You can automatically sign up your new tenants for electricity with EWII. This way you avoid prepaying electricity for the lease and your tenant can benefit from the green energy from EWII. You can read more about the benefits of EWII’s automatic administration service on their website.
If your tenant is not registered, they either have to sign up for another electricity provider themselves or you might be responsible for providing electricity for the lease. This is dependant on what you indicate in the rental contract.
How does it work?
To get your tenant signed up, you simply select “Sign tenant up for electricity” during the step “Set up lease” when you are setting up a new lease.
If you choose to have the tenant registed for electricity, they will receive an email from Proper containing a link to a form where they can fill in the necessary details themselves. Here, the tenant can enter their CPR number and confirm their registration with EWII before the contract is created and sent for signature.
If you download your contract to manage the signing manually, you will also get the option to download the Power of Attorney, so that the tenant can sign it. Please remember to upload the signed document when you get it back, so the tenant can be registered.
Proper will then send all the necessary information directly to EWII who will contact your tenant regarding further necessary information.
If you choose to upload an already signed contract, instead of sending one out for signature via the platform, this feature can still be used. In that case, the tenant will also receive an email with a link to the form.
What if the tenant changes his mind or moves out?
Your tenant has the option to revoke their registration with EWII within the first two weeks which will result in a cancellation. Usually your tenant is then responsible to find another electricity provider.
Once a tenant moves out, Proper automatically informs EWII. We will either send the information about the new tenant to be registered or in case of vacancy, the owner's information. Please be aware that EWII requires a CVR number for us to sign up the owner's information.
