Consumption: reasons for a high bill
There may be multiple reasons for higher consumption – eg, because of:
    a change in your household, such as a new baby or working from home;
    using appliances and older models that are not energy efficient;
    introducing and using new appliances, such as a tumble dryer;
    misusing lights and fans;
    higher usage of consumer electronics, such as desktop computers, gaming consoles, set top boxes and smart home technologies and products;
    your home being poorly insulated and not energy efficient.
