Energy Rental

Most of the transactions on TRON consume Bandwidth and Energy. To obtain Energy, users typically need to stake or burn TRX. However, staking involves a 14-day lockup period, while burning TRX incurs hefty costs.

If you are in urgent need of Energy for borrowing or swap transactions and are deterred by the high TRX burning costs, "Energy Rental" presents you with a more affordable and flexible alternative. Let's say you rent 100,000 Energy, which may occupy you 8,000 TRX if you stake TRX to get the Energy. With Energy Rental, you only need to pay 5 TRX and can get Energy that is enough for 2 transactions.

If you are managing multiple wallets and a particular account requires Energy, but there is no sufficient balance in its wallet to cover the rent, you can use other wallet addresses to rent Energy for the particular address.

Rent Energy

Go to the “Energy Rental” page, and enter the desired amount of Energy and rental duration (in days or hours as wanted). Then, submit and sign to complete the process.

If you need to rent Energy for another address, click "Rent for another address" below "Rental Duration". The receiving address must be an activated TRON address that starts with the letter "T".

Renew Rental

Upon successful rental, an order list will appear on the right side of the page, allowing you to renew or end the rental at any time. Alternatively, you may access the "Energy Rental Orders" page to manage the orders. You can renew a rental order only by Energy or duration, or both.

End Rental

Energy Rental allows you to borrow and return Energy at any time. Simply click the "End" button, confirm the details, and sign to complete the process. After that, the remaining rent and security deposit will be refunded to your wallet. Click here to view the rules of rent calculation in Energy Rental.

Orders that are not ended on time will be liquidated by the community. The prepaid amount for these orders will be partially or fully liquidated based on actual Energy usage and distributed as rewards to the liquidators (community).

Please note that prices will fluctuate with market rental conditions, so please keep an eye on the expiration date of your rental order.

Energy Rental Cost

The cost of renting energy on the platform is mainly divided into two parts:

  • Contract Interaction Fees: Currently, 90% of this fee is covered by the platform, and users only need to pay 10% of the transaction fee, which is approximately 1.5 TRX. In the future, this fee could be further significantly reduced.

  • Energy Rental Fees: the price is 60 sun/day at this moment. If the energy is returned immediately after use, only half the fee is charged (30 sun/day). The rental fees will fluctuate based on the platform’s energy usage rate. Given the platform’s deep STRX energy reserves, the cost of energy rental is more stable compared to the traditional energy rental market.

When renting energy, users need to pay an upfront amount in advance, including rent and deposit. The rent is used to pay the energy rental fee. The amount can be freely specified by the user according to the duration requirement. The rent will be deducted according to the use of energy. The deposit mainly includes liquidation fees. If the user does not return the lease in time, the liquidation fee will be paid to the liquidator as a reward.

Gas Fee Subsidy !

When utilizing JustLend DAO for energy rental transactions, the contract subsidizes 90% of the gas fees. You can check the exact subsidy amount in the transaction details (TronScan - Transaction Details - Resources Consumed & Fee - Energy Consumed).

Please note that JustLend DAO offers a daily cap on gas subsidies. Once this limit is reached within a 24-hour period, users will be responsible for covering the full gas fees.
