    Contact electricity company and tell them you moved out on xxx date(with meter reading if you have it) and are not responsible for any consumption from that date.

    When you phone them expect to have ot provide proof of moving out and where you live now. If you still have bank statements etc sent to old address they may reject that you have moved out.
