SoFed Better Rate - 10
SOUTHERN FEDERAL POWER LLC · 10-month contract · fixed rate · Texas-New Mexico Power delivery area
At 1,000 kilowatt hours a month spread across a Texas year, this plan costs $1,540.05 over twelve months — an average of $128.34 a month, or 12.8¢ per kilowatt hour all in. That makes it the 32nd cheapest of the 166 plans sold in Texas-New Mexico Power territory.
These figures are estimated. We could not read SOUTHERN FEDERAL POWER LLC’s fact label cleanly enough to trust a line-by-line reconstruction, so the rate structure here is solved from the three prices Power to Choose publishes. It reproduces those three points exactly but may miss a condition that only bites at other usage levels. Read the label yourself.

The published comparison points
Checking our arithmetic against theirs
Power to Choose makes every retailer publish an average price at exactly 500, 1,000 and 2,000 kilowatt hours a month. Those are the three numbers we recompute from the fact label; when ours land on theirs we know we have read the label correctly. They assume flat usage every month, which is why they differ from the seasonal figures above.
| Usage | They advertise | We compute | Monthly bill | A year |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 500 kWh a month | 14.1¢ | 14.1¢ | $70.50 | $846 |
| 1,000 kWh a month | 12.8¢ | 12.8¢ | $128.34 | $1,540.08 |
| 2,000 kWh a month | 12.2¢ | 12.2¢ | $244 | $2,928 |
What is actually in this plan
The fine print, in plain English
- Base charge
- $12.67 every month before you use any electricity at all. Over a year that is $152.04.
- Energy charge
- 11.567¢ per kilowatt hour, the same at any usage.
- Bill credits
- None. Nothing to qualify for and nothing to lose.
- Minimum usage fee
- None.
- TNMP delivery charges
- Included in the energy charge above. TNMP still charges roughly $8 a month plus 6.4300¢ per kWh; the retailer has folded it in rather than billing it separately.
- Early termination fee
- $249 if you leave before the end of the 10-month term. Worth comparing against what you would save by switching.
- Notes from the label
- fact label was read but did not reproduce the published prices reconstructed as a flat-rate plan
