Solar PV works well at schools as peak output from the panels around midday coincides with peak consumption at your school. Schools are now seeing a return on their investment within five to ten years.
These savings are based on the estimated annual savings in energy use if solar panels were installed in these schools. Savings do not include capital costs. View the analysis for individual schools for more information on our estimates, including capital costs and payback periods.

Improve your thermostatic control
A building with good thermostatic control means that the colder it is outside the higher the gas consumption for heating.
These savings are based on improving the thermostatic control in schools, to use less gas when the weather is warmer. This
could be by checking thermostats or configuring weather compensation settings on boilers.
