ComparePower

Electricity plan comparison marketplace for Texas. Aggregates rates across multiple providers with zero fees to the user.

Why Miners Use It

  • Texas deregulated electricity market has dozens of retail providers with varying rate structures
  • Mining profitability is highly sensitive to power cost; saving even 5 cents per kWh changes ROI significantly
  • Plans include Facts Label, Terms of Service, and Your Rights as a Consumer (YRAAC) for transparency
  • Ability to switch providers anytime without interruption

Real-World Example

A Round Rock Bitcoiner reported saving approximately $0.05/kWh by switching plans via ComparePower. On a 3,300-watt ASIC running continuously, that translates to roughly $130+/month in savings.

Caveats

  • Only available in Texas (deregulated areas)
  • Rate structures vary: fixed, variable, indexed; read the plan details carefully
  • Advertised rates often assume specific usage tiers; miners typically exceed baseline assumptions
