Reminders

We have stopped receiving electricity data from your supplier. We are waiting for your supplier to resolve this issue. Please note that your school has 4 gas meters. Data for 3 of these gas meters is available from 15/11/22. Data for the gas meter that serves the dining room, however, is only available from 03/02/23. This means that between 15/11/22 to 03/02/23 gas usage from the whole school site is not represented. Please keep this in mind when doing any analysis or comparisons during this time period.

Your electricity data is out of date.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 51 kW in the winter to 34 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 £2,400 annually.
