I do something similar; I have one spreadsheet for Electricity, and another
one far water.

Perhaps not. But recognize that GnuCash is built upon an abstract data
model where the elements and their relationship to one another have meaning.

As to #3, I track my utilities with a spreadsheet in Libre Office. What are

the "notes" field, but reporting on tis info I'm not sure about.
