Yes imeasure is good for me.
As this is a Green building forum , generally discussing energy use in the built environment etc.
imeasure would be more suiting . if you fancy stting it up I'll join on

Just the two of us , we can make if we try ....

Is it a kind of 'mine is smaller than yours' club then?

I'm intrigued JT. Just what sort of parties/clubs do you frequent?

I have joined... Also I had set up a "Zero" club for those attempting to reach zero carbon, but it won't really work until imeasure lets me add my export meter readings!

Us: 2 adults, 2 children under 5
House type: end of terrace 2 storey
Internal heated floor area: 76m^2
Heating: gas combi (band D) tankless + rads
Walls: timber frame with plasterboard/void+quilt/brick, now living room superinsulated w/ 40mm aerogel
Roof: 270mm glass wool
Windows: uPVC 2G
Lighting: CFL + LED everywhere
Whitegoods: A-or-better
Microgen: 5kWp+ of PV

Just joined. Laboriously typed in 9 months of results; something wrong somewhere as year to date alleged to be 322,165Kwh, 70,046Kg CO2 & £10,709.44p! Gas meter type probably entered incorrectly. Will investigate when had some sleep.
2 adults, 1930 detached chalet bungalow,about 124M2, chimneys removed, 75mm PUR in pitch of roof over skeilings, 300mm glass wool quilt over remaining ceilings. 60mm CWI with platinum EPS beads, 60mm K5 EWB on 9" brick offshot kitchen. 200mm quilt held with re-cycled scaffold net under ground floor suspended timber floors. Condensing gas system boiler with weather compensator, DHW from 200L twin coil pressurised cylinder- no solar, yet. All DG; inherited a moderately good system but added DG with argon fill + warm spacers to extended kitchen & new 2nd bathroom roof window plus TG with krypton to new roof window on landing. Most lights now LED + 1 fluorescent and couple of CFL. MVHR with specialised cooker hood: yes I know, not really for my type of house but I would have again for the air quality,alone, as well as absolute control of condensation.

Relieved to find 1 typo in electric and 1 transposed electric in gas column. Much better at 10,715 Kwh, 2718 Kg CO2 & £465. Still last on per person basis, though. Currently running a 2nd freezer to cope with the glut from the garden and the catering for my Wife's Uncle's 95th birthday party, tomorrow.

Multiplied by the number of layers (i.e. the same way they sell properties), but not including the loft space (unless you have a room in the roof).

The size of your space doesn't effect your usage 'ranking', though it's interesting data for them. Number of people in the property does.

Is the reason your usage is high because it's all electric? There is a cool comparison gadget you can play with that allows you to look at your usage against other similar houses (by occupants/type of house/energy source)- you might be a loser overall, but doing quite well within your own category. The psychological effect is quite interesting - I was a B in my class, and an A overall last week. Have dropped to a C in my class and a B overall this week, and it is bothering me.

Talking of weeks, I have a query about dates for the CO2 figure used for the ranking. When I go into my 'results' page and view detailed results (at the bottom of the page), I see that they have calculated 25 kgCO2 for week ending Sept 5 and 38 kgCO2 for week ending Sept 12 (no idea what I was doing in the week ending Sept 12 to use an additional 13 kgCO2!). But for the ranking I have 38 kgCO2 for week ending Sept 5th (i.e. they've taken the following week's figure) - does everyone else have the same disparity between the dates?

Posted By: JTGreenAt least you will have made Brig001 temporarily happy. Bound to be wrong units for gas.

Well, temporary happiness is a start

We are 2 adults, a 16 year old and a 14 year old who both think nothing of 1/2 hour showers - an improvement on the hour I found out they were spending.
100m2 detached, brick, retro filled cavity, Thermalite block house with hoof prints in the garden.
Solid floors and 250 to 450 mm glass fibre in the loft - the extra was added over the coldest rooms of the house to even them up.
Condensing gas boiler with thermal store and radiators.
Windows: uPVC 2G
Lighting: mostly CFL
Whitegoods: all A rated except fridge.

But you still use electricity to run your GSHP, don't you? So it should let you enter the kWh of electricity you are using to run that - even if you haven't reduced your heating requirement.

"CO2" is just being used as a surrogate measure for "energy use" by imeasure.

Posted By: JTGreen"CO2" is just being used as a surrogate measure for "energy use" by imeasure.

- true, but it ascribes a much higher CO2 figure for electric heating compared to gas, for the same number of kWh consumed. Though since I'm using a heatpump with a measured COP of around 3ish, it probably comes out to the same overall.

Their FAQ explains:

Does imeasure give me credit if I purchase a green (renewable energy) electricity tariff?

imeasure does not reduce your carbon emission totals if you purchase a green tariff because the Defra carbon emissions factor for electricity takes into the amount of renewable energy inputted into the national grid. Also, imeasure is about the opportunities to reduce demand for energy in the home rather than relying on supply-side carbon emission reductions.
