Texas TDU Delivery Rates
Get current TDU delivery rates for one or all six Texas utilities (Oncor, CenterPoint, AEP Texas Central, AEP Texas North, TNMP, Lubbock Power & Light). Returns per-kWh delivery rate and fixed monthly base fee for each utility — these charges appear on every Texas electricity bill regardless of which retailer the customer chose. Backed by Light API rate sheets.
Every Texas electricity bill has two parts:
- Energy charges from your retailer (Meter, TXU, Reliant, etc.)
- Delivery charges from your utility company / TDU (Oncor, CenterPoint, etc.)
The delivery side is regulated by the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) and is the same regardless of which retailer the customer picks. Most plan-comparison and bill-modeling tools need these numbers — without them, "I save $X on my bill" estimates are off by $30-50/month.
This tool returns:
- Variable rate in cents per kilowatt-hour (kWh) — applied to every kWh you import from the grid
- Fixed monthly base fee in dollars — charged regardless of usage
Pass a single utility code or omit to get all six. Rates are pulled from Light's plan rate sheets on each call (no caching), so the values reflect the current PUCT-approved tariffs.
Why this tool exists: Light API isn't publicly accessible. Any agent modeling a Texas electricity bill needs these numbers — without them, the math is off by the cost of the delivery component.
