Cleansky Energy Review and Ratings

Last updated:

Cleansky Energy currently holds a Clear Energy Facts Score of 4.3 out of 5. This places them at rank #2 out of 42. Three factors were evaluated: plan quality, pricing transparency, and customer service.

CleanSky Energy is a PUCT-certified, Texas-based electricity provider that offers a range of plans, including fixed-rate, bill credit, Free Nights, and Free Weekends options. All of their plans are 100% renewable energy plans.

Cleansky Energy: What we like

  1. 100% renewable energy: All plans are sourced from clean energy such as wind turbines, solar panels, and hydroelectric generation.
  2. Wide plan selection: They offer a diverse portfolio of plans, including Fixed-Rate, Free Nights, and Free Weekends options. The contract terms and charges in the Electricity Facts Label (EFL) are easy to understand, with no hidden fees.
  3. Strong customer reputation: They maintain a high rating on Google compared to many other providers and have a solid standing with the PUCT, indicating fewer customer complaints than most competitors.
  4. Referral program: They offer a referral program where both you and your friend receive a $50 Gift Card upon signing up. Learn more here.

Cleansky Energy: What we don’t like

  1. Mandatory AutoPay requirement: The majority of their plans require AutoPay enrollment, and this is not optional. If AutoPay is disabled or a payment fails, customers may face monthly penalty fees and potential service disconnection. Check the Terms of Service for full details.

How We Rate This Company

  • PUCT Rating: This is the official scorecard published by the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT).
  • Plan & Rates: We evaluate each company’s electricity rates by giving more weight to clear True Fixed plans and less weight to other fixed-type plans, using average prices across different contract lengths. Companies with lower average rates score higher, and we exclude complex or gimmicky offers that require special equipment (like smart thermostats, EV devices, seasonal pricing, or “highest usage day” rewards).
  • Cancellation Fees: We compare each plan’s early termination fee against similar plans from other providers and normalize the data. Lower cancellation fees per contract term result in better scores.
  • Transparency: We check how consistently the provider displays prices across the main shopping channels Texans use: Power to Choose, the company’s own website, and Google Ads. If the prices match across these places, the transparency score goes up. If the company advertises one price but charges something different on its site, the score goes down.
  • CEF Score: The overall Clear Energy Facts score is a weighted average of these sub-scores, giving you a single number you can use to compare providers side by side.

Data note: Except for the PUCT Rating (which comes directly from the official PUCT scorecard), all CEF scores are calculated using real, up-to-date plan data from each provider. We recalculate these scores regularly using current Electricity Facts Labels and plan details — we don’t guess or use hidden assumptions.

Clear Energy Facts ratings focus on plan structure, transparency, and pricing. They do not include direct customer service scores. For that, we recommend checking recent Google Reviews and other independent sources, and being cautious with “star ratings” shown on sponsored comparison sites.

Transparency Review in Detail

5.0 /5.0

Transparency

Ranked #1 of 42 companies

CleanSky Energy’s transparency score has decreased from 5 out of 5 to 3 out of 5. While the company continues to offer fixed-rate plans on multiple platforms, the most competitive fixed-rate offers are typically available on the Power to Choose marketplace rather than on CleanSky’s own website. Recent comparisons show that price differences between platforms often exceed 5%, making it more difficult for customers to quickly identify the best available deals without checking multiple sources.

Customer Service Review in Detail

5.0 /5.0

PUCT complaint record

Ranked #1 of 42 companies

In this section we focus on the company’s customer service, using the official complaint data from the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT).

1. PUCT scorecard rating. This score shows how this provider compares to other Texas electricity companies based on the number of customer complaints the PUCT receives about them.

2. What the PUCT scorecard means. The PUCT publishes a scorecard that rates Retail Electric Providers based on their complaint history. It compares a company's market share to its share of complaints filed with the state. Companies that resolve issues before customers feel the need to contact the PUCT receive higher ratings (5 Power Circles), while companies that frequently force customers to escalate issues receive lower ratings.

If a company does not have a PUCT rating (or we show “No rating”), it usually means there is not enough historical data for the PUCT to calculate a score. This typically happens when a company is new to the market or has a customer base too small to be statistically compared to larger providers.
