Reminders

Gas only supplies the two Combined Heat and Power (CHP) units at the school, which are only run intermittently on demand if required. Your gas use is therefore not typical for a secondary school.

There is a large variation in seasonal overnight electricity usage from 54 kW in the winter to 31 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 £4,400 annually.
