Most energy providers are resellers that buy power at the wholesale electricity rate, then add in their overhead and profits. Instead, Base operates a network of batteries in Texas, charging home batteries when power is cheap, and sending that power to the grid when it&#8217;s needed. That gives them a huge amount of flexibility in their pricing. And it&#8217;s why their price will meet or beat similar fixed rate energy plans on the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"key-facts\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Facts:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Company Address<\/strong>: 205 E Riverside Dr, Austin, TX 78704<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Year Founded<\/strong>: 2023<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Renewable Energy Commitment<\/strong>: 100% renewable energy<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Plan Types Offered<\/strong>: Fixed rate, 100% renewable<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Customer Service:<\/strong> 9am &#8211; 6pm Monday &#8211; Friday at 512-518-1009.

While they&#8217;re known for their home battery back-up systems, you can still get Base&#8217;s great rates as an energy-only offering. That gives you access to market-leading low electricity prices.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1778032111663\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can I get same day service with Base?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes, you can get same day service with Base Monday &#8211; Saturday when you enroll by 2pm.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1778032269508\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Does Base require a credit check? <\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Base runs a soft credit check when you enroll, and may require a deposit if you don&#8217;t meet their minimum credit threshold. <\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1778032354581\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Does Base offer prepaid electricity?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Base does not offer prepaid electricity.

If you change your mind, you can switch away with no early termination penalty in the first 30 days. Just contact them before switching away (yes, they&#8217;ll try to talk you out of it, but it&#8217;s the price you have to pay to save on any termination fee.)<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1780421587183\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Does Base reimburse early termination fees if I switch from another provider?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Base will reimburse up to $150 in early termination fees if you switch to them from another provider mid-contract. Just submit a copy of your final bill from your old provider, showing that you were charged an early termination fee. Base will reimburse you with a bill credit on your next bill.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1778032490195\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What&#8217;s the difference between Base home backup vs. energy only?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Base has two product offerings: Home Backup vs. Energy only. With a Base Power home battery system they&#8217;ll install a battery backup system at your home, and serve as your electricity supplier. With Base Energy, you get access to their low energy prices without the battery. It&#8217;s a great option if you rent, live in an apartment or just aren&#8217;t ready to commit to battery backup for your home. The Base home battery system is a separate agreement; if you decide to add that later, Base will review photos of your breaker panel, electrical connections and location of your meter to determine eligibility.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Base is known for their home battery back-up systems.
