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

Review progress

There is a large variation in seasonal overnight electricity usage from 13 kW in the winter to 4.4 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 £2,200 annually.
