Electricity in Irving, Texas
Yes, most Irving homes can pick their electricity provider. Oncor delivers the power and handles outages no matter who you choose. To shop, pull your monthly kWh from a past bill and compare plans for your ZIP on Power to Choose, the state's free, official comparison site. Read each plan's EFL first.

Who delivers your power
Oncor delivers the power.
The delivery utility owns the poles and wires, reads the meter, and restores power after an outage. You do not pick that company. You pick the retail provider that sells the energy and sends the bill.
Delivery charges are set in a regulated tariff and passed through on your bill. We are not listing a cents-per-kWh figure here.
How to compare in three steps
Find your utility, or confirm it, by entering your ZIP on Power to Choose.
Read the Electricity Facts Label at your own monthly usage, not at a usage number you never hit. The guide on reading an EFL walks through the 500, 1,000, and 2,000 kWh columns.
Check the contract length and the fees, including what happens when the contract ends. Fixed and variable plans behave differently there.
Moving to Irving?
Your current plan does not automatically follow you to a new address. Check whether the new address can choose, then set a start date for move-in day and stop service at the old place.
