How to Choose an Electricity Plan for a Texas Apartment
Moving into a new apartment in Texas comes with plenty of decisions, and choosing the right energy plan is one of the most important. Unlike a large house, an apartment has unique energy needs. Here is how to find a plan that fits your space and your lifestyle:
- Check Your Average Usage: Most apartments in Texas fall into the 500 kWh or 1,000 kWh usage categories. When reviewing a plan’s Electricity Facts Label (EFL), look specifically at the rates for these lower tiers. Some plans that look cheap for large homes actually have higher rates for smaller spaces.
- Understand Plan Types:
- Fixed-Rate Plans: These offer a set price for your electricity throughout your contract. They’re perfect for renters who want a predictable monthly budget.
- Variable-Rate Plans: These offer flexibility with no long-term commitment, which can be helpful if you are between moves, though prices may change monthly.
- Look for “Renter-Friendly” Features: We know renters value flexibility. Look for plans that allow you to transfer your service to a new address for free if you move within Texas.
- Prioritize Transparency: Avoid plans with “hidden” base charges that kick in only if you use a certain amount of power. At Amigo Energy, we believe in straightforward pricing, so you always know what to expect.

Apartment Electricity FAQs
Is the Apartment Essentials plan for renters or owners?
The Apartment Essentials plan is a residential fixed-rate product designed for anyone living in a smaller space, such as an apartment or condo. While it is a favorite for renters due to its optimized rates for lower energy consumption, any residential customer in a deregulated Texas market can enroll if the plan fits their energy usage profile.
Does the Apartment Essentials plan have an early termination fee?
One of the best features of this specific plan is that it has a $0 Exit Fee. While we ask that you call us before canceling your 12-month agreement, you will not be charged a penalty for terminating your service early. This provides the ultimate flexibility for renters who may need to move unexpectedly.
How can I reduce my apartment’s energy bill in Texas?
Reducing your energy bill starts with smart habits and the right plan. Here are the most effective ways to lower your costs:
- Adjust Your Thermostat: In the Texas heat, keep your AC at 78°F while you are home and higher when you are away.
- Use LED Bulbs: These use significantly less energy and produce less heat than traditional bulbs, which helps keep your apartment cooler.
- Upgrade to a Smart Plan: Consider a Nights Free or Weekends Free plan if you are away at work during the day. Shifting your heavy appliance use (like laundry or the dishwasher) to free hours can lead to significant monthly benefits.
- Seal Gaps: Check for drafts around your apartment windows and doors. Using a simple door draft stopper can keep the cool air in and the Texas heat out.
