Your electricity data is out of date.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 3.9 kW in the winter to 2.52 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 £366 annually.
