Review progress

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

Review progress
Last year you used 37,000 kWh of gas and 34,000 kWh of electricity in the Summer 2025 holidays. Turn off your heating, hot water and electrical appliances to save around £9,200 this year. 
Watch out - the heating or hot water is running during the current school holidays! Up to the school used 19,000 kWh of gas during this holiday, which has cost £780 and generated 3,500 kg CO2. Make sure both your heating and hot water are switched off to prevent further waste.

If you choose to leave your heating and/or hot water running, by the end of the holidays you will have used 33,000 kWh, costing £1,300 and generating 6,100 kg CO2.
