About OhmConnect

OhmConnect is an electricity supplier servicing California. It was founded in 2013 to promote energy conservation efforts in critical markets. The company expanded to the Texas deregulated market in 2022, but its Texas customer base was recently acquired by Direct Energy.

OhmConnect stands out from other energy suppliers with its unique energy-saving rewards program. Subscribers are encouraged to integrate smart technology and reduce their energy consumption during peak hours to earn rewards and win prizes.

How do I get OhmConnect rewards?

Rewards: OhmConnect rewards are known as Watts. You will receive an email or text message from OhmConnect informing you about an upcoming period of high energy demand, called OhmHours. You can earn credits from OhmConnect toward your future bill when you cut your energy use for at least one hour during peak demand times. In addition, OhmConnect offers various rewards such as cash payouts, chances to win prizes, and access to smart home technology.

Referral program: You can receive a referral bonus of $25 or $50 if you refer others to OhmConnect and have them sign up for a plan or service. The bonus amount will depend on the number of referrals you generate. Even if you don’t live in OhmConnect’s service area, you can still participate in the referral program by helping Texas, California, and New York residents sign up for OhmConnect.

Energy savings app: Customers who use OhmConnect’s energy savings app can connect their smart devices (like smart plugs and thermostats) and receive alerts during peak energy demand hours. This helps customers know when to cut their energy consumption and save money. OhmConnect will automatically power down these devices to help customers save energy and earn credits.
