Well done, you achieved your last target to reduce your gas use.

Review progress

We have limited energy data for your school. You can enter monthly consumption data to show progress against any targets set or observe changes in consumption over a longer period of time.

Supply historical manual readings
There is a large variation in your school's seasonal overnight electricity usage from 32.8 kW in the winter to 22.6 kW in the summer. This suggests heating is left running overnight during the winter. This can either be electric heating, or other types of heating that requires electricity for pumps or fans. Change heating settings to save £3,000 annually.

Last week, electricity used at night decreased by 3.27% compared to the average over the last year. Keep this up and the school will save £1,150 over the next year.
