What is Smart Meter Texas?

Smart Meter Texas is the free, state-backed portal that holds the readings from your electric smart meter. The PUC of Texas and the local utilities set it up to store usage data from every meter location in the state. Your meter logs 96 fifteen-minute readings a day and sends them to your utility and SMT every night at midnight. It’s the best source for picking a plan, because you can see exactly when you use power, not just monthly totals.

Creating an Account

Grab a recent electric bill first. You need two numbers off it: your ESI ID (17 to 22 digits) and your meter number.

1. Go to smartmetertexas.com and click Register / Sign Up.
2. Choose Residential.
3. Enter your personal info, ESI ID, and meter number, then pick a username and accept the terms. It’ll also ask for your electricity provider’s name.
4. Check your email. You log back in with the temporary password they send and set a new one.

If it says the meter’s already registered, someone at that address (maybe a previous occupant, maybe you years ago) has it. Call SMT support at 1-877-276-2783 to sort it out.
