I could not find any posts about this specific problem with bills. It is not because of the patch though. It has been going on a very long time and I just always pay and move on. I can't say how ofte...

Do you by chance have a thermostat on your lot? I remember that thermostats caused extremely high bills in the past. Not sure if that was ever fixed. If you do, try removing and testing. Just make sure your sims are always dressed for the weather so they don't freeze or overheat. (or grab the reward traits for heat / cold acclimation to give you plenty of time before they do or heat / cold proof so you never have to worry about what they are wearing.)
I do and always have. So the norm should be the norm. I'm not complaining about high bills, but to go from 90K to over 300K was my last straw. I always have to manually change the thermostat seasonally once I remember or the sims complain about being too hot or cold. I just looked and I forgot to change it again so gonna finish the week out and see what the bill is and then do a full week of keeping it warmer in the winter. I'm usually pretty on that but maybe that could be it I guess as the house is pretty large. And since I forgot to put in solar panels this might make the difference. I will post an update once I get a full bill with the furnace running full blast :)
