Delray Beach Utility Submetering and Billing
for Water, Electric and Gas
We provide all types of multifamily community property managers with Delray Beach utility submetering and billing solutions for water, electric and gas utilities. And we take a completely different approach to utility submetering and billing services. We DO NOT bundle or pre-package groups or sets of services. Instead we allow property managers to select only the services they need and then we help them customize the services they selected so they are provided exactly how they need them to be provided. Below is a more detailed look at how we serve a few of our key markets.
Utility Submetering & Billing
for Multifamily Communities
We partner with more multifamily communities than any other market. We are told this is due to how we tailor our services to the specific needs and preferences of each property manager. We understood from the very beginning and built Oates Energy around the idea that property mangers often have very specific preferences when it comes to their billing policies and how they bill residents for utilities and other monthly charges and fees.
We actually allow property managers to select the services they would like us to provide and then help them adjust how we provide those services, even our bill pay services and our resident billing customer care. We are a truly unique option for property managers to build the perfect Delray Beach utility submetering and billing solution for their community. How would you like us to help you recover more of your community’s utility costs?

Utility Submetering & Billing

We are a great find for many mobile home park property managers because we, unlike many of our competitors, are interested in customizing our utility submetering and billing services for parks with as few as 50 residences.

And we can customize our billing solutions for virtually any need.

Utility Submetering Laws and Regulations in Florida
*Where individual metering is not required and master metering is used in lieu thereof, reasonable apportionment methods, including submetering may be used by the customer of record or the owner of such facility solely for the purpose of allocating the cost of the electricity billed by the utility. The term “cost” as used herein means only those charges specifically authorized by the electric utility’s tariff, including but not limited to the customer, energy, demand, fuel, conservation, capacity and environmental charges made by the electric utility plus applicable taxes and fees to the customer of record responsible for the master meter payments.
The term “cost” does not include late payment charges, returned check charges, the cost of the customer-owned distribution system behind the master meter, the customer of record’s cost of billing the individual units, and other such costs. Any fees or charges collected by a customer of record for electricity billed to the customer’s account by the utility, whether based on the use of submetering or any other allocation method, shall be determined in a manner which reimburses the customer of record for no more than the customer’s actual cost of electricity.
Each utility shall develop a standard policy governing the provisions of submetering as provided for herein. Such policy shall be filed by each utility as part of its tariffs. The policy shall have uniform application and shall be nondiscriminatory (Fla. Administrative Code §25-6.049).
