Cheapest prepaid electricity plan in Texas

The cheapest prepaid plan we have priced in Texas is PRONTO POWER Power To Choose at 15.9¢/kWh at 1,000 kWh a month on CenterPoint (17.6¢/kWh at 500 kWh, 15.1¢/kWh at 2,000 kWh, variable rate, 1 months), as listed on Power to Choose on 2026-11-13; the cheapest in each of the 5 zones with three or more such plans is ranked below.

A Texas price only means something inside its delivery zone, so the ranking is per zone and the statewide sentence names the lowest of the zone winners.

Is the listed average price what I will pay?
It is the average the retailer states on its Electricity Facts Label at that exact usage, delivery charges included. Use a different number of kilowatt-hours and the average moves, which is why the 500 and 2,000 kWh figures are shown with it.
