Whoa - last week the amount of electricity you use overnight increased. If this keeps happening it will cost you £763 more over the next year. Time to investigate, Energy Team!
There is a large variation in your school's seasonal overnight electricity usage from 5.46 kW in the winter to 3.07 kW in the summer. This suggests heating is left running overnight during the winter. This can either be electric heating, or other types of heating that requires electricity for pumps or fans. Talk to the site manager to change heating settings to save £184 annually.
