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

Review progress

Last year you used 20,000 kWh of gas and 8,000 kWh of electricity in the Easter 2024 holidays. Turn off your heating, hot water and electrical appliances to save around £2,400 this year. 

There is a large variation in seasonal overnight electricity usage from 23 kW in the winter to 16 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 £1,300 annually.
