Case scenario: electric bill increases suddenly by X dollars a month, and remains so indeterminately. Property owner inevitably notices the change in the monthly bill, but takes no action.

Remember, this is a SUDDEN and CONSISTENT (and exciting!) change to the otherwise mundane bill they're used to receiving each month.
