Did You Know?

HISTORICAL

Lipan was founded in 1876 and named after the Lipan Apache tribe that once roamed the area. The town was established as a railroad stop on the Texas and Pacific Railway, serving as a crucial shipping point for cattle ranchers in Hood County during the late 1800s cattle boom.

RECENT

In 2020, Lipan completed a major downtown revitalization project that restored several historic buildings along Main Street, including the conversion of the old general store into a community center. The project was funded through a combination of state grants and local fundraising efforts that brought the small community together.

FAMOUS PEOPLE

Country music singer and songwriter Red Steagall, known as the 'Cowboy Poet of Texas,' spent part of his childhood in the Lipan area. He later became the official Cowboy Poet of Texas and was inducted into the Texas Country Music Hall of Fame, often crediting his rural Hood County upbringing for inspiring his Western-themed music.

DID YOU KNOW

Lipan is home to one of the smallest incorporated cities in Texas with its own municipal government, yet it maintains its own police force, fire department, and city services despite having fewer than 200 residents. The city covers only about 0.4 square miles, making it possible to walk from one city limit to the other in less than 10 minutes.

CULTURAL

Every October, Lipan hosts the annual 'Lipan Stew Cook-off and Fall Festival' where residents compete in making traditional cowboy stew recipes passed down through generations. The event draws visitors from across Hood County and features live country music, horseshoe tournaments, and a parade down Main Street that includes vintage tractors and local high school bands.

How to Find the Best Energy Plan in Lipan

#1 rule: Know your usage!

Knowing how much electricity you will use in a month is the best way to find a deal on energy in Lipan. Why should you care?

The "price per kWh" you see energy companies advertising is for an exact monthly usage (typically 1000 kWh).

Every plan uses a different calculation for how your monthly statement is determined, and your monthly bill will vary depending on how much energy you use in the month.

Unless you match the advertised usage each month, you will pay a "price per kWh" different than what you saw when you signed up.

Fortunately, there's a better way to choose your electricity provider.

Calculating your total monthly bill based on anticipated monthly usage, then comparing options by total monthly cost is the best way to shop for the lowest rate for your home.

Better yet, if you have a year of usage history for your household, you can compare plans by total annual cost. This annualized method considers the changes in usage between the summer and winter months and is the best way to determine the ideal energy plan for your home.

Compare Power does all the complicated math for you in an instant. What takes hours inside a spreadsheet is now done in a few moments.

We put you in the driver's seat, taking what would amount to hours of investigation, spreadsheets, and calculations across hundreds of plans and assisting you step-by-step with the electricity plan that's best for your home's usage.

We clarify the details, disclosing the various charges, so you'll know precisely where your money is going and what to anticipate on your bill.

We then assist you in signing up with your selected electricity provider without leaving our service.

The bottom line is you should know your expected or historical usage before choosing the right electricity plan for your home.

If you don't know your usage, estimate

Suppose you recently purchased a home or business or cannot obtain 12 months of usage history. In that case, you can always estimate your average energy in any given month.

While not as optimal as having all the previous 12 months of usage, estimating your average usage is better than blindly choosing the first plan you see advertised by an energy company at a specific usage that isn't what you'll consume.

Use Compare Power to find the best energy plan for your specific usage.

Moving to Lipan: Setting up Electricity

If this is your first time setting up electricity service in Lipan, to get the best rate, you need to get the previous 12 months of energy usage for your new home.

Ask the previous homeowner to provide you with their past 12 months of usage.

This information is readily found in recent billing statements.

Acquiring usage for the past 12 months may take effort, but the time (and savings) will be well worth it.

Once you have historical usage, Compare Power will do the math instantly to help you find the best plan for your home's usage pattern.

Note: If you cannot obtain historical usage information, a second option would be to estimate your future usage using our "Help Me Choose" tool. By simply entering your zip code, the tool will be able to assess your home's projected electricity consumption.

By signing up for a plan through Compare Power, you will receive automated reminders when it's time to renew your existing plan or possibly switch plans.

Switching Electricity Companies in Lipan

Switching is good. Market conditions are constantly in flux, so shopping for a lower rate each year is vital when your contract expires.

Your existing electricity provider will typically raise your electricity rate once your contract expires. If you do not act, you'll be left on a month-to-month rate significantly more than the plan you signed up for.

Before renewing your contract, check the rates of competing energy providers.

Switching can save you hundreds or thousands of dollars yearly on your electricity bill.

Switching is easy:

  • You don't have to contact your current company to cancel (no "break-up call")
  • No one comes to your home
  • There is no disruption in your electricity supply
  • It takes just minutes

When you switch, your new electricity provider will cover everything, including terminating service with your previous company.

There is no loss of power when you switch. Electricity in Lipan is all delivered by the Oncor Transmission and Distribution Utility.

The wires and poles that deliver electricity to your home do not change when you switch electricity companies. Therefore the reliability of your service is not affected.

You can pick any date within 14 days of your contract expiration without an "early cancellation" penalty. Texas law protects you here.

If you're still under contract, find out how many months remain on your contract. You can set a future start date with most providers up to 6o days in advance.

The amount saved each month by switching to a different electricity company may outweigh the one-time fee to get out of your contract early.

If you're ready to switch and want to find the best plan, remember that knowing your usage is the best way to find the lowest price.

Keep in mind that when you get ready to switch and you want to know the most efficient way to find the right plan at the best rate, it is essential that you first understand your usage. To accomplish that, you must collect the usage history for the past 12 months.
