How to Start Your Same-Day Electric Service

You can get same-day electricity service in Texas, depending on your location. It may be easier than you think, and it could be one less thing to worry about when moving to a new home or when you just need power set up quickly.

In a few easy steps, you could have same-day electricity set up.  It’s best to do the following early in the day:

  1. Check availability. See if your address qualifies for same-day electricity in Texas. Check the Texas Electric Guide for details.
  2. Choose your provider and plan. Texas is a deregulated state, so you can choose your provider and plan. Explore your Texas energy plan options for the best fit.
  3. Provide the required information. To set up an account, you’ll need to provide a service address, a start date, and validate your identity with a driver’s license and/or Social Security number.*
  4. Clear the soft credit check. Having good credit may help you avoid paying a deposit.
  5. Submit your service request. If you submit your request by the daily deadline, usually 5:00 p.m. CST, you can receive same-day electricity service.**
  6. Get confirmation. You’ll get a text or email confirming your enrollment and when your service will start.

* When enrolling, you will be required to provide either a driver’s license or Social Security number, which will be used to check if a deposit is needed and to verify your identity. For faster verification, we recommend providing your Social Security number.

** Requests processed after 5:00 p.m. CST are connected on the next business day. Same-day service, or a priority move-in, is offered Monday through Friday, weather permitting, where an existing meter is in place. There are no connections on holidays or weekends. Enrollment and permit requirements must be met before a request can be processed. Your local utility company may charge a fee for a priority same-day setup, which may vary based on your utility company and location. We recommend contacting your utility company to see if there is a priority move-in or same-day service fee.
