Katy businesses
Katy has more square footage under roof per business than almost anywhere else we work, because of the I-10 distribution corridor. Warehouse accounts are worth shopping carefully: high consumption, low load factor variability, and a rate structure where the difference between a good and a mediocre contract compounds across hundreds of thousands of kWh a year.
What the local commercial base looks like
The businesses we see most in Katy are distribution and logistics along the I-10 corridor, corporate offices, retail centres and restaurants, contractors and trades, self-storage and light industrial. Major local employers include Academy Sports + Outdoors (corporate), Igloo Products Corp., Amazon fulfillment operations, Memorial Hermann Katy Hospital and Katy ISD — which matters less for who we work with than for what it says about the surrounding economy of suppliers, contractors and services that grows around them.
How Katy load is shaped
Split personality. The warehouse and distribution side runs long operating hours with lighting and dock-door load and a modest demand peak; the retail and restaurant side runs evening-weighted with heavy refrigeration. Two very different shapes that should not be shopped the same way.
Load shape is not a technicality. Suppliers price against the pattern of your consumption, not just its total, so two Katy businesses using identical annual kWh can be quoted quite differently. Presenting that pattern properly is a large part of what we do before any offer is requested.
Katy households
Katy’s housing stock is new, large and almost entirely electric-cooled. New-build homes in Cane Island, Cross Creek Ranch and Elyson often start on whatever plan the builder or the previous owner left behind, which is rarely the right one.
Residential switching in Katy works the same way it does across CenterPoint territory: you choose a retail provider, the switch happens on your next meter read, and CenterPoint Energy continues to deliver the power and restore it after a storm. What changes is who bills you for the energy and at what price.
What is shoppable here, and what is not
Every Katy electricity bill splits into supply charges — the competitive part, set by your retail provider — and delivery charges, which are CenterPoint's regulated, publicly filed rates for carrying power over the wires. Delivery charges are identical for every customer on the same tariff regardless of supplier, so no broker can reduce them. We only ever talk about the part that can actually move.
Working with a local broker
Nisa Hunain answers the phone at 832-573-8546. We work the Houston metro only, which is why we can tell you which addresses in Montgomery County cannot switch at all and which load profiles in Katy are worth taking to market carefully. A statewide operation calling from a list does not know that, and does not need to.
