It’s solar made simple

Your plan stays the same

When you Make It Solar, nothing changes about your electricity plan or the way power gets to your home. No rooftop panels or devices are needed. The electricity you use supports the development of sustainable solar energy projects in Texas and across the nation.

We help you do your part

Through the Make It Solar program, Reliant will match 25%, 50% or 100% of your electricity use with solar renewable energy certificates (RECs).1 These RECs signify the renewable energy generated and sent to the electric grid to offset your energy usage. Choose to Make it Solar with any of the three percentage options and do your part in a way that fits your lifestyle and budget. 

Day or night, rain or shine, it’s always sunny

Since you’re still receiving power as you always have, the weather or time of day makes no difference. You’re still supporting solar 24/7, cloudy or clear. And with Make It Solar, the forecast calls for a cleaner, brighter future.

Zero long-term commitment

These days, we understand that things are always changing. So, if for any reason, you’d like to end your participation in the Make It Solar program, you can leave at any time without penalty.2

Your impact is easy to see

When you Make It Solar, it’s simple to keep tabs on the important difference you’re making. Log in to your online Reliant account and see how you help reduce carbon emissions — per week, per month and since you joined the program.
