Energy data

Electricity and gas - consumption and generation data


In our experience investing in microgeneration increased our sensitivity to possibilities for energy saving. Microgeneration has been very successful for us. Our base measurements were for 2004-5 (the year before the installation of photovoltaic cells).


Annual gas consumption (2 person household) - showing that, after a slow start we have reduced our gas energy consumption by over 75%.

Gas - annual running total

Annual electricity consumption (2 person household) - showing our electricity consumption (ignoring what we have generated) over the past 6 years. We have reduced our consumption by over 70%.

Electricity  - annual running total

If we include the microgeneration, then we now generate more electricity than we use in a year so our net electricity reduction is 104%.
