Pioneer Energy Management Acquires Southern Water Management

 

WESTERVILLE, OH – On June 1, 2025, Pioneer Energy Management acquired the Florida-based utility submetering company, Southern Water Management, Inc.

Southern Water Management currently offers water submetering systems and billing services to its customers. With this acquisition, Pioneer Energy Management will now be responsible for the reading and billing of nearly 100,000 meters every month.

“We’re thrilled to welcome Southern Water Management to the PEM family,” David Hatcher, President and CEO, said. “As a result of this acquisition, PEM will be able to provide a more in-depth list of solutions to Southern Water Management’s current customers.”

Both Pioneer Energy Management and Southern Water Management have similar company missions and core values. Current customers can expect little change with this acquisition, as the organization’s focus will remain the same – prioritizing utility conservation with an emphasis on creating a best-in-class customer experience.

“We care about our customers and we want to help our partners and tenants accurately monitor their utility usage,” Chief Operating Officer, Sarah DeLong, said.  “We’re passionate about what we do, and we look forward to providing tailored energy management solutions to current Southern Water Management business customers and their residents to create a sustainable future for generations to come.”
