Understanding ERCOT Pricing

How Texas Pricing Works

ERCOT operates a nodal market with settlement point prices (SPPs) that reflect real-time wholesale costs. Commercial customers typically buy fixed-rate contracts that are 10-25% below the utility's "price-to-beat" rate.

Why Prices Vary by Zone

West Texas often has the lowest prices due to abundant wind generation, while Houston and Dallas zones may be higher due to transmission congestion and higher demand. South Texas benefits from proximity to gas plants.
