We have limited energy data for your school. You can enter monthly consumption data to show progress against any targets set or observe changes in consumption over a longer period of time.

Supply historical manual readings

Your electricity data is out of date. Energy Sparks is working with your energy contract manager and energy supplier to fix this problem

There is a large variation in your school's seasonal overnight electricity usage from 150 kW in the winter to 57 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. Change heating settings to save £19,000 annually.
