Why CommunityUtilities

Through previous expense reduction programs, we saved more than $ 5.5 million in electricity and gas charges over three years for strata properties considered medium to low energy users. This was an average saving of $3,628 per scheme.

The savings you achieve are dependent on your usage and your current rates. If we cannot find savings on your utilities, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing you are at a competitive rate.

This value-added service offers energy comparisons at no direct cost and no obligation.

Our current expense reduction program

Let our team help find you a competitive rate for your common property energy

We work with an expert panel of energy affiliates who can help you access competitive energy rates for your common property based on usage. Once you have switched to the new agreement, the energy brokers conduct regular health assessments to check your strata property is on a good rate.

Customers with commercial and industrial (C&I) grade electricity accounts are familiar with using energy affiliates to assist with electricity contracts.

CommunityUtilities provides the expertise of energy affiliates regardless of how much electricity or gas your common property uses. Even if the electricity consumption is $250 per year, CommunityUtilities can help to find savings.

No costs, no obligations

There is no cost to use our energy panel or for our CommunityUtilities team to assist with the behind-the-scenes work. The only exception is if you have an embedded network or a complex utility setup, there may be additional costs. We will let you know about any extra costs before we move forward. If a committee meeting is required before proceeding, your strata manager may charge their usual additional services fee.
