Last year you used 450 kWh of gas and 11,000 kWh of electricity in the Xmas 2023 holidays. Turn off your heating, hot water and electrical appliances to save around £2,900 this year. 

There is a large variation in seasonal overnight electricity usage from 43 kW in the winter to 26 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 £21,000 annually.
