Things to do
Hey Team! - The amount of electricity your school uses overnight is high. Over the last year you used on average 6 kW. In other schools like yours (similar number of pupils), this baseload is 3.5 kW. Can you bring your baseload down, and save the school £8,300?
Your school's electricity use over the last year was 120,000 kWh and generated 20,000 kg CO2. This is too high. Other schools with a similar number of pupils use 100,000 kWh. Reducing your electricity use to match this level would save you £8,900. What can you do to help?
Measure classroom temperatures to find out whether you should turn down the heating to save energy
Start a transport survey so that you can find out how much carbon your school community generates by travelling to school
