Get help on your electricity bill during the summer for qualified individuals

REDUCE YOUR ELECTRIC BILL
DURING THE SIZZLING SUMMER MONTHS!

As the summer heat sizzles here in Houston and throughout Texas, residents will once again see spikes in their electric bills. It is extremely important that consumers who qualify for the LITE-UP Texas electric discount program to immediately seek enrollment and begin to get your 17% discount on your electric bill during the summer months.

The LITE-UP Texas program is designed to help qualified low-income individuals reduce the monthly cost of electric service by up to 17%. The program provides discounts to eligible customers during the months of May to September of each year. A customer qualifies for the discount if they are currently receiving Medicaid and Food Stamps. If you are not in one of the qualified programs listed above, you can still qualify for the discount if your household income is at or below 125 percent of the federal poverty guidelines. You can sign up for the program through the Public Utilities Commission website at: https://www.liteuptexas.org/NewForm/ or by calling 1-888-782-8477.
