What is WattTrim
WattTrim is a plan comparison audit powered by GridWise Audit, one of the largest electricity plan databases in Texas - 1,500+ plans and growing across all six TDU service areas, including exclusive broker-negotiated rates not found on PowerToChoose.org.
The more plans we compare, the better the results for Texans.
You won't find "Top Pick" or "Recommended" labels here. A plan that saves one household $500 a year could cost the next one more. Your best plan depends entirely on how you use electricity, and the only way to find it is to run the numbers on your actual usage data against all available plans, not just a curated set.
Because we compare against every available plan, not every provider pays us a commission. Your top results might be ones that earn us nothing, and we're good with that - that is the cost of transparency. The right plan for you will always outrank the profitable one for us. You can read about how we calculate results here.

Your Usage, Decoded
- 12-month consumption breakdown showing seasonal shifts to determine if a bill credit plan is optimal or would cost you more
- Usage analysis: daily and hourly patterns to see if you benefit from weekend and day/night plans
Personalized Plan Recommendations
- Side-by-side comparison of your current plan against 1,500+ options across all 6 Texas TDU service areas
- Plans ranked by your actual usage, not based on a single bill or monthly averages
- Plan recommendations provided for all term lengths: 3, 6, 12, 24, and 36 months
- Hidden fee detection including high service fees, with your existing early termination fee factored into presented savings to prevent a costly switch
Solar Customer Extras
- Export credit and buy vs sell rate analysis using real ERCOT settlement prices, so you get the most out of your solar and avoid lower than expected returns
- VPP credit evaluation if you have a home battery. Battery brand improves savings accuracy by including only VPP credits you actually qualify for. Plans with strong rates and buyback can still be recommended on their own merits
