Add a New Electricity Meter in Texas

Let us take the complexity out of energy procurement. From the first consultation to seamless contract execution, our process is tailored to maximize your savings with minimal effort. Adding a new utility meter in Texas usually involves coordinating with your local utility (TDU), city inspectors, and a retail electric provider, and the exact process and requirements can vary by location and utility.

EnergyBrokerTX serves as an advisor between you, your electrician, and the utility, helping you understand requirements, avoid delays, and connect each new meter to a competitive Texas electricity plan that fits how the space will be used.oncor+1​

When You Need a New Meter

1.) New construction projects that have never had power service before and need a first-time meter set.

2.) ​Adding a suite, tenant space, or building where each area needs its own separately metered service for billing and accountability.

3.) Converting an existing property (for example, splitting a single meter into multiple meters for individual units or sub-tenants).

In each of these situations, the local utility is responsible for installing and owning the meter, while you or your contractor are responsible for wiring, panels, and meeting code requirements. EnergyBrokerTX helps you line up the right provider and rate so that, once the utility is ready to set the meter, your account and billing are already in place.

How EnergyBrokerTX Helps with New Meter Setups

Once the utility verifies the site is ready and all inspections are complete, it will install and activate the meter so usage can be recorded and billed under the selected rate plan. EnergyBrokerTX can stay involved through this process to help with any questions about timing, documentation, and rate options.

Coordinate service requests and timing so meter installation aligns with construction milestones and city inspections.
Recommend appropriate commercial or residential plans for each new meter based on expected usage, hours of operation, and load profile.
Assist with documentation and provider enrollment so that when the utility energizes the meter, the account is active and correctly configured.
