Was one of your New Year's resolutions to get a better handle on tech? How about to simplify your life with it? Reliant is ready to help you do both.

Customers who sign up for Reliant's Truly Free Weekends plan will not only get their electricity completely free each weekend, but also a brand-new Google Home Hub loaded with Google Assistant — entirely free of charge.

Here are five ways that the Reliant and Google partnership is making your life easier this year:

1. Bills are no longer a surprise
Wondering about your current balance? Just link your Google Home Hub with your Reliant account, and then you can automatically find out your account balance, its due date, and when your plan expires, all with commands such as "Hey Google, ask Reliant, how much is my bill."

2. Everything at a glance
Reliant is the first energy company in the U.S. to use Google's Assistant developer tools to create visual displays, meaning you can see — as well as hear — Google's responses on the Hub's seven-inch screen, including your personalized weekly energy usage.

3. Free weekend reminders
Simply say, "Hey Google" to find out when your free weekend hours begin, plus set up alerts to be automatically reminded.

4. Make it personal
When you personalize your device you can easily search on Google and YouTube, get directions, find photos or videos, adjust the temperature in your home, turn off the lights before bed, find out what to wear for the day by getting an update on the weather, and get scores from your favorite teams.

5. Know you're getting the best
Thanks to a partnership inked in 2018, Reliant is now the premier retail electricity provider of Google Home and Nest products in Texas. This means that Reliant is the first to offer the latest smart home innovations from Google and Nest, paired with a compelling new suite of electricity plans.

Visit the Reliant website to learn more about the Truly Free Weekends plan and how you can get a Google Home Hub for free.
