How delivery charges work in Texas
In the competitive part of Texas you choose a retail electricity provider, but the wires, poles and meters belong to the transmission and distribution utility (TDU) for your area. Every provider passes the TDU's charges through on your bill: a fixed monthly customer and metering charge plus a charge per kWh. They are the same whichever provider you pick. The Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) approves them, and they usually change several times a year through rate cases and cost adjustments such as the transmission cost recovery factor (TCRF, March and September) and the distribution cost recovery factor (DCRF).
Your plan's Electricity Facts Label (EFL) shows whether the advertised price includes the current delivery charges and whether changes are passed through.
