Your ESID Number (pronounced "Easy I.D."), is your Electric Service Identifier. It is a unique number to your property address. It helps the utility companies easily enroll customers, switch energy providers, and meter your usage. It is sometimes referred to as an ESIID, ESI ID or ESI-ID.
It essentially acts as a social security number for your electric meter.
While it's not actually visible on your meter you can our free ESID lookup at the top of the page to find yours.
Both commercial and residential meters have an ESID. When you use our tool you can see what utility company services your location as well as other important information.
Your ESID number is helpful when you are shopping for electricity plans in Texas. Your energy provider will use this number to set up the electricity service to your meter.
The ESID for your meter will tell you which utility company (ex: Oncor or Centerpoint) is responsible for the delivery of electric service to your property.
Since rates are dependent on your location, the ESID number allows you to get accurate pricing information for your home or commercial location.
If you are unable to find your ESID number using the tool at the top of this page it's most likely that your service location or meter is new and hasn't been set up yet. Contact us so that we can help you get your meter set up and your power on.
