Energy Rental is a resource-sharing mechanism on the TRON blockchain network. It allows TRX holders to lease their idle Energy resources to other users, thereby earning passive income.
For more details, you can refer to the official TRON developer documentation: https://developers.tron.network/docs/staking-on-tron-network#how-to-delegate-resources
Option 1: Deposit Rental — Highest Efficiency & Maximum APY
Deposit Rental is the most convenient leasing solution. By transferring TRX to the energy service provider’s managed address, the provider automatically handles the entire process of staking, leasing, and profit distribution for you.
-
Key Highlights:
Ultimate Simplicity: A one-step process; no need to understand complex staking, delegating, or authorization logic.
Cost-Effective: Saves the 100 TRX authorization fee and multiple transaction fees generated by manual operations.
Professional Management: Professional teams optimize resource utilization to ensure timely and transparent payouts.
Best For: Holders seeking the simplest and most convenient investment method.
Option 2: Authorized Rental
Authorized Rental is a mechanism where you grant "Energy Delegation Permissions" from your TRON address to the service provider. You do not need to transfer your assets; the provider manages the leasing of the Energy on your address on your behalf.
-
Security & Safety:
Limited Permission: The provider only has delegation rights and cannot transfer or perform any ownership actions on your TRX.
Self-Custody: Assets remain in your wallet and under the control of your private key throughout the process.
Native Protocol: Built on the TRON underlying protocol rather than third-party smart contracts, eliminating "backdoor" risks.
Best For: Long-term TRX holders seeking stable returns with high security.
Note: Enabling delegation permissions for the first time requires a one-time network fee of 100 TRX.
Option 3: Delegation Rental
Based on the TRON Stake 2.0 mechanism, users complete the staking/locking process themselves and only delegate the resulting "Energy Quota" to the service provider.
-
Core Advantages:
Asset Self-Hold: Your TRX remains staked within your own address, offering the highest level of security.
Native Functionality: Utilizes TRON’s underlying protocol, ensuring no smart contract risks.
Zero Authorization Fee: No 100 TRX fee required; only a negligible amount of Bandwidth is consumed to point the delegation.
Best For: Users familiar with TRON mechanisms who wish to avoid additional authorization fees.
Reminder: Once delegation is revoked, the unstaking of TRX follows the TRON network’s standard lock-up period (approx. 14 days).
