Tell your daughter to visit that website and pick a reputable provider that meets the desired criteria. I have been pleasantly surprised by many of the lesser known companies with high renewables in their mix (fine to work with, and equal or lower cost). However, do not take rates at face value at many companies game the system to show cheap rates at the specific thresholds listed on the website (e.g., big credit for <=1000 kWh, but rate substantially increases after that).

Centerpoint makes the best electrons and gas.
The city makes the best water.
Comcast makes the best internet.
Not sure what you mean by "etc..."

If she doesn't want to worry about shopping for a new electricity provider every time the electricity contact runs up and auto renews at a 50% increase, she can sign up for energy ogre and pay them $10/month to sign her up for what should be the cheapest plan available.

Griddy for electricity. This year was ok. August was a blood bath last year. Depends on how often and what time their home.

No offense, and I may be completely wrong, but I doubt someone who's parent is online looking for options on electricity and water is going to be on top of their electricity usage enough for griddy. Could almost guarantee $500 bills in the summer.

If she will go to energy Ogre, www.energyogre.com/r/cru, she will get a great rate for electricity and it is very convenient. Lots of happy texags customers!!!

My cousin Jerry Don is a lineman over at HL&P. He can tie her in, but he'll have to take care of the paperwork. And my sister's dating a guy who works for the cable company, so he can take care of that no problem. My mom's bills are down to about a hundred bucks a month now. Yeah, hit me up.
