Brighten Energy is dedicated to selling clean energy plans at an affordable price. Below are the key things to know about the company, including plan types, green credentials, fees, and how to shop their offerings.

Types of rates offered by Brighten Energy

Brighten Energy primarily offers fixed-rate energy plans with contract lengths ranging from eight to 24 months. Fixed-rate plans lock your price per kWh for the length of the contract, which many customers prefer for predictable monthly bills and protection from market volatility.

Green energy with Brighten Energy

Brighten Energy helps customers lower their carbon footprint with 100% renewable energy plans. The company purchases Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) on customers’ behalf to match electricity usage and support local wind energy and solar power production.

Moving or switching service with Brighten Energy

Choose Energy makes switching providers simple. If you’re moving, you may be able to keep your Brighten Energy plan if the company serves your new location. If not, you’ll need to choose a new provider — and you typically won’t owe a cancellation fee if the move is the reason for ending your contract.

You can shop plans on the marketplace up to 90 days before your move by entering your ZIP code.

Cancellation fees

Brighten Energy is currently waiving cancellation fees for new customers. Normally an early termination fee (ETF) applies if you cancel before your contract ends, except in certain circumstances such as moving outside the provider’s service area.

Brighten Energy business electricity

Brighten Energy also offers commercial electricity plans. Businesses in Brighten’s service areas can access affordable green plans tailored to commercial needs.

Brighten Energy’s renewable plans come in a few term lengths. A couple of the provider’s top options on our marketplace include:

Brighten Green Secure 12

A 12-month fixed-rate plan that delivers 100% green energy. New customers can enjoy no sign-up or cancellation fees.

Brighten Green Secure 20

A 20-month fixed-rate plan that balances longer price security with affordability. New customers may skip sign-up and/or cancellation fees.

Brighten Energy electric rates by location

Electricity rates differ across deregulated areas because utilities charge varying transmission and delivery fees. Brighten Energy operates in Ohio, Illinois, and Pennsylvania, so prices will vary depending on the local utility and location. For accurate pricing, search by ZIP code on the Choose Energy marketplace.

How can I lower my Brighten Energy utility bill?

Reduce kilowatt-hour usage: lower HVAC setpoints, turn off lights when not in use, unplug electronics, use timers for outdoor lights, and switch to LED bulbs. You can also compare plans on the marketplace to find a lower rate or consider installing solar to cut long-term costs (tips).

How will I receive my Brighten Energy bill?

Your monthly bill will continue to come from your utility company; Brighten Energy will be listed as the electricity supplier on the bill.

What is the best Brighten Energy electricity plan?

The best plan depends on your needs. Consider contract length and price — shorter terms offer flexibility; longer terms offer price stability. Compare the Brighten plans available in your ZIP code to find the right fit.

What happens to my Brighten Energy plan if I move before my contract ends?

If Brighten Energy offers service in your new area, you may be able to transfer your plan. If the company doesn’t serve your new location, you’ll need to choose a new plan — and Brighten will typically waive cancellation fees in that case.
