Princeton, TX
Ambit Energy Electric Service, Rates & Plans

Princeton is a fast-growing community in Collin County, located north of Dallas in the heart of North Texas. When you move to Princeton, you'll need to contact Oncor Electric Delivery for any power outages or issues with poles, wires, and meters—Oncor is the regulated utility that owns and maintains the physical infrastructure. For your electricity plan, rates, and billing, you'll work with Ambit Energy as your retail provider. This split between the transmission company and the retail provider is standard for Texas's deregulated electricity market and gives you the flexibility to choose your power plan while Oncor handles emergency service and infrastructure. Princeton's hot summers demand significant air conditioning usage, and while winters are mild, you'll still use electricity year-round. Most households in the area consume between 1,200 and 2,000 kilowatt-hours monthly over a 12-month period. When shopping for an electricity plan with Ambit Energy, focus on rates advertised at the 1,000 to 2,000 kWh tier rather than the heavily promoted 500 kWh tier, since that's where actual household consumption falls and where you'll find the best value over a full contract year.
