Questions to try

"I live in 75201 and use about 1,000 kWh a month. What's the cheapest plan?"
"Is 14 cents a kilowatt-hour a good rate in Houston?"
"What's the price to compare in Columbus, Ohio?"
"I'm in Massachusetts, 02134, what are my options?"

What you get

Current plans, ranked by price for your utility, at the amount of electricity you use.
Your utility, found from your ZIP code. Where a ZIP code is served by two utilities, you see both.
The price to compare, the utility's default rate, in states that publish one. Texas does not.
Warnings about bill credits. Some plans look cheap only if you use a set amount each month, because a bill credit kicks in at that point. When a low price depends on that, you are told.

Some plans pay FindEnergyRates when you enroll. Those plans are marked, and that never affects how plans are ranked. FindEnergyRates is a licensed broker in Texas (PUCT BR250242). Outside Texas, we only list plans.

Limits

Each address can make 20 lookups a minute and 300 a day. One question can take two or three lookups.
Data is refreshed daily, and rates change. Always confirm the rate on the supplier's page before you sign up.
