Energy Sales
Between Texas’s daily electricity production of 97,000 MW when needed and the expected peak summer consumption of 80,000 Mw Texas is the highest among the U.S. states. Its annual consumption is less than production therefor allows Texas to export excess electricity to other states. If Texas was an independent nation, its electricity market would be the 11th largest in the world.

Electricity Deregulation in Texas
As a result of deregulation , most Texas power consumers (those served by a company not owned by a municipality or a utility cooperative) can choose their electricity service from a variety of "retail electric providers" (REPs), including Affordable Electric. The incumbent utility in the area still owns and maintains the local power lines (and is the company to call in the event of a power outage) and is not subject to deregulation. Most customers served by cooperatives or municipal utilities cannot choose an alternate REP. Rates in Texas have been going down substantially in deregulated areas.
Approximately 85% of commercial and industrial consumers have switched power providers at least once. Approximately 40% of residential consumers in deregulated areas have switched from the former incumbent provider to a competitive REP.
“Aggregators" are legal entities that join two or more customers to purchase electricity at reduced rates.
"Brokers" are legal entities that work with multiple Retail Electric Providers in order to shop the market for a competitive rate for their clients.
Affordable Electric is a Retail Energy Aggregator/Broker working hard to secure the lowest rates then passing the savings on to you.
