ELECTRICITY RATES BY HOUSING IN DALLAS
Find the right plan for your home
In Dallas, single-family homes make up 42% of housing, averaging about 2,261 sq ft and roughly 1,225 kWh per month, where APGE's SimpleSaver 9 at 9.4¢/kWh (about $115/month) is the lowest-cost option in our comparison for that usage level. Large apartment complexes (10+ units), representing 38% of housing at roughly 517 kWh per month, align with Just Energy's Simple Value – 24 at 10.9¢/kWh (about $56/month). Residents should match their plan to their own consumption, since the cheapest rate for one housing type may not be the lowest total cost for another.

TYPES OF ENERGY PLANS
Electricity plan types available in Dallas
Fixed-rate plans
Fixed-rate plans make up 109 of the 115 plans in the Dallas market, with the cheapest at 7.2¢/kWh and an average of 15.15¢/kWh. Locked per-kWh rates keep costs predictable across Dallas summers, when air conditioning drives peak usage.
Variable-rate plans
No variable-rate or month-to-month plans were listed in Dallas market data, so the average price is not available for comparison. Variable-rate pricing tracks wholesale market conditions, which can shift sharply during Dallas heat waves when ERCOT demand peaks.
Renewable energy
113 renewable energy plans are offered in Dallas, 22 of which are 100% green, with an average of 15.24¢/kWh. The green premium sits at -0.02¢ relative to the market average, so renewable plans are priced close to conventional options.
Prepaid plans
Two prepaid plans are listed in Dallas, averaging 19.68¢/kWh, which is higher than the overall market average. Prepaid plans require payment in advance and typically disconnect service when the balance runs out, which matters during Dallas summer heat.
Time-of-use plans
Four time-of-use plans in Dallas average 15.96¢/kWh and charge rates that vary by time of day. Households that shift laundry, dishwashing, or EV charging away from afternoon peak hours may reduce costs, while heavy afternoon air conditioning use can raise bills.
Free nights & weekends
Free nights and weekends plans waive per-kWh charges during set off-peak hours, usually overnight and on weekends. Market data for this category is not reported separately, so eligibility depends on usage timing and the plan's specific terms.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Common questions about energy in Dallas
As of Oct 24th, 2026, the cheapest electricity rate in Dallas is APGE's SimpleSaver 9 at 7.2¢/kWh. That is well below the market average of 15.26¢/kWh across 115 available plans, so shoppers can save considerably by comparing options.
Dallas summers are long and hot, driving heavy air conditioning use that can push monthly bills higher than in milder cities. Because most homes use around 1225 kWh per month, cooling costs can be significant. Choosing a plan with predictable rates or time-of-use options can help manage summer peaks.
Single-family homes make up 42% of Dallas housing, and most use about 1225 kWh monthly, so a 2000 kWh plan tier is recommended. With 113 of 115 plans offering green energy priced virtually level with the market average, choosing green power costs little extra.
Compare the 115 available Dallas plans and switch from the 15.26¢/kWh market average toward lower-rate options like the 7.2¢/kWh SimpleSaver 9. Then set your thermostat higher when away, run appliances during off-peak hours, and seal air leaks to cut your roughly 1225 kWh monthly usage.
