Best Free Weekends Plans in Texas

This is a list of the top 10 Free Weekends plans for every area in Texas, broken down by TDU service zone and filtered by contract length. These plans are ordered by the advertised 1000 kWh rate, but you should not rely on that number alone. Clear Energy Facts recommends using this data only as a reference.

Free-weekend plans vary widely—the free window may run Friday evening to Sunday night (or even Monday morning), and daytime/non-free energy rates can differ significantly. Some plans also discount (rather than fully waive) charges during the “free” window. For apples-to-apples comparisons, your historical usage is the best starting point: with ~1 year of data and similar expected habits, you can compare these plans accurately.

Fortunately, Clear Energy Facts provides the tools you need for an accurate comparison. Log in or Sign up, then connect your Smart Meter Texas (SMT) data to your account. Using your historical usage data, we can accurately compare any type of plan, including Free Weekends plans. Prefer a simpler option? Check our Top True Fixed Rate plans.

Frequently asked questions

Can’t find the answer you’re looking for? Contact our team.

Are free weekend plans usually cheaper than true fixed-rate plans?
Usually not. Free weekends are offset by higher weekday energy rates. They can work if most of your usage really happens during the weekend. However, your biggest consumption often comes from HVAC in summer and heating in winter, which typically runs as normal on weekdays.
What days and hours count as “free”?
It depends. Some plans include Friday evening through Sunday night (sometimes into Monday morning), while others only cover Saturday and Sunday. Check the tables above for quick reference. Always confirm the exact window in the EFL/ToS; some products change hours by season or Daylight Saving Time.
Do TDU delivery charges apply during the free window?
Sometimes. Many plans waive energy charges only, while TDU delivery fees still apply. Check the EFL for phrases like “TDU Delivery fees included” and verify how delivery charges are treated.
Why do free weekend plans often cost more overall?
Weekday rates are usually higher than average. Even if you shift some appliance usage (dryer, washer, dishwasher) to the weekend, HVAC and heating often remain significant during weekdays, and those loads can dominate your bill.
How can I make a weekend free plan work for me?
Run high-usage appliances during the weekend. On weekdays, keep the thermostat at a higher setting in summer (and moderate in winter), and use fans to help with comfort. If you travel during the week and are mostly home on weekends, these plans can fit well.
What’s the best way to know if a free weekend plan makes sense for my home?
Use your historical Smart Meter Texas (SMT) data. Clear Energy Facts can estimate future bills by hour—log in, link SMT, and compare weekend-free vs. fixed plans using your actual usage profile.
I can change my habits—should I try a short-term free weekend plan first?
Consider a 3–11 month term to test whether you can truly shift your usage. You can find the cheapest advertised plans and their free-window schedules in the tables above. If it doesn’t fit your lifestyle, switch to a True Fixed plan at renewal.
Can I enroll in a free weekend plan if I have solar panels or batteries?
It depends on the provider. Some allow solar/battery customers on free-weekend products, others don’t. Check the EFL/ToS or call the company to confirm eligibility and how net metering interacts with the free window.
What are typical cancellation fees on free weekend plans?
Fees vary: a fixed dollar amount (e.g., $100–$300) or a monthly fee × remaining months. See the Cancellation fee column in the tables above and verify details in the EFL.
