Watch out! Up to Wednesday 19 Feb 2025 the school used 3,700 kWh of electricity during this holiday, which has cost £560 and generated 590 kg CO2. Make sure lights and electrical equipment are switched off to prevent further waste.

If you choose to leave electrical equipment running, by the end of the holidays you will have used 6,600 kWh, costing £1,000 and generating 1,100 kg CO2.

There is a large variation in seasonal overnight electricity usage from 23 kW in the winter to 18 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 £2,100 annually.
