About CPL

For more than 75 years, CPL Retail Energy and its predecessors have provided electricity to households and businesses in South Texas, including Harlingen, McAllen, Victoria and Corpus Christi. Today, we seek to be your electricity partner, offering stable, long-term, customer-focused service. In addition, CPL remains committed to supporting the communities where our customers live and work.

CPL is part of the Direct Energy family of companies, which serve over 5 million customers throughout the US and Canada, and is the third largest competitive electricity provider in Texas. Across Texas, we directly and indirectly employ 1,500 of your friends and neighbors. Our family of companies owns three power plants in Texas: the Frontera Energy Center in Mission, the Bastrop Energy Center near Austin and the Paris Energy Center in Paris. Additionally, we have agreements to buy the electricity from five wind energy power plants in Texas – three in Taylor County, one in San Angelo County and one in Abilene County.

Being part of the Direct Energy family of companies allows us to bring you the full resources and benefits of a strong global business, while remaining focused on customer service and staying true to our local roots. We look forward to serving you for the coming years.
