As of 2002, electric deregulation has given many people in Texas the opportunity to choose from which retail provider to buy their electricity. Through competitive pricing, these Retail Electric Providers (REPs) offer a tantalizing choice for electric consumers.
So how exactly does this deregulation work?
To put it in simple terms, there are three areas of electric service: Generation, transmission and distribution, and retail sales.
- Generation is the actual electricity production from power plants across Texas.
- Transmission and distribution moves the electricity to your home and is still taken care of by the same local providers who have maintained poles, lines, meters, and delivery for decades.
- And retail sales is provided by companies that offer billing solutions and customer service for the electricity produced by the generation companies and provided by the transmission and distribution companies.
When we talk about deregulation as it applies to you and Simple Power, we're talking about the retail sales part of the process.
Because you now have a say in which electric provider you choose, you're able to really focus on what you want to get out of your electric service… namely saving money. Simple Power offers you the effortless choice to not just save money, but to enjoy friendly customer service and easy to understand billing.
