Turn off auto-pay:

If you have set an automatic bill pay each time your energy bill is due, it can be easy to pay without thinking or monitoring your usage. Be diligent and always check your bills, estimates often cost you more going forward. Each time you get a bill is it best practice to compare electric usage to find out if there has been a spike in price or usage and why. There can be many reasons for an increase such as the weather, busy-time periods with staff working more hours etc.

If there are rate hikes, you should be vigilant because it might simply be due to misreading the meter or accounting errors.

Double-check the work of your energy provider by checking your meter as well. You can compare your current reading to the previous reading if there is any significant difference.
