CenterPoint keeps the lines running

Switching changes only your bill

Houston homes are seeing some of the widest savings gaps in the state.
Reliant Energy is CenterPoint territory's largest legacy provider, and its standard rates are widely reported to run above competitive plans — often 15–20% higher, which can add up to $200–300 a year on an average home. If you're on a Reliant Energy plan you signed up for years ago, or one you were defaulted into, there's a good chance you're paying that premium right now.
