Frequently Asked Questions

Is a professional bill analysis worth it for small businesses?

Absolutely—for bills over $1,000/month, audits uncover 10-20% savings through fee disputes or plan optimizations. At Energy Broker TX, our free reviews demystify deregulated bills and connect you to better rates via reverse auctions. Ready to check yours? Get a no-obligation analysis today.

How do demand charges work, and can I reduce them?

Demand charges bill your highest 15-minute peak (in kW), funding grid capacity. Shift loads to off-peak hours (e.g., evenings) or install sub-meters to monitor. Efficiency upgrades like variable-speed motors cut peaks by 15-25%; explore demand response programs for credits during ERCOT highs.

What should I do if I spot an error on my bill?

Contact your provider immediately for a reread or correction—PUC rules require responses within 10 days. Common errors include wrong meter reads or unapplied credits. Document everything; if unresolved, file a free PUC complaint. Regular audits prevent recurrence, potentially saving 5-15% annually.

What are the most common hidden fees on a Texas commercial electricity bill?

Hidden fees like demand charges (based on peak usage), transmission surcharges, and minimum usage penalties can add 20-40% to your bill. Demand charges alone often surprise businesses with high-load operations—review your kWh vs. kW breakdown to spot them. A quick audit can reveal overcharges; start by comparing your rate to ERCOT averages for savings.
