Let's look at the energy use data for your school:
Things to do
Hey Team! - The amount of electricity your school uses overnight is high. Over the last year you used on average 6.9 kW. In other schools like yours (similar number of pupils), this baseload is 3.9 kW. Can you bring your baseload down, and save the school £4,000?
There is a large variation in your school's seasonal overnight electricity usage from 13 kW in the winter to 5.2 kW in the summer. This suggests electric heating is left running overnight during the winter or the school has inefficient security or flood lights. Talk to the site manager to change electric heater settings and improve lighting efficiency to save £1,400 annually.
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
