Thanks to electricity deregulation in Texas, there are hundreds of different electricity companies in the Lone star State. Also thanks to deregulation, over 80% of Texans have the power to choose their own electricity company and plan. As a result, the energy market in Texas is one of the most brutal and competitive in the United States. It's also one of the most confusing when you realize that there are over a hundred electricity companies offering plans and benefits very similar to one another.
However, GoodCharlie Energy has the edge over many of its competitors for one specific reason. Our energy plans aren’t just catered to you and your electricity needs.

What Kinds of Electricity Companies are There in Texas?
While retail electric providers are the types of power companies you need to worry about the most, there are three different electricity companies in Texas.
Power-Generating Plants
Power generating plants are the power companies that create electricity. Most people don’t realize that electricity is derived from other things in nature, such as fossil fuels or renewable resources. The electricity company you pay your monthly power bill to typically isn’t the company that creates it. Instead, your REP purchases electricity from power generating plants at wholesale value and sells it to you at resale value.
Transmission and Distribution Utilities
Transmission and distribution utilities (TDUs) are the electricity companies that take electricity from your REP to your home. While you have the power to choose your retail electric provider, you don’t have the chance to choose your TDU. There are six different TDUs in Texas, all covering different parts of the state.TDUs are responsible for delivering electricity to your home, and they also manage all of the components that make this possible. They own the power lines, electric poles, wires, cables, and electric meters that are on the side of your home.
Retail Electric Providers
Retail electric providers (REPs) are the electricity companies to whom you pay your monthly power bills. REPs work in conjunction with power generating plants and TDUs to ensure electricity makes it safely and seamlessly to your home. The entirety of your monthly power bill goes to them, and they, in turn, compensate the power generating plant and the TDU that they work with.
What to Look for in Electricity Companies
Because you can’t choose your TDU or your power generating plant, your REP is the only company you need to worry about. There are over 120 different REPs, many of which will be available in your area. As such, it’s vital that you know what qualities to look for when you’re ready to make your electricity choice.
Transparency
The last thing you want when you sign up for an electricity plan is to pay more than what you expected. Many companies have hidden rates and fees they don’t disclose. GoodCharlie Energy, however, has sheets and documents displaying exactly how much your electricity rate will be and where your money is going.
Competitive Rates
While electricity is necessary, you don’t want to go broke paying for it. You should look for an electricity plan that fits your budget, and that will save you money down the road.
Green Energy Plans
The option to receive your electricity from a renewable resource is a massive benefit everyone should look for. GoodCharlie Energy has several green energy plans where 100% of your electricity bill is renewable and comes from water, wind, or solar power.
Integrity and Care
Integrity and care are two of the most important ingredients of electricity companies you can trust. Finding a company you know cares about you, your family, and your household is extremely important, and nobody cares more than GoodCharlie.
