Do I need an Electricity Contract? ⚡
Your electricity setup depends on your apartment type:
- Studio/Family Apartment: You usually need your own electricity contract
- Shared Apartment: PSOAS provides electricity (no contract needed)
- Some Studios: PSOAS provides electricity (no contract needed)
Note! If electricity is charged together with the rent, you do not need to make a separate contract. You can check this from your rent invoice.
Setting Up Your Contract 📝
If you need your own contract:
- Arrange it at least two weeks before your lease starts
- For short-notice move-ins, set up your contract immediately
- If you haven’t arranged a contract, Oomi Energia will be your default provider
- You have 15 days to switch to another provider if desired

Important: Remember to terminate your electricity contract when moving out.
