[QUOTE="1shott, post: 3526979, member: 29"] Texas has a deregulated power grid. You would shop power suppliers and sign a contract with that provider. You can get fixed rates or adjustable rate contracts. In the event you had a adjustable rate contract, you would pay in the event of a price increase to the supplier what ever the max is on your contract. Thats where some folks are in a bind, the cost of power to the energy companies increased in some cases to $9,000 a MWH, leading to those high energy bills. Here in oklahoma we have a regulated energy grid. Take nat gas, the gas company that I use, Centerpoint, formally arkla, is forbidden by state law from making a profit on the gas it sells me. They can charge me the rate they paid for the gas but cannot make a profit off of the gas, thats why I see lines on my bill for delivery fee, meter fee and of course a customer fee, LOL. [/QUOTE]
