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!

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.
