About Shop My Power

Who is Shop My Power?

Shop My Power is an independent, non-biased comparison tool designed to help people select their gas or electric company in the states that give consumers the power to choose and compare electricity rates. The people behind Shop My Power have more than 20 years of experience in the energy industry.

What Does Shop My Power Do?

Shop My Power is a free, impartial energy comparison tool that assembles all of the gas and electricity providers in your area based on zip code. At the click of a button, Shop My Power displays all the different energy plans in your zip code, sorted by whatever features are important to you, whether that be price, a fixed or variable rate, or if that company uses green power to supply your energy such as wind, solar, hydroelectric and other sources. Shop My Power takes all the frustration and confusion out of shopping for the best gas or electricity rates.

What's the Catch?

None. There is no cost to the consumer whatsoever for using Shop My Power. The residential rates we display on our website are not marked up in any way.

Electric companies spend millions of dollars marketing to and acquiring customers every year. Shop My Power is paid by the utility company for referring you, the customer, to them when you compare electricity rates. It is ultimately cheaper for these electric companies, and you are guaranteed the lowest published electricity rate for each provider.

Why You Should Use Shop My Power

Finding just the right energy and/or electricity provider for you can be even more difficult than finding the right auto insurance company. With auto insurance, most people know who many of the major providers are, such as State Farm, Allstate, Farmers, Geico and others. Even knowing who the players are, you still have to take the time to call every one of them to get the best plan and coverage for you. It can be exhausting.

With electric companies, other than your default provider such as TXU or Reliant, many people are just not familiar with the dozens of other excellent gas or electricity companies available to them, and, in some cases, each electricity company can have more than a dozen different plans to choose from. There could be more than 200 different electricity plans available in your area! How can you possibly know which plan is right for you when you compare electricity rates?

Knowing this, the creators of Shop My Power designed a comprehensive and extremely user friendly (even for those who do not normally use the Internet for research) energy comparison tool that, in less than 30 seconds, can narrow hundreds of available plans down to just a few based on what is important to you and displays them in an easy-to-read format that is clear, concise, and understandable. There are other resources on the web, but none have all the capabilities that Shop My Power has.
