readings for the week processed.
Electricity down by 2kWh (so it looks like not using TV/radio/laptop offset the use of the tumble dryer)
Gas down by a whopping 34kWh, which equates to a whopping 27% reduction since last week :T
Household CO2 down by 8kg (14.5%)
Compared to this week last year, I've seen a drop in electricity of 7kWh (11%) and in gas of 23kWh (20%). Household CO2 down by 7kg, which is almost 13%.Cheryl0 -

Another great week, the cooler weekend was offset with the girls being away so not too much damage done :-)
units & CO2 both down 21% on last weeks.:j0 -
Forgot I had a question, wondered if those of you who have a history of annual readings could tell me roughly at which point of the year do you hit half way with your consumption?0

Taking useage from 30/12/2008 to 28/12/2009 (closest I can get to the calendar year), I used 3346kWh electricity and 7202kWh gas
So the half way points are 1673 (elec) and 3601 (gas)
Electricity reached 1674kWh on 6/7/2009 (was 1609kWh on 29/6/2009), and gas reached 3659kWh on 30/3/2009 (was 3465kW on 23/3/2009).Cheryl0 -
Oh dear this weeks badges are a B and C just as well I wasn't home most of the time.
This week is 8 kWh for electricity.0 -
2 x (D-side of) C's for me again with last weeks readings.
This weeks just plugged into my spreadsheet, which show a drop of 5kWh (9%) on the electricity (despite having my pressure washer out again yesterday, but I managed to do one less washload than normal at the weekend and was out from Fri eve until Sun am) but an increase (!) of 12kWh (13%) on my gas
Not sure why the increase in gas - unless DS has figured how to boost the heating when I'm not home
CO2 still down by 1kg thoughCheryl0 -
Last weeks results got me A+ on both groups and 4 kg of CO2.:j
This weeks results are a little higher than expected with 23 kWh of gas, 16 kWh of elecricity and 13.2 kg of CO2 - well OK over 200% higher.:eek::)0
