I know that many of us use the Imeasure site to enter our meter readings and calculate carbon emissions.
Just a reminder that the readings for the week to 5th October are due.

There is a carbon club set up for MSE users, MoneySaving Carbon Club, which currently has 66 members, although I don't think that all the members are using the site.

Whilst the site does calculate an amount spent on gas and electric, please remember that this is based upon average Kwh prices and there is no facility to enter you own unit prices. There is a spreadsheet on this board that can calculate a more accurate costing.

www.Imeasure.org.uk

My use for the week,
Gas 222 Kwh :eek:
Elec 72 Kwh :T

    We have just fully insulated so I will keep an eye on use and sign up.

    I do use my EON energy tracker as it illustrates to the children how they have saved energy in a graph format but I can only enter 3 x readings a quarter and I would prefer to track more accurately that that at the moment.

    Ive joined the website - do I ahve to join a special carbon club too?

    My gas has jumped from 344kwh last week to 532 this week. Will send OH down the cellar to read elec soon.

    Don't think I'm going to keep my C rating!

    Pretty useless measure since they only accept gas readings in whole units and don't accept fractional readings. Not much use for low users.

    True, but I suppose us high users are more worried about it! How about entering your readings every two weeks? Or once a month?

    I'm a member of the MoneySaving Carbon Club, that will rank you with other members of the club ;)
    After having the heating on, I think I could be propping up the club. :)

    KimYeovil, you can also enter your electric readings and if your gas reading stays the same for a couple of weeks and then increases by 1 unit, does it matter :confused:

    I forgot to read my meters this morning was in a bit of a rush, will do it after work. I think I'm a lowish gas user and still put my readings in every week just means some weeks look higher than others, but that doesn't bother me. Mind you when the heating goes on I'll probably get a more even looking graph.
