CPYYY - Direct Energy Announces Connect to Detect 24 Plan in Texas
HOUSTON, March 26, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Direct Energy®, one of the largest energy and energy-related services providers in North America, teamed up with its sister company Centrica Hive to offer the "Connect to Detect 24 Plan", which includes the Hive View indoor camera and a 24-month fixed price electricity plan.
"This plan offers peace of mind on two levels. A fixed rate electricity plan that will protect consumers from price variability, and an indoor camera so they can stay connected to their home while they are away," said Bruce Stewart, president, Direct Energy, North America Home. "We customize our plans to meet the needs of our customers and we are proud to partner with Hive to offer more connected home experiences."
Hive View is a smart, indoor camera that will automatically start recording and send a notification informing it has detected motion or a sound.

Captured content can be viewed for 24-hours, or customers can upgrade their experience to include Hive Video Playback Membership, a service that gives 30-day rolling video history.
