Utility sub metering Denver. Recommendations

Anyone use submetering for Water gas and electric in Denver?
I have a triplex with 2 gas and electric meters.  Quotes to add new meter and panel from excel are a lot not to mention Xcel and Denver permits are months behind and I don’t want to wait that long.
Would sub metering be a simpler solution?

I have come across but not used this product myself. You could monitor the power usage for the two units using this device then pass through the correct billing. https://www.amazon.com/gp/prod... This assumes there is a reasonable place to put each meter such a breaker panel for each separate unit. If they share the same panel you have much more to worry about than getting another meter obviously. 

You can also get water submeters. Some require you to visually read them while others have data output that could be sent somewhere.
