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

Review progress

Your electricity data is out of date.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 seasonal overnight electricity usage from 5.1 kW in the winter to 3.6 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 £930 annually.
