Cut your costs, not your power
Affordable electricity and outage protection in one plan, with installation, maintenance, and support included.
Backup that won’t break the bank
You get automatic backup without buying a battery. Base owns, installs, and maintains the system and earns revenue from the grid.
Fixed rate. No gimmicks.
One simple price, no time-of-use traps or seasonal spikes. Most Texans save up to 15% on power, and you renew at a guaranteed below-market-average rate after 3 years.
We buy you out.
Up to $250 to cover cancellation fees from your current provider. If you move, you can transfer service to the new homeowner or cancel for less than the upfront cost.
Skip the standby generator.
Silent, instant switchover in under a second (no gas, no fumes, no pull-start). Backup is always ready.

Base earns from the grid, not you. During demand spikes, your battery sends power out—lowering rates and keeping energy balanced.

Base members get the full benefit of whole home backup protection from the Base battery.

Amazing!!! Great installation experience. Switch over testing was great. I can't wait until we have a power failure.😜🤣

Love this concept! And it’s working! My electric bill last month was $17.70 and I expect the same this month. The money I am saving can be used to pay off my solar panels. A win all around.

While I thought it was too good to be true, Base’s solution is exactly what I’ve been looking for - backup power for an affordable upfront cost. Also excited to support a Texas-based team determined to fix our grid’s problems.

Choosing Base is one of the best decisions I have made! After years of random and major power outages, I was constantly worried about when the next one would occur. I bought a small generator but when I learned about the Base program and the low entry cost it took the chance and signed up. The team at Base could not have been better. The install was professional and all my questions answered. Since I signed up there has been two electrical outages and I hardly noticed.
Base is peace of mind and well worth it!

I love Base. Installation was extremely professional, and I've had no problems at all since I've had it - over a year now.

Had an issue with our Base equipment during an outage. Base responded on a weekend quickly. They followed up like they said they would. Even though our power came back on so the repair wasn't an emergency, they still sent a tech out on the weekend. He was very nice and professional, answered my questions and stayed until he verified it was working like it should. This was the first issue I've had with the equipment and was impressed how they handled it.

I have really enjoyed having Base Power for several reasons:
First, our bill is constant, and very reasonable. No more outrageous summer time bills. Just a steady amount every month.
Second, we love knowing we will have power even if the grad goes down, AND our solar panels will still generate power.
Third, we just renewed our contract, and they offered us the same monthly rate as we had the first year. Every other power company jacks up the rate after the first year, or changes something so the initial offer that got you in no longer applies.
Base Power is a good company and I plan to be with them for a LONG, LONG Time!

feel much better knowing I have power during outage -- great service -- customer focused -- highly recommend.
