Ohmconnect Energy Review and Ratings

Last updated:

Ohmconnect Energy currently holds a Clear Energy Facts Score of 3.8 out of 5. This places them at rank #12 out of 43. Three factors were evaluated: plan quality, pricing transparency, and customer service.

 OhmConnect Energy is a technology-driven electricity provider operating in Texas that focuses on demand-response programs and energy conservation incentives. The company emphasizes usage-based rewards, digital tools, and customer participation in grid-reduction events as part of its approach to managing electricity consumption.
It’s also important to note that the company is based in California, so many online reviews may relate to other states and not necessarily reflect the Texas electricity offering.

Ohmconnect Energy: What we like

  1. BBB accreditation: OhmConnect Energy is a BBB Accredited Business and currently holds an A+ rating, which is a strong plus because it gives customers a structured channel to file complaints and increases the likelihood of getting issues reviewed and resolved.
  2. Consistent pricing across platforms: Their rates are generally consistent across different shopping platforms, making it easier for customers to find their best available plans regardless of where they compare.

Ohmconnect Energy: What we don’t like

  1. Payment processing fees: A credit or debit card processing fee may apply. Customers can typically avoid this fee by paying via ACH or by phone, depending on available payment options.
  2. Complex Free Hours EFLs: Some Electricity Facts Labels (EFLs), especially for Free Hours plans, are more difficult to read than those of other providers. These plans are not truly “free” electricity plans; instead, they apply discounted rates during off-peak hours. Multiple variations with different time windows and rate structures can make it harder for customers to identify the best deal.
  3. Limited and negative recent feedback: Over the past year, the volume of recent customer reviews has been limited and much of that feedback has skewed negative, and since they do not currently list plans on Power to Choose, they may not appear on the PUCT complaint scorecard that helps compare informal complaint ratios across providers.

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.

Ohmconnect Energy Non Recurring Fees Analysis

This is a comparison of the non-recurring fees for Ohmconnect Energy. These charges are detailed within the Terms of Service (TOS) and contain critical information regarding penalties for missed payments or other circumstances. Understanding these fees is essential, as some providers enforce harsh penalties while others are more considerate.

This information is updated at the beginning of every quarter. We pull these figures from Oncor TDU plans via Power to Choose or directly from the provider's website. However, a provider's TOS is generally identical across all plans and TDU zones.

Fee Ohmconnect Energy Market (Median)
Late Payment Charge 5% 5%
Insufficient Funds / Returned Payment Fee $25 $30
Disconnection Notice Fee $0 $19.95
Disconnection + Reconnection Fee $50 $50

Understanding the Charges

  • Late Payment Charge: A penalty applied when a monthly bill is not paid in full by the due date.
  • Insufficient Funds / Returned Payment Fee: A fee charged if your payment method is declined or a check bounces due to non-sufficient funds.
  • Disconnection Notice Fee: A charge for sending a formal warning letter of intent to disconnect service due to non-payment. This is distinct from the actual disconnection fee.
  • Disconnection + Reconnection Fee: We bundle these two fees together for clarity. Because some providers charge a high disconnection fee but no reconnection fee (or vice versa), viewing them as a combined total provides a clearer picture of the true cost to restore power.

Note: Please use these values strictly as a reference. Providers often use wording such as "up to" in their terms, meaning actual amounts can vary at the company's discretion.

TDU Charges: The fees listed above are exclusive to the retail energy provider. On top of these, you may incur charges by the TDU (e.g., Oncor, CenterPoint) for physical disconnections or reconnections. TDU charges are pass-through costs and remain exactly the same regardless of which energy provider you use.

Ohmconnect Energy Plans & Current Rates (Mar 2026)

OhmConnect Energy plans focus on two main types: True Fixed plans with consistent rates, and Free Hours plans. The Free Hours plans are not truly “free” electricity plans; instead, they function as discounted off-peak rate plans. OhmConnect offers several Free Hours options with different time windows and rate structures, which can make comparing plans more complex.

Note: CEF selects plans based on value to the customer. For this review, we aim to avoid redundancy and shorter-term plans. we also generally exclude complex seasonal plans that usually offer poor value, high-rate fixed plans, and high-rate bill credit plans. For a complete list of available plans and terms, always check the provider's website. We display the latest update date for each plan, showing when the EFL and its information were collected. CEF verifies rates twice per week. Always check the provider’s website for the most current EFL and rates.

Ohmconnect Energy obtains the highest score in transparency because their rates and plans are consistent across all platforms, including their website, sponsored content on Google, and the Power to Choose marketplace.

Customer Service Review in Detail

/5.0

PUCT complaint record

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.
