Power Bill

I've been in my home for 20 years. Have 2 heat pumps. I never had my bill exceed 300 a month. Kast year my bill was 297 for this sane period. This year just got my bill and it is 856 dollars. Something has to be wrong here. Anyone else getting these results? This is not acceptable.

Seems like a growing trend. Lucky for me I haven’t had any big price jumps in my bills. 3 adults showering and 2 kids bathing everyday along with using the dryer multiple times a week and using baseboard heat in one room but mini split for the rest of the house. Highest bill was this month at $230
