ERCOT is the only major US grid isolated from the Eastern and Western Interconnections — a deliberate political choice

Your utility — CenterPoint Energy — handles physical delivery of electricity to your building. The supply portion of your bill, where competition applies, is separate. That's where we operate: identifying which of 30+ licensed retail energy suppliers is pricing your load size and usage pattern most aggressively right now.

How the Houston Electricity Market Works

Second-largest city in country by commercial energy load; full ERCOT competition since 2002

Over 100 licensed Retail Electric Providers (REPs) compete in ERCOT territory

Houston businesses are part of the ERCOT South Central zone territory. ERCOT South Central zone manages wholesale electricity markets and system reliability. What happens in the wholesale market — capacity auctions, fuel costs, weather events — flows through to retail commercial rates. A broker tracks those conditions and advises on timing.

Current all-in commercial rates in Houston typically range 7–11 cents/kWh supply depending on load size, contract term, and market timing. Larger loads generally get more aggressive pricing because suppliers compete harder for them.

What We Do for Houston Businesses

Our process for Houston accounts:

1. Pull your data — 12 months of interval usage from CenterPoint Energy. We handle the data request.
2. Submit to 30+ suppliers — Same usage profile to every active supplier in the Houston territory simultaneously.
3. Translate the offers — You get plain-English comparisons of each offer: price, term, demand treatment, renewal terms, ETF structure.
4. Execute and monitor — We handle contract paperwork and flag your renewal window 6–9 months out.

No cost. No commitment until you choose a supplier. Our fee comes from the supplier you select — standard in the industry and priced into every quote regardless of whether you use a broker.

Types of Businesses We Work With in Houston

We serve commercial and industrial accounts of all sizes across Houston's business community. Common account types include:

• Office buildings and commercial real estate
• Retail stores and restaurants
• Light manufacturing and warehouse facilities

Load size matters to suppliers. Accounts using 50,000+ kWh/month typically see the most competitive pricing. Smaller accounts still benefit from the process — several suppliers specialize in small commercial.

Contract Structures for Houston Businesses

Three main pricing structures apply in the Houston market:

• Fixed-rate (12–36 months): Set price per kWh for the contract period. Best for budget certainty. Typical Houston range: 7–11 cents/kWh supply.
• Variable-rate: Floats with wholesale market each month. Lower in calm periods, but exposed to spikes. Generally not recommended for most commercial accounts.
• Indexed pricing: Priced against a published index (Day-Ahead market, NYMEX) plus a fixed adder. Transparent, but requires monitoring.
