The problem

The Texas electricity market is built to confuse you

Texas has some of the most competitive electricity prices in the country — if you know where to look. Most households don’t, and that’s by design.

Thousands of look-alike plans

Teaser rates, bill credits that vanish if you use one kWh too few, tiered pricing, minimum-usage fees — the fine print is where your money goes.

Auto-renewals at worst-case rates

Miss one expiration notice and your provider quietly rolls you onto a month-to-month rate that can be double what you were paying.

“Cheap” rates that aren’t

Comparison sites are often paid by the providers they list. The plan that looks cheapest at 1,000 kWh can be the most expensive at your real usage.

The solution

What is Energy Ogre?

Energy Ogre is a Texas-based membership service — sometimes called a “personal electricity shopper” — that acts only for you, the consumer. It doesn’t take commissions from retail electricity providers, so its only incentive is finding you the genuinely cheapest plan that fits how your home actually uses power.

Its algorithms crunch the market’s thousands of plans against your real usage profile, then a team of humans reviews the pick before your enrollment, switch, and future renewals are all handled for you.

  • Paid only by members — never by providersNo kickbacks, no lead-selling, no biased rankings.
  • Access to exclusive plansRates you won’t find on Power to Choose or comparison sites.
  • End-to-end plan managementEnrollment, switching, contract timing and renewals — done for you.

Quick

Signing up takes about 10 minutes. After that, the service runs itself in the background.

Simple

One membership replaces hours of comparing fine print, spread sheets and guesswork.

Secure

Your account data is protected, and your utility’s wires and reliability never change.

Hassle-free

Switching is seamless — lights stay on, and every future renewal is negotiated for you.

Who it’s for

Built for busy Texans

If you live in a deregulated part of Texas and pay an electric bill, the math usually works in your favor.

Homeowners

Higher usage means bigger savings potential — the group Energy Ogre was built for.

Renters & apartments

Short-term plans handled and switched for you, so moving never costs you a fortune.

Small businesses

Commercial plans are notoriously tricky — the Ogre shops those too, at no extra cost.

Snowbirds

Away for months? Plans that suit empty months — and no expiring contracts to chase.

Quick answers

Questions Texans ask first

The short versions. The full list lives on our FAQ page.

Is Energy Ogre legit?
Yes. Energy Ogre has served 446,000+ Texas homes and businesses and reports $779 million in cumulative member savings since 2018. It’s an accredited, membership-based service paid only by its members — never by electricity providers.
How much can I actually save?
Energy Ogre says members can lower their bills by up to 40%. Typical results depend on your current plan and usage — most people who are auto-renewed or on month-to-month rates have the most room to save. See our savings page for an illustrative estimate.
What does the membership cost?
$12 a month for most homes, or $130 a year (about two months free). There are no other fees from Energy Ogre, and commercial plans are included with business memberships. Check energyogre.com for current pricing.
Will my power go out when I switch?
No. Your local utility still delivers power over the same poles and wires — only the billing company changes. Switching is a paperwork change, not a physical one.
What if I’m stuck in a contract?
Energy Ogre factors early-termination fees into the math. If leaving now saves you more than the fee, it will say so; if not, it schedules your move for the moment your contract ends so you never roll into a penalty rate.
