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

Review progress

There is a large variation in seasonal overnight electricity usage from 11 kW in the winter to 6.4 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.

Last year you used 2,100 kWh of gas and 2,900 kWh of electricity in the Easter 2024 holidays. Turn off your heating, hot water and electrical appliances to save around £760 this year.
