Reminders

Your school has 10 electric meters, we are only showing 6 of your electric meters as the remaining meters require upgrades. We are not showing consumption for Pavilion (sports grounds). The electricity meter for Abbey House was upgraded in November 2024 so your Energy Sparks account will show a slight increase from 08/11/24.

Unfortunately you are not meeting your target to reduce your electricity usage

Review progress

Last year you used 3,800 kWh of gas and 22,000 kWh of electricity in the Xmas 2023 holidays. Turn off your heating, hot water and electrical appliances to save around £6,500 this year. 

There is a large variation in seasonal overnight electricity usage from 57 kW in the winter to 32 kW in the summer. This suggests electric heating is left running overnight during the winter or the school has inefficient security or flood lights. Change electric heater settings and improve lighting efficiency to save £25,000 annually.
