DMN Watchdog Claims: Spanish-Speaking Customers In Texas "Likely" Overpaying For Electricity

November 19,2018



The Dallas Morning News Watchdog columnist Dave Lieber noted that, as first reported by RetailEnergyX.com, from September 1, 2016 through August 31, 2018 PowerToChoose.org unique visitors were 1.36 million, and PoderDeEscoger.org unique visitors were 5,700.

Lieber asks, "Does this mean Spanish-speaking customers are paying more for electricity because they are shopping in other ways? Since they're not visiting the state's neutral shopping website, they see fewer choices. It's likely that they are overpaying."

What Lieber does not note is that even taking into account the larger visitor total for the English Power to Choose site, over a two-year period, only about 21% of Texas residential customers visited the Power to Choose sites (6.3 million residential ESI IDs).

Lieber, in reciting his various proposed reforms, again says that, "The full price must always be listed."
