What is Smart Meter Texas?

Smart Meter Texas (SMT) is a database that stores daily, monthly, and 15-minute interval energy data recorded by digital electric meters (commonly referred to as “smart meters”).

SMT gives you quick access to your electricity use, electricity meter, and premise information and allows you to share that information with providers or any other authorized party.

AEP Texas Inc., CenterPoint Energy Houston Electric, LLC, Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC, and Texas-New Mexico Power Company jointly own and manage SMT.

SMT is also endorsed by the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT).

SMT is a great tool to help you manage your electricity usage, lower your monthly electric bill, and compare your energy options to find the right plan for your home.
