Evolve Energy is no longer operating as a Retail Electric Provider (REP) in Texas.
Evolve Energy was a privately owned electricity provider based in Houston, Texas.
Founded in 2019, the company served residential customers in deregulated areas across the state. During its time in the Texas market, Evolve Energy focused on wholesale electricity pricing, prepaid service, and renewable energy plans.
Although the company is no longer active in Texas, it was known for offering an alternative to traditional retail electricity plans through a prepaid, market-based pricing model.
Evolve Energy took a different approach than many Texas electricity providers.
Rather than offering traditional fixed-rate plans, the company built its service around wholesale electricity pricing and prepaid account management. Customers paid market-based electricity rates and could track their usage and account balances through the company’s mobile app.
