SaveOnEnergy has 20 years of experience working with various top-tier providers in deregulated markets. Because there are dozens of providers, hundreds of plans, and constantly changing rates, our reviews are not based on first-hand experience. We encourage customers to do their own research, compare multiple plans, and consider their individual priorities when choosing which provider is the best fit for them.

You can browse each plan’s terms by consulting the Electricity Facts Label. Once you find the right Direct Energy plan for your needs, you can sign up online or over the phone in minutes.
