HISTORICAL

Pearsall was founded in 1883 when the International-Great Northern Railroad established a station here, naming it after Thomas Pearsall, a railroad construction contractor. The town quickly became a major shipping point for cattle ranchers in South Texas, with the railroad bringing prosperity and growth to what had been empty prairie land.

RECENT

In 2019, Pearsall completed a major downtown revitalization project that restored several historic buildings along Oak Street and created a new community plaza. The $2.3 million project included new sidewalks, period lighting, and landscaping that has attracted new businesses and restaurants to the historic downtown core.

FAMOUS PEOPLE

How to Find the Best Energy Plan in Pearsall

#1 rule: Determine what your usage is!

Determining how much electricity you will consume month-to-month is the ideal way to find a deal on electricity in Pearsall. Why is this important?

The rate electricity companies advertise for an exact monthly usage (typically 1000 kWh).

Every plan uses a different equation for how your monthly bill is calculated, and your monthly bill will be determined by how much power you use in a month.

Unless you use the advertised amount each month, you will pay a "price per kWh" different than what you observed when enrolled.

Thankfully, there's a better way to shop for an electricity plan.

Calculating your expected monthly bill based on estimated monthly usage, then comparing plans by the total monthly bill is the best way to shop for the lowest rate for you.

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 ideal way to determine the right energy plan for your home.

Compare Power does all the complicated math for you in an instant. What could take you hours on a spreadsheet is done in a few moments.

We put the power in your hands, taking what would amount to hours of investigation, spreadsheets, and calculations across hundreds of offers, and navigate you step-by-step to the electricity rate plan that's best for your household's usage.

We clarify the fine print, disclosing the various charges, so you'll know exactly where your money is going and what to expect on your bill.

We then help you order your plan with your chosen energy company without leaving our service.

The bottom line is you should understand your expected or historical usage before choosing the best 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 monthly energy usage.

Although knowing the previous 12 months of usage is optimum, it is far better to estimate the average energy consumption than to select the first electricity provider that you see advertised. After all, you have no idea how much energy you will use at that point.

Use Compare Power to shop for the best electricity plan for your specific usage.

Moving to Pearsall: Setting up Electricity

If this is your first time setting up electricity service in Pearsall, 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: You can estimate your monthly usage if you can't obtain a usage history. Utilize our "Help Me Choose" tool when you enter your zip code below, and we'll help you evaluate your home's usage.

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 Pearsall

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

Your existing electricity provider will generally raise your energy rate once your term expires. If you fail to act, you'll be left on a month-to-month rate significantly higher than the plan you signed up for.

Before renewing your contract, shop the rates of competing energy companies.

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

Switching is easy:

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

When you decide to switch, your new energy provider will take care of everything for you, including canceling service with your previous provider.

Your lights stay on when you switch. Electricity in Pearsall 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 providers. Therefore the reliability of your service is not affected.

You can choose any date up to 14 days before your contract's end date without an "early cancellation" fee. That's Texas Law.

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

And even if you're well inside your contract, savings achieved on your monthly bill by switching companies may outweigh the fee of breaking your existing contract.

If you're ready to switch and would like to know how to find the best plan remember that knowing your usage is the best way to find the best rate.

You will want to gather your historical usage for the past 12 months to determine the best plan with the lowest rate for your household.
