Midland Energy Plans & Rates

History:  Established in 1881, Midland was originally named Midway Station as it was in between both Fort Worth and El Paso on the Texas and Pacific Railway. In 1884, they changed the town’s name to Midland, as there was a town that already possessed the name of Midway. When oil was discovered in 1923 in the Permian Basin, Midland underwent a transformation, resulting in the city becoming the administrative center of the West Texas oil fields. Although the economy of Midland is still heavily oil-centered, they have also established a place for themselves as a regional telecommunications and distribution center.

What is a good rate per kWh in Midland?

A good rate per kWh in Midland has been lower than usual because of a crash in commodity prices that led to per kWh rates as low as 5 cents and 6 cents on HomeEnergyClub.com. Enrollment in a 24-month, 36-month or 60-month energy plan to lock in current per kWh rates is definitely worth considering because the cost to generate power will increase as commodity prices recover, and residential energy rates will climb. The average price of residential electricity has been about 11 cents per kWh in Texas in recent years.

Where to find objective electric company reviews and ratings in Midland?

Home Energy Club uses the following resources to provide electric company ratings, reviews, and complaint statistics in Midland from independent, objective sources:

• The Public Utility Commission of Texas
• The Better Business Bureau (BBB)
• Google Reviews
• Yelp Reviews
• Home Energy Club/Amazon surveys of Amazon’s customer base

Referring to reviews developed by sites that sell electricity is not recommended because the potential for bias is significant. HomeEnergyClub.com includes reviews and ratings of Midland electric companies only from reliable, independent sources such as the ones named above.

Why is my Midland energy bill so high?

Home Energy Club vets each energy plan and eliminates those with devious gimmicks that cause Midland residents to ask why their energy bill is so high. Besides misleading energy plans, there are several other reasons residents might end up with surprisingly high electricity bills, including the following:

• Expiration of your fixed-price plan. If you don’t renew your fixed price energy plan or enroll in a different plan before expiration of the fixed price plan you’ve had, a high energy bill is almost guaranteed. Energy providers routinely place customers on their most expensive plans when fixed-rate plans expire.
• Rates have been increased by the electric company. If you are on a variable rate plan, your energy company can raise your electricity rates any time. The phrase “wholesale prices” should raise red flags because it is often associated with plans charged at a variable rate, and they lead to unpleasant bill surprises.
• Your energy use is not a match with your energy plan. A common type of mistake residents make is choosing, for example, a plan meant for very spacious homes that consume 2,000 kWh each month but they live in an apartment where average use is 500 kWh or more. It is easier to avoid costly mistakes if Electricity Facts Labels (EFLs) are carefully reviewed to match a plan to your home’s usage. See the EFL guide at HomeEnergyClub.com.
• Other factors that can increase your energy costs include a home that lacks energy efficiency, and large spikes in electricity use, which are typical during scorching Texas summers.
