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
