There is a large variation in seasonal overnight electricity usage from 11 kW in the winter to 5.2 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 £1,100 annually.

Last week, electricity used at night decreased by 8.1% compared to the average over the last year. Keep this up and the school will save £730 over the next year.
