Sign Up
Enroll online or by phone. You’ll need your service address, preferred start date, and a government ID. Your new provider files a switch request with ERCOT and CenterPoint, and service transfers on your next meter-read date — typically 1–3 business days. No one visits your home and the lights stay on the entire time.
Moving to Humble?
Schedule your electricity at least 5 business days before your move-in date to ensure power is on when you arrive — especially important during the hot summer months. Many providers offer same-day or next-day activation for an additional fee if you’re in a time crunch.
