If you frequently transfer USDT or interact with smart contracts on the TRON network, you've probably heard of Energy — one of the two key resources required for transactions, alongside Bandwidth. Without enough Energy, the network burns your TRX to pay for transaction fees. But there’s good news: you can buy Energy directly and save significantly on fees.
What Is TRON Energy?
In the TRON blockchain, Energy is consumed whenever a smart contract is executed. Sending TRC-20 tokens (like USDT) uses smart contracts, and therefore consumes Energy. If you don’t have enough Energy in your wallet, TRX will be burned instead — which often results in much higher costs.
Why Buy Energy?
Here’s why purchasing Energy is better than letting TRX get burned:
- Save money: Renting Energy is up to 80% cheaper than burning TRX.
- Faster processing: Avoid delays caused by insufficient resources.
- No need to freeze TRX: Buying is easier and quicker than staking.
How to Buy Energy
You can easily purchase Energy using third-party services like FeeSaver, which allow you to rent the required amount instantly.
Step-by-step process:
- Go to the FeeSaver Telegram bot: @FeeSaver_bot
- Tap on Instant Purchase.
- The bot will provide a wallet address and pricing for Energy units.
- Send the specified amount of TRX to the given address.
- The system will instantly deliver Energy to the same address from which you made the payment.
That's it — you're ready to send USDT without paying high TRX fees!
How Much Energy Do You Need?
For a typical USDT TRC-20 transfer, you need around 65,000 to 130,000 units of Energy, depending on network conditions. Most users buy enough Energy for multiple transactions to avoid frequent top-ups.
Final Thoughts
Buying TRX Energy is a practical and cost-effective strategy for anyone working with the TRON blockchain. Whether you're an individual trader or a business handling multiple transactions, renting Energy ensures smooth and affordable operations.
