Did You Know?

HISTORICAL

Ringgold was established in 1882 as a railroad town along the Fort Worth and Denver City Railway line. The town was named after Major Samuel Ringgold, a hero of the Mexican-American War who died at the Battle of Palo Alto in 1846, making it one of the few Texas towns named after a military figure from that conflict.

RECENT

In 2020, Ringgold completed a major infrastructure improvement project that upgraded its water and sewer systems with federal rural development grants. The $1.2 million project modernized the town's aging utilities and improved water quality for all residents, representing the largest municipal investment in the town's modern history.

FAMOUS PEOPLE

Ringgold was the childhood home of legendary country music songwriter Cindy Walker, who penned classics like 'You Don't Know Me' and 'Dream Baby' for artists including Patsy Cline, Roy Orbison, and Bob Wills. Walker wrote over 400 songs during her career and was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1997.

DID YOU KNOW

Despite having a population of only 75 people, Ringgold operates one of the smallest incorporated post offices in Texas and has maintained continuous postal service since 1883. The current postmaster serves a route that covers over 50 square miles of rural Montague County, making it one of the most geographically extensive postal routes per capita in the state.

CULTURAL

Ringgold hosts an annual 'Ghost Town Days' festival every October that draws visitors from across North Texas to celebrate its frontier heritage. The event features period costume contests, old-west reenactments, and tours of historic buildings, transforming the tiny town into a bustling celebration that temporarily increases its population by over 1,000 percent for the weekend.

How to Find the Best Energy Plan in Ringgold

#1 rule: Know your usage!

Knowing the amount of electricity you will use monthly is the best way to find a deal on energy in Ringgold. Why does this matter?

The "price per kWh" you see electricity companies advertising is for an exact monthly usage (typically 2000 kWh).

Every plan has a different calculation for how your monthly bill is computed, and your monthly bill will be determined by how much power you use in the month.

Unless you match the exact advertised usage each month, you will pay a "price per kWh" different than the one you saw advertised when you enrolled.

Fortunately, there's a better way to select your electricity company.

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

Better still, 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 find the right electricity rate plan for your home.

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

We put you in the driver's seat, taking what would amount to hours of research, spreadsheets, and computations across hundreds of offers and assisting you step-by-step with the electricity plan that's best for your household's consumption.

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

We then help you order your plan with your chosen electricity company without ever having to leave our service.

The takeaway here is you must understand your expected or historical usage before ordering 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 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 Ringgold: Setting up Electricity

If this is your first time setting up electricity service in Ringgold, 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 can 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 switch plans.

Switching Electricity Companies in Ringgold

Switching is good. Market conditions are constantly changing, so it is essential to shop for a lower price each year when your contract is about to expire.

Your existing energy provider will raise your energy rate once your term 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 electricity providers.

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 switch, your new energy company will handle everything, including terminating service with your previous provider.

Your lights stay on when you switch. Electricity in Ringgold 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 choose any date within 14 days of your contract expiration without an "early cancellation" fee. 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 companies 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 to break 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 lowest price.

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