usage during colder periods.
Plan structure: Fixed-rate plans offer more stable energy charges over time, while variable-price plans can change from month to month. Some plans also include usage credits or free electricity periods that may affect how and when electricity is used.
TDU delivery charges: Eagle Pass electricity charges include regulated delivery fees from AEP Texas that apply regardless of the retail electric provider or plan selected.
How to Choose the Right Electricity Plan in Eagle Pass
Choosing the right electricity plan in Eagle Pass starts with understanding how your household uses energy throughout the year. The best fit often depends on your monthly usage patterns, lifestyle, and how much flexibility or predictability you want in your energy charges.
Start With Your Home and Usage
Every home in Eagle Pass uses electricity differently. Reviewing your household’s typical energy habits can help narrow down which plan structures may fit your needs. When comparing plans, consider factors such as:
Home size: Smaller homes and apartments often use less electricity than larger single-family homes.
Cooling and heating habits: Air conditioning can significantly increase electricity usage during long South Texas summers. Heating usage may vary depending on your home’s setup.
Number of occupants: More people in the home often means higher electricity usage from lighting, electronics, appliances, and laundry.
High-energy features: Electric vehicles, pools, workshops, and additional refrigerators or freezers can increase monthly electricity usage.
Compare Plan Features, Not Just Price
Electricity rates are important, but it’s also helpful to understand how a plan is structured. Comparing plan features alongside pricing can provide a clearer picture of how your monthly energy charges may vary over time. Pay attention to:
Your average monthly usage: Some advertised rates are tied to specific usage levels, so reviewing your typical kilowatt-hour usage can help you compare plans more accurately.
Contract length: Fixed-rate plans can provide more stable energy charges, while shorter-term or variable-price plans may offer additional flexibility.
Plan flexibility: Consider how long you expect to stay in your current home, and if flexibility may be important later.
Included features and credits: Some plans include bill credits, Free Electricity periods, Smart Thermostats, or account management tools that may impact overall energy costs.
Before enrolling, review the EFL to understand how the plan is structured, including energy charges, fees, and more.
