If There’s a Texas Power Outage, Who Should I Call?

When an unexpected power outage takes place, it can cause real-life problems to the unprepared Texas citizen.

However, in case of a power outage, you should call the utility company in your area to find out how long it will last and the current status.

While many may search for terms like ‘Just Energy power outage map’ or ‘Gexa Energy outage map’, ‘Just Energy power outage’, ‘Gexa power outage’, or ‘TriEagle power outage’, it’s not the energy provider which corrects power outages; it’s your Transmission and Distribution Utility (TDU).

You can view the Centerpoint Outage Map for the Houston area and the Oncor Outage Map for the Dallas area.

After calling, you can prepare in case you urgently need a source of energy.

Below is a list of numbers of both the TDU’s and major electric companies in Texas, including the Reliant Energy phone number for power outages among other provider’s phone numbers in case of a power outage.

To research the effect that an outage has on your energy usage in a given month, check your meter usage data at Smart Meter Texas.

You can check vetted Home Energy Club rates and review energy plans from the most established light companies.

And for those wondering, if you face a ‘Gexa power outage’, ‘Just Energy power outage’, or any other related disruptions, always remember to get in touch with your TDU for the quickest resolution.

On Home Energy Club, our cost calculator widget helps you to choose an energy plan by performing detailed calculations so you can quickly compare estimated plan costs based on your historic usage data and publicly-available data. Your actual future bill amounts will depend on your future energy usage, which cannot be precisely determined, so the accuracy of plan cost data cannot be guaranteed. You should always read the details of an energy plan’s Electricity Facts Label (EFL) to decide if it’s a fit for your home.

By using the widget, you are certifying that you are the person whose name you have entered into the website and have authorization to access usage data for the address you entered.
