—With New Locations at NRG Stadium and in Katy, Consumers Have Access to 25 NRG Go Stations—
Just in time for football season and final summer outings, Reliant, an
NRG company, brings the NRG Go Portable Power solution to NRG Stadium
and locations throughout Katy, Texas. The NRG Go solution, a 2016
Consumer Electronics Show Innovation Awards Honoree, provides the
convenience of power on the go to keep people connected and their mobile
devices charged anywhere, anytime. Reliant even offers NRG Go as a free
benefit to its existing residential and small business electricity
customers.
“Everyone knows what ‘power anxiety’ feels like – that acute fear of
your phone battery going to zero and being helpless. With Reliant’s NRG
Go, people can get the charge they need when they’re away from outlets,”
said Elizabeth Killinger, president, Reliant and NRG Retail. “This gives
consumers peace of mind so they can take pictures of memorable moments,
find their way on maps, share spontaneous interactions and simply stay
connected. Our teams are relentless in anticipating and pursuing
convenient solutions for Texans, and portable power is another way
Reliant is the company customers can count on to power, protect and
simplify life.”
The NRG Go solution lets anyone rent a portable power pack from a
self-service station, charge their mobile device and then return the
palm-sized unit at any NRG Go location. The charging technology works
with all iPhone® 4 and later models, as well as most Android™
devices. The power pack has integrated connectors so users do not need
additional cables or outlets. Customers simply choose their phone type,
complete the touchscreen rental transaction with a credit card and go on
their way.
These new stations are in addition to seven existing NRG Go locations
across Houston, with the newest NRG Go sites at:
NRG Stadium
-
12 stations, installed at every ramp on levels one, three and five
inside the stadium.

Go Pack rentals at NRG Stadium are free for everyone on Houston Texans

unit.
