How Base delivers below market rates:

  1. A hot Texas afternoon

    Most energy providers are overcharging you.

    Most energy providers are resellers that buy electricity at market rate and pad their margin. When demand spikes on a hot Texas afternoon, they pass that cost to you in the form of a higher rate.
  2. A family cooking dinner at home

    Base gets paid by the grid. You get a lower bill.

    When demand surges, our battery fleet gets paid to support the grid. This means lower prices for everyone on a Base plan.

A lower rate for you. A better grid for everyone.

No teaser pricing, no confusing tiers. Just reliable Texas power at a price that holds up.

Common questions and straight answers.

Base Energy is priced as an all-in rate per kWh. Your exact price depends on your utility area (Oncor, CenterPoint, etc.) because delivery charges vary by utility. On the plan card, you’ll see the all-in rate shown at a standard usage level, plus the underlying Base energy charge and delivery charges that make it up. See our exact EFL here.
No. Base Energy is an electricity plan you can enroll in without any hardware. The Base battery is a separate offering. Base Energy is currently a limited, select offering in certain Texas areas, and we’ll show you availability after you enter your address.
Most energy providers in Texas win on complexity: teaser rates, bill credits that only “work” at one usage level, and plan menus that are hard to compare. Base Energy is built around one straightforward plan with clear terms and simple billing, so you can switch once and stop thinking about it.
That’s common. You can still switch to Base Energy. If your current provider charges an early termination fee, that fee is your responsibility, so it’s worth checking your current contract before you switch. Many Texas plans are month-to-month or close to their end date.
Yes! Renters, apartments, and practically any Texan in a deregulated area can sign up for Base Energy. One thing many renters don't realize: if you're moving, you can cancel without the early termination fee.
