Gexa Energy is a Texas retail electric provider owned by NextEra Energy. NextEra acquired Gexa in June 2005. Gexa holds PUCT certificate #10027. This is not a Gexa landing page and Gexa is not an NRG brand. WattKarma compares Gexa offers when they are in your ZIP results next to other licensed REPs. We do not type sample Gexa cents here — they go stale the day they are typed.
Gexa Energy is a NextEra Energy retail brand. The acquisition closed in June 2005. The PUCT retail electric provider certificate is #10027. That number is Gexa's REP certificate, not WattKarma's broker license (PUCT #BR220202).
NRG's Texas retail brands are Reliant, Direct Energy, Green Mountain Energy, Cirro, and NRG. Gexa is not on that list. If a page, an ad, or an old comparison chart files Gexa under NRG, that is false. We reviewed this ownership line on September 10, 2026.
The NextEra sibling we also compare on this site is Frontier Utilities. We do not invent other NextEra retail names to pad a family. Reliant is an NRG brand — see Reliant and NRG if you are shopping that parent, not this one.
Parent company does not decide the ¢/kWh. A NextEra plan and an NRG plan can appear in the same ZIP with different terms and different averages at 500, 1,000, and 2,000 kWh. Shop the Electricity Facts Label.
In Texas, a Gexa Energy plan must publish an Electricity Facts Label. The EFL shows an average price at 500 kWh, 1,000 kWh, and 2,000 kWh. The 1,000 kWh column is the number most ads lean on. It is not always the number you will pay in a mild month or a cooling-season month.
At 500 kWh, base charges and minimum-usage fees can dominate — apartments and low-AC months live here. At 1,000 kWh, a usage credit can make a plan look cheaper than it is when you miss the credit band. At 2,000 kWh, Texas summer, those credits can dilute. Read all three columns, the term length, and the early termination fee before you enroll.
Ohio does not issue a Texas EFL. If you are shopping Ohio, the honest benchmark is the Price to Compare on the utility bill — not a Gexa Energy ¢/kWh typed on this page. Maryland allows supply choice, but online shopping on this site is not fully wired. We do not invent a Gexa Energy enrollment there.
We will not publish a sample Gexa Energy rate here. Live ¢/kWh require your ZIP. Method last reviewed September 10, 2026.
This is not a Gexa Energy landing page and not a cloned sales site. WattKarma is a licensed energy broker: Texas PUCT #BR220202, Ohio PUCO #22-104905E, and Maryland MD PSC #IR-5469. We compare the retail electric providers that actually appear in your ZIP catalog.
If you enroll through us, the provider pays us a commission. You are not charged a broker fee to compare. That commission does not change the published EFL price or the contract you sign. Our incentive is to show real options — not to push Gexa Energy or to hide Gexa Energy.
Gexa Energy may be in your results. Gexa Energy may be missing. If it is missing, we show who is there instead of inventing a Gexa Energy card or a sample ¢/kWh. That is the honest shop. Enter a ZIP or call 855-952-WATT (9288).
A comparison page is not a promise that we always have Gexa Energy, that Gexa Energy is cheapest, or that the parent company means a better or worse rate. Ownership is a fact. Price is a ZIP result. Delivery and outages stay with the TDU — Oncor, CenterPoint, AEP Texas, TNMP, or LP&L in Texas — not with Gexa Energy and not with WattKarma.
When a Gexa plan appears, check term length, the early termination fee, and whether a bill credit applies only inside a stated kWh band. Check deposit or alternative-credit documents on the plan packet — not on a slogan.
Gexa is not the prepaid specialist on this hub. Prepaid comparison lives on the PayLess Power page when prepaid is in your ZIP. Renewable claims still have to survive the same three EFL columns.
If you already have Gexa and you are checking a renewal, compare the renewal EFL to other REPs in the same ZIP. Switching does not change who restores an outage. That is the TDU, not Gexa and not WattKarma.
We only link sister brands that share the same parent company. We do not invent a family.
