Texas Electric Cooperatives & Municipal Utilities

Search Texas electric cooperatives and city-owned electric utilities for contact details, solar policies, and distributed generation (DG) resources. Most co-op and municipal utility customers cannot shop for a competing electricity provider—confirm the rules for your exact address.

Can you choose your electricity provider in Texas?

Not every Texas home or business is in the competitive electricity market. Your actual service address and utility service territory determine your options—not merely the city name or ZIP code.

Competitive retail territory

If your address is eligible for retail electric choice, you can compare plans offered by participating retail electricity providers.

Electric cooperative territory

Most cooperative-served locations cannot switch to another retail electricity provider. Some cooperative areas have different rules, so check the specific address.

Municipal utility territory

Many city-owned electric utilities also do not offer retail choice. There are exceptions where competition has been introduced.

Important: If your property is in a non-choice service area, Energy Ego cannot enroll you with a competing retail electric provider at that location. Your serving utility is the right contact for electric service, rates, solar applications, and export-credit policies. Learn about Texas electricity regulation ↗

No matching utilities were found. Try searching by another name or city.

The directory is an informational reference, not a complete or authoritative list of non-choice territories. Some entries are wholesale organizations or out-of-state references, labeled as such. Older source links and phone/address data have not all been independently revalidated. The presence of an organization does not prove that any particular address lacks retail electric choice. Some utilities have special participation rules (including Nueces Electric Cooperative). PUC spreadsheets are contact directories, not proof that every listed entity provides direct residential service or that it is within a non-choice territory.

How to find your electric utility

Start with a recent electricity bill. If you are moving or do not know the utility name, confirm who physically serves the address before making a decision.

1. Check your bill

Look for the cooperative, municipal utility, or retail and delivery utility names on your current statement.

2. Search the directory

Use the utility name or city to find an official website, phone number, solar resources, and any listed DG documentation.

3. Confirm territory and solar rules

Ask the utility to confirm your service address, interconnection requirements, and current treatment of excess solar generation.

Need a boundary reference? Consult the Public Utility Commission of Texas and its electric service-area map resources. Published map boundaries are approximate and do not replace utility confirmation.

Solar panels, interconnection & excess-energy credits

Customers in non-choice territories can still investigate rooftop solar. The local utility's rules—not a retail-provider shopping site—determine interconnection and any solar export compensation.

Solar application & DG manual

Request the current technical standards, forms, inspections, meter requirements, and approval process before installing or energizing solar panels.

Solar buyback & export credits

Do not assume a net-metering or solar buyback program exists. Ask whether exported kWh receive a credit, the calculation method, and whether credits expire.

Battery & backup systems

Ask how batteries, export-limiting equipment, generators, and backup transfer systems affect the interconnection application.

Shopping for solar buyback in a competitive area? If your address is eligible for electric choice, compare solar buyback plans on Energy Ego. These plans are not generally available to customers served by non-choice co-ops or municipal utilities.

Texas electric-choice & solar FAQs

Common questions about choosing an electricity company, co-op service, municipal utilities, and solar export arrangements.

Can I choose my electricity provider if I have a Texas electric cooperative?

Usually not. Most Texas electric cooperatives do not participate in retail electric competition. There are exceptions, including parts of Nueces Electric Cooperative territory. Confirm eligibility for your exact service address.

Can I switch electricity companies if I have a city-owned utility?

Usually not. Many municipally owned electric utilities serve customers under utility-specific retail rates rather than competitive retail plans. Verify the service territory; some Texas municipal areas, such as Lubbock Power & Light, participate in retail choice.

Can I still install solar panels in a non-deregulated Texas area?

Often yes, subject to the utility’s technical requirements, permits, interconnection process, and system approval. Obtain the current solar and distributed generation policy from your serving utility before installation.

Will my cooperative or municipal utility buy my excess solar energy?

Not necessarily. Export credits, net metering, compensation rates, and program availability vary by utility and can change. Ask your utility for its current written tariff or policy.

How do I find my Texas electric utility?

Look at the electric utility name on your bill or confirm the service area using the Public Utility Commission of Texas electric service-area maps. ZIP codes and city names alone cannot reliably confirm which utility serves a specific address.

What if my address is eligible for electric choice?

You can compare available retail electricity plans through Energy Ego, including residential electricity rates and eligible solar buyback plans. Confirm address-level eligibility before shopping.

Solar energy glossary

Browse 20 plain-language terms used in Texas solar policies, utility interconnection agreements, and distributed generation (DG) manuals.

Distributed generation (DG)

Electricity generated at or near the customer’s property, such as rooftop solar or a small wind system.

Interconnection agreement

The required utility agreement governing how a customer-owned generation system connects to the grid.

Solar buyback

A program that may compensate a customer for eligible surplus electricity exported to the grid.

Net metering

A billing arrangement that measures imported and exported electricity under a utility-specific policy.

Export credit

A bill credit or payment for qualifying exported electricity; it may differ from the retail purchase rate.

Inverter

Equipment that converts solar-panel direct current (DC) into alternating current (AC).

Bidirectional meter

A meter that measures electricity flowing into and, where applicable, out of a property.

Permission to operate (PTO)

The utility’s authorization to operate an interconnected solar system, after required reviews and inspections.

Retail electric provider (REP)

A company that sells electricity to eligible customers in Texas competitive retail territories.

Electric cooperative (co-op)

A member-owned electricity utility, usually operating in a defined service area.

Municipally owned utility (MOU)

An electric utility owned by a city or other municipality.

Certified service territory / CCN

An area in which a utility has designated or authorized retail service rights, subject to applicable rules.

Time-of-use (TOU) rate

A price structure with different electricity rates at different times of day.

Battery storage

Equipment that stores electricity for later use, often used alongside solar panels.

Self-consumption

Using electricity from a solar system directly at the property instead of exporting it.

Avoided-cost rate

The price a utility assigns to electricity it does not need to generate or purchase because of exported customer solar power. Some utilities use this rate to calculate export credits; it can be lower than the retail electricity rate.

Interconnection application

The forms, technical details, and sometimes fees a utility requires before a solar or battery system can be connected to its grid. Approval requirements vary by utility.

Solar system size (kW DC)

The rated direct-current output of a solar array under standard test conditions, expressed in kilowatts (kW). Actual output changes with sunlight, temperature, and equipment performance.

Non-export solar system

A solar installation designed to prevent power from flowing back to the utility grid. Even non-export systems may require utility review and approval.

Credit rollover and true-up

Rules describing whether unused solar export credits carry into later billing months and when any remaining balance is reconciled, reset, or paid out. Policies differ among utilities.

Is your address eligible for retail electric choice?

Energy Ego helps eligible Texas customers compare electricity plans and solar buyback options. If you live in a non-choice utility territory, use the resource directory above to contact your utility directly.
