If you're switching from another provider, your service with Lone Star Energy will begin within 1-3 business days after you sign up. Please keep in mind that you may need to satisfy certain requirements, such as paying a deposit, providing valid ID, unfreezing your credit at the credit bureau, and delays in satisfying these requirements can delay your start date.

You will also need your Social Security Number to perform a credit check. Deposit may be required.

Your ESI ID (electric service identifier) is a unique 17- or 22-digit number given to an electricity delivery point in the ERCOT market.  You can find it on your monthly electric bill and in your online account.

To find your ESI ID online:

Log in to My Account.

Go to your My Account dashboard and see your ESI ID under the Account Details box.

Your ESI ID is referenced as Utility Account/ESIID

A deposit may be required depending on your payment history and your credit score. If so, you'll need to satisfy the deposit requirement before your service can begin. Your deposit amount will be calculated at the time of your enrollment request.

You can pay your deposit online by credit card or call our care team at 888-853-2882 to make payment directly with an agent.    

There are certain instances when a deposit can we waived.  If you are over the age of 65 and not delinquent in payment of any electric service account or if you have been determined to be a victim of family violence and can submit certification letter developed by the Texas Council on Family Violence as evidence.  For more information, feel free to call a care team member at 888-853-2882.

If your account is in good standing with no late payments in the last twelve months, your deposit will be returned via bill credit twelve months following your start date. If you terminate service, the deposit on file will be automatically applied towards the account  balance. If there is a remaining credit after payment application, the amount will be refunded via your original payment method.

Your bill will vary depending on how much electricity you use, the plan you are on, the weather, the energy efficiency of your home and many other factors.

We can help make your move easy. Use My Account to tell us where you're going and when you need power switched and we'll take care of the rest. You can always send an e-mail or call our helpful Customer Care team if you prefer.

Yes. The transfer process will create a new service account, resulting in a new account number. Once complete, your new account will require you to register your new address information for your online account.

If your deposit is active and it is within 12 months of service, the deposit will transfer to your new address.

There is typically not a specific cost to switch service providers, but you should consider other impacts. If you are requesting a specific switch date (as opposed to your bill cycle), sometimes this is an additional cost. If you switch providers while still under contract, you could have an early termination penalty from your previous provider, so these are things to consider as you make your electric provider decisions.

You will still need to submit a transfer request so that we can establish service in your name. Otherwise, the electricity can be turned off at any time based on the previous customer's move-out request, and you will be without power.

Your bill will vary depending on how much electricity you use, the plan you are on, the weather, the energy efficiency of your home and many other factors.

In short, deregulation allows you to choose where you purchase your electricity. That means you can now shop for your energy plan the same way you do for phone and internet service.  Energy deregulation separates the production energy from its delivery.  Utilities have typically been responsible for both supplying and delivering energy.  Deregulation breaks up this monopoly, allowing you to purchase energy from retail electric providers.

Electricity Facts Label (‘EFL’) is a standard disclosure required by the Public Utility Commission of Texas (‘PUCT’) for every electricity plan offered by Retail Electric Providers (“REP”) in the state.

Here at Lone Star Energy, we believe that finding the right electricity plan shouldn’t be complicated. That’s why we offer straightforward power plans for homes and businesses.
