Centerpoint Energy Plans Pricing

CenterPoint Energy publishes no API plans, no developer pricing page and no self-service sign-up for any machine-readable surface. Its integration surfaces are regulated or consortium-operated rather than commercially tiered: access to CenterPoint meter data through the Smart Meter Texas Data Access interface is granted by registration and an executed Energy Data Sharing Agreement at no published per-call charge, and the Competitive Retailers Information Portal is entitlement-based for retail electric providers already operating in the ERCOT market. What CenterPoint does publish as pricing is utility tariff — rate schedules filed with the Public Utility Commission of Texas for delivering energy, which price kilowatt hours, not API calls.

Centerpoint Energy Plans Pricing is the machine-readable pricing-plan profile for CenterPoint Energy on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Plans specification.

It defines 2 plans, covering free and entitlement tiers, with named plans including Smart Meter Texas Data Access (registered third party), Competitive Retailers Information Portal.

Tagged areas include Energy, Utility, Smart Meter, Green Button, and Usage Data.

Smart Meter Texas Data Access (registered third party) free

Registered entity access to CenterPoint Energy interval, register, billing, Green Button, meter and premise data for ESI IDs covered by an executed Energy Data Sharing Agreement. Onboarding is a registration and credentialing process — an SMT entity account, a signed API SSL certificate per entity and an ID/password pair per DUNS — not a purchase. No per-call price, metered charge or subscription fee is published for the interface.

Competitive Retailers Information Portal entitlement

24/7 portal access for retail electric providers operating on CenterPoint's Houston-area transmission and distribution network, covering market guides, metering data, usage history, TxSET transaction standards and forms. Access is requested rather than bought; no price is published because the relationship is governed by the retail delivery tariff rather than a product price list.
