Submeter electric billing on autopilot — bill actual kWh, not flat fees.

RoverPass pulls kWh reads from Wild Energy smart meters at each site and posts the usage charge to the guest's reservation. Owners stop eating the cost of heavy-use guests and stop guessing at power fees.

What is Wild Energy?

Wild Energy builds purpose-built submetering hardware for RV parks and campgrounds. Their smart meters install on existing pedestals, capture kWh per site, and push reads to RoverPass over the network.

Unlike utility-grade meters, Wild Energy's units are designed for park-level deployment: a single concentrator can handle 100+ sites, and the meters survive the same weather your pedestals do.

Why are we offering this integration?

Three problems Wild Energy solves at the source:

• Snowbird billing. Winter long-stays burn power. A flat $40/month fee turns into a margin disaster when the actual usage is $200. Wild Energy bills the real number on the monthly invoice.
• Seasonal rate pass-through. When your utility rate climbs, you absorb it on flat-fee sites. With metering, the rate increase flows to the guest automatically.
• Dispute-proof folios. Show the guest itemized check-in and check-out kWh reads on the receipt. Power disputes effectively disappear.

How does Wild Energy work with RoverPass?

1. Guest checks into a metered site. Wild Energy records the check-in kWh value.
2. Wild Energy records kWh usage continuously throughout the stay.
3. RoverPass pulls reads at checkout via API.
4. Usage charge posts to the reservation at the per-kWh rate you set (by site type, by season, or flat across the park).
5. Arrival and departure reads are stored on the reservation — both numbers print on the folio.

What are the requirements?

• Wild Energy smart meters installed at sites you want to meter
• Active Wild Energy account with API access
• RoverPass concierge activation appointment

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I have to meter every site? No. Start with monthly/snowbird sites where the ROI is fastest, and add transient sites later if it makes sense.

Q: How accurate are the meters? Wild Energy uses utility-grade revenue-class measurement — accurate enough to bill from in every state RoverPass operates in.

Q: Can I bill by tiered rate (e.g. first 500 kWh at $0.12, rest at $0.18)? Yes — tiered rates are supported per site type or season.

Q: What does it cost? Wild Energy hardware and the account subscription are paid directly to Wild Energy. Pricing depends on how many sites you meter. The RoverPass-side integration is included in the Integrations bundle ($29/month).

Q: How do I get started? Submit a support ticket or reach out to your RoverPass account manager. We coordinate setup with Wild Energy's install team.
