How does it work?

Setting up 2-Step Verification is becoming commonplace as a way to make it harder for scammers to gain control over your identify and accounts -- and to prove that you're really you.

  • After you enter your My Energy Center login information and click Log In, you’ll be asked to complete a second verification step.
  • A code will be texted to your mobile phone. Make sure to have your phone with you.
  • Once you receive the code, please enter it into the verification page.
