What is a "utility"?
A utility refers to a service or system that provides essential resources or services, such as water, electricity, gas, or waste management, to homes and businesses. Utilities are typically provided by public or private companies and are crucial for daily living. For example, electricity is needed to power lights and appliances, while water is necessary for drinking, bathing, and cooking. Utility companies are responsible for maintaining these systems and ensuring they function properly. Utilities are often paid for on a monthly basis through billing systems.
