Your landlord will know the average cost of utilities expected. Someone on rollitup reccomended calling your land lord and letting them know hey I have a couple high end gaming computers and my electricity should be expected to go up X amount and is that acceptable and would you like me to pay a little extra on top for utilities, or, hey, I want a flower garden outside and to grow some of my own veggies is watering that much okay?
I like the way dude on rullitup wrapped up what he was saying: Now you're a responsible proactive tenant who wants to pay their rent and bills. Your landlord now loves you.

I understand what you are saying I think but can provide little more than speculation or the fruit of google searches at this point.
I would assume they are able to track it by apartment for a number of reasons, finding broken pipes, asking a tenant to please stop leaving their air conditioning on all day, or spotting other abnormalities that may point to a more serious underlying problem.

They do it by having the electric company read the meters.

Being a little experienced at growing I would never do this. Nobody knows my bill but the electric company and me.
