GETTING STARTED
OVERVIEW
What TronEnergy does, how Energy delegation works, and why 13,000+ delegations happen through it every single day.
TronEnergy delegates computational resources (Energy) to Tron wallets on demand, so USDT transfers go through at a fraction of their normal cost. No staking, no capital lockup, no wallet connection.
The Problem
Every USDT transfer on Tron requires a computational resource called Energy. Without it, the network burns your TRX or the transfer fails entirely.
65,000 Energy
Required for every standard USDT transfer. Double for first-time recipients.
~13 TRX Burned
What the network charges if you have no Energy. That is ~$3.50 per transfer.
8,851 Failures / Day
Our analysis of 834M transfers found 3.2 million failed due to insufficient Energy.
The Solution
Without TronEnergy
Burns ~13 TRX per transfer ($3.50)
Transfer fails if not enough TRX
User must buy TRX to cover the fee
With TronEnergy
From 4 TRX per transfer ($1.08) — linear at 16,250 Energy / TRX
Energy delegated in ~3 seconds
No wallet connection needed
Two Integration Paths
Simple (No Code)
Users send TRX to the TronEnergy wallet on tronnrg.com. Energy is delegated automatically. No API key, no wallet connection.
API (For Platforms)
Your platform calls our REST API to delegate Energy programmatically. Send TRX, sign a message to prove ownership, and claim via the API.
const API = 'https://api.tronnrg.com';
const ADDR = 'TFqUiCu1JwLHHnBNeaaVKH7Csm4aA3YhZx';
// Step 1: Send TRX to the payment address
// Linear pricing: 16,250 energy per TRX. Min 4 TRX (65k energy), max 1,000 TRX.
// 4 → 65k · 8 → 130k · 16 → 260k · 40 → 650k · 1000 → 16.25M
const delegateTo = 'TRecipientWallet';
const trxAmount = 4; // change this for more energy
const payment = await tronWeb.trx.sendTransaction(ADDR, trxAmount * 1e6);
// Step 2: Sign — proves you are the sender
const message = `${payment.txid}:${delegateTo}`;
const signature = await tronWeb.trx.signMessageV2(message);
// Step 3: Claim the delegation
const result = await fetch(`${API}/delegate`, {
method: 'POST',
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
body: JSON.stringify({
tx_hash: payment.txid,
delegate_to: delegateTo,
signature,
}),
}).then(res => res.json());
console.log(result.energy); // trxAmount × 16,250 (e.g. 4 → 65000)
console.log(result.delegations[0].tx); // on-chain tx hash
console.log(result.ref); // "nrg_d_42"

COUNTRIES
Non-Custodial
We never hold user USDT or tokens. Energy is delegated via the Tron protocol. No wallet connection required.
Automatic Refunds
If delegation fails after payment, TRX is automatically refunded to the sender address on-chain.
15-Minute Lock
Energy is delegated for 15 minutes. More than enough time to complete your USDT transfer.
