Reduce your out of hours electricity use
Out of hours electricity use is the amount of electricity used when the school is closed - overnight, at weekends and during the holidays. Reducing out of hours electricity use is one of the easiest, and cheapest ways of saving
lots of energy.
These figures are based on a comparison of electricity usage outside of school hours against the best performing
schools. Ensuring that school opening hours are up to date will improve the accuracy of the analysis.
