Customers can identify spikes or patterns indicating inefficient use or potential energy-saving opportunities by tracking their energy usage over time.

3. Estimated Bill Feature

Energy usage reports often include an estimated bill feature that updates daily based on the customer's usage. This feature lets customers see the approximate amount of their next energy bill, helping them manage their energy budget effectively. By readily making this information available, customers can adjust their energy consumption and avoid surprises when their bill arrives. This feature promotes financial stability and empowers customers to take proactive steps toward energy conservation.

4. Comparative Usage

Some energy usage reports offer features such as comparative usage, which allows customers to understand their energy efficiency compared to previous years or similar households. These reports may provide information on energy usage trends and benchmarks, enabling customers to identify areas where they can improve their energy efficiency.
