22.8 MWh of heat a year (14.2%)
Published field
impact · verbatim
Mapping
mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this file
What the mapping says
For a night-time pump shutdown with restart at 4:00, the report extrapolates a final-energy saving in heat of 22.8 MWh a year, 14.2%, for the school without its gym.
Caveat
This is a simulated upper-bound potential; the report says the restart may need to be earlier in practice and recommends a prototype with continued monitoring.
