Reminders

Your school's recent electricity data is missing. We have asked your supplier to restore access to the data. Once we have been granted access, the recent data will be displayed on your dashboard. Your school has three electricity meters. It has come to our attention that data for MPAN 1050000313582 is estimated. This will be raised with the MAT. In the meantime, this meter's data has been removed from your account. As a result, your account does not show your school's total electricity usage at the moment.
