Here's what you can do with 12 hours of free power:
Every night between 9 p.m. and 9 a.m., any electricity you use is free! You only pay for the electricity you use between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m., and you can use as much electricity as you want all night long. If you run your dishwasher or do laundry at night, have parties or binge watch your favorite shows, this plan is for you!
You can sign up by entering your ZIP code above. If you're moving to a new address, just use the address of your new home to fill out your service address information. If you're switching from another electricity provider, we'll let them know about your switch.
When you sign up for an electricity plan, you'll be able to choose the day you start service. You will usually be able to start service within 7 business days.
The electricity rate includes your energy price per kilowatt-hour (kWh). The rate also includes charges that help deliver energy to your home, such as the base charge and delivery charges from your Transmission and Distribution Utility. Some of these charges are fixed and others depend on your usage. You can find your energy price per kWh and other charges in your EFL.
We have a wide variety of energy plans for your home to choose from.
1 Free nights last from 9:00 PM to 9:00 AM. Provisioned smart meter required. Certain eligibility requirements, fees, taxes, terms and conditions apply. A base charge of $9.95 is included in the average price for this plan, as well as other recurring charges, excluding state and local sales taxes and Miscellaneous Gross Receipts Tax Reimbursement. Please see the Electricity Facts Label for more information and other applicable fees for this plan.
2 The price can change only in response to changes in TDSP charges, ERCOT or Texas RE administrative fees charged to loads, or laws or regulatory actions that impose new or modified fees that are beyond Direct Energy’s control.
