I think that graduated costs for utilities are already common. You pay more per unit if you use more. And that's easier to administer than going into houses to check what they have or checking to see how often someone waters their lawn.

Gasoline isn't taxed in a graduated manner though. In the old days, I think that there was a tax credit for efficient vehicles (I don't remember the implementation).
