I think you need to either find a way of billing them fairly for the power they use, or adjusting the rent to take into account potential electricity usage. Its going to be simpler in the long run, and fairer for both sides. Trying to tell them what they can/can't do it overly restrictive and I think you could open yourself to a legitimate complaint(s).
I may well do this, maybe only charging a tenant if there usage is a lot more than other tenants.
(However anyone that is aiming at the DSS end of the market finds it very hard to get money out of a tenant and finds it hard to adjust the rent as tenants just expect to pay the housing benefit level.)
