Well done, you are making progress towards achieving your target to reduce your electricity usage!

Review progress

Your school's electricity use over the last year was 24,000 kWh and generated 3,100 kg CO2. This is too high. Other schools with a similar number of pupils use 23,000 kWh. Reducing your electricity use to match this level would save you £130.  What can you do to help?

There is a large variation in your school's seasonal overnight electricity usage from 1.9 kW in the winter to 1 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 £64 annually.
