No, you cannot cancel the electricity bill even if your tenant does not pay the rent.

We know that this can be really uncomfortable and unfair, but if you do so, you can be prosecuted for coercion. The first thing you will need to do is to inform us of your case by making a claim on our platform (make sure you do this between the second and third non-payment and not afterwards). Then the manager assigned to your case will guide you on what steps to follow that are in your best interest as the owner.
