Every month, your energy use can change. Here are some reasons why:

• Weather: Your bill changes depending on how you heat or cool your business.
• Number of days in a billing cycle: Some months have more days in their billing cycles. More days can mean a higher bill.
• Estimated meter reads followed by an actual meter read: When estimates don’t match what you used, an actual meter read adjusts your bill according to your use. 
• Equipment: When you add equipment to your business, your energy use increases; when you replace older equipment with newer, more efficient equipment, you use less energy.
• Production: When you add a shift or speed up your production demands, your energy use increases; when your production slows, your energy demands decrease.
