This information is compiled and provided by the Public Utility Commission of Texas from publicly available information from the Retail Electric Providers and PUC approved price to beat rates. The bill shown on this sheet was
compiled from the terms of service of the REPs and is inclusive of all fixed and variable charges that are expected to be assessed in the month shown. The PUC makes no recommendations with respect to any REP. Although
we believe that these prices are accurate, the PUC makes no warranty that the prices in this table are currently being offered. Additionally, the bills under price to beat service increase significantly during summer months due to
seasonal rates. Please contact the relevant REP for their current pricing offers and terms of service. Information on how to select a REP and contact information for REPs is located at www.powertochoose.org.
