Reminders

We are currently unable to display your electricity data between 25 April 2025 - 11 October 2025 due to a communications fault with your meter. As such we are only displaying the data from October 2025 onwards whilst we work with your supplier to try and access the data from this missing period. There is also a lag with the electricity data which we have also raised with your supplier.

Please note that your Trust's gas data is estimated between the 28th of February and 31st of March 2024 due to a data issue with your previous supplier
