Did You Know?

HISTORICAL

Tivoli was founded in 1907 by Italian immigrants who named the town after the famous Italian resort city of Tivoli near Rome. The settlers were drawn to the area by the promise of fertile farmland and the opportunity to establish a new community that would preserve their Italian heritage while embracing American opportunities.

RECENT

In 2020, Tivoli completed a major infrastructure upgrade that brought high-speed fiber internet to this tiny town of fewer than 500 residents. This project, funded through a rural development grant, has attracted several remote workers and small tech businesses to relocate to the area, breathing new economic life into the historic community.

FAMOUS PEOPLE

Country music star George Strait's grandfather owned a ranch near Tivoli, and the future 'King of Country Music' spent many childhood summers in the area learning to rope cattle and ride horses. Strait has often credited these formative experiences in the Tivoli countryside with inspiring many of his most authentic songs about rural Texas life.

DID YOU KNOW

Tivoli is home to one of the last remaining original Italian-style bocce ball courts in Texas, built by the town's founders in 1908 using clay imported directly from Italy. The court is still used every Sunday by descendants of the original Italian families, and the annual Tivoli Bocce Tournament draws players from across the Gulf Coast region who compete for a trophy made from Carrara marble.

CULTURAL

Every October, Tivoli hosts the 'Festa Italiana,' a celebration that has continued uninterrupted for over 100 years, making it one of the oldest Italian heritage festivals in Texas. The festival features authentic recipes passed down through generations, including a secret family marinara sauce recipe that local legend claims was brought directly from the old country and has never been written down, only taught from mother to daughter.

How to Find the Best Energy Plan in Tivoli

#1 rule: Determine what your usage is!

Determining the energy you will use month-to-month is the ideal way to shop for power in Tivoli. Why does this matter?

The rate electricity companies advertise for an exact monthly usage (usually 2000 kWh).

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

Unless you match the exact advertised usage each month, you will end up paying an effective "price per kWh" different than what you saw when you enrolled.

Fortunately, there's a better way to shop for energy companies.

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

Even better, 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 electricity plan for your home.

Compare Power does all this math for you instantly. What could take you hours on a spreadsheet is solved in moments.

We put you in the driver's seat, taking what would amount to hours of investigation, spreadsheets, and computations across hundreds of offers and guide you step-by-step to the energy plan that's best for your household's usage.

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

We then assist you in ordering your plan with your selected power company without ever having to leave our service.

The bottom line is you must understand your expected or historical usage before picking 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 usage history. In that case, you can always estimate your average monthly energy usage.

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 electricity provider at a specific usage that isn't what you'll consume.

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

Moving to Tivoli: Setting up Electricity

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

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.

Sign-up for a plan instantly through Compare Power. We will remind you when it's time to come back to switch and save at the end of the plan term you decide on.

Switching Electricity Companies in Tivoli

Switching is good. Market conditions are constantly changing, so it is essential to shop for a lower rate each year when your contract is close to expiring.

Your existing electricity company will typically raise your energy 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 power supply
  • It takes just minutes

When you switch, your new electricity provider will handle everything, including canceling service with your previous provider.

Your lights stay on when you switch. Electricity in Tivoli is all delivered by the Oncor Transmission and Distribution Utility.

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

You can choose any date within 14 days of your contract expiration without an "early termination" penalty. That's Texas Law.

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 understanding your usage is the best way to find the lowest rate.

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