Oncor is the primary utility provider for the Permian Basin. Because of the deregulation of the Texas electricity market, consumers can choose which company they want to buy their electricity from. The companies that sell electricity are called Retail Electric Providers (REP). Oncor owns, operates, and maintains the poles, wires, and meters used to deliver electricity from the power plants to homes and businesses for the REP. Oncor does not buy or sell electricity, they just deliver the electricity. Below is a chart that shows the average rates for all sectors last year in the state of Texas.
