Your delivery utility

Texas has a competitive retail electricity market: you choose who you buy power from, but you don't choose who delivers it. Delivery is a monopoly — the local wires company, or “TDU”. Its rates are set by the Public Utility Commission of Texas, and its delivery charges appear on every bill in its territory, whichever retail provider you signed up with. That makes the case below the one that can change your bill regardless of your plan.
