See why residents love ResidentShield Power

When it comes to creating exceptional living experiences for residents, convenience and cost savings matter. ResidentShield Power is a retail energy supplier owned and operated by Yardi that provides electricity directly to residential properties and their residents. It simplifies energy signup for residents and can deliver rewards points on their bill each month.

What is ResidentShield Power?

ResidentShield Power is a retail energy service that allows residents to easily set up electricity when they move in, without the hassle of shopping for providers or dealing with confusing plans. It’s integrated directly into Yardi’s RentCafe applicant and resident portals, making the process seamless for both property managers and residents.

Instead of navigating multiple websites or waiting on hold with utility companies, residents can activate power in minutes through their RentCafe online leasing workflow. This means fewer delays, fewer headaches and a better move-in experience.
