The below Parliamentary question was asked by Tom Greatrex on 2014-06-26.

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what estimate he has made of his Department’s consumption in kWh of (a) gas and (b) electricity in each month since June 2010; and what the cost of such consumption has been in each such month.

Dr Andrew Murrison

The table shows the breakdown of consumption and expenditure relating to gas and electricity for each month since June 2010. Figures are not yet available for the first quarter of Financial Year 2014-15

The expenditure data represents physical payments in addition to the accrued expenditure posted to the Ministry of Defence accounts each month.

Expenditure also includes standing charges as well as costs of pure consumption.

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Tom Greatrex on 2014-06-26.

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what estimate he has made of his Department’s consumption in kWh of (a) gas and (b) electricity in each month since June 2010; and what the cost of such consumption has been in each such month.

Elizabeth Truss

The Department for Education has cut its annual energy bill by £1.4m since 2009-10 through reduced energy consumption, and has reduced its greenhouse gas emissions by 38% in the same period.

Emission reductions from energy use have largely been achieved through low and no cost energy efficiency measures, estate rationalisation (by using space more efficiently and co-locating with other organisations), and by operating our remaining buildings even more efficiently.

The Department’s monthly gas and electricity consumption and associated costs since June 2010 are set out below.

* Gaps in financial data are due to delayed billing cycles and inaccurate consumption estimates made by the supplier.

The core department’s electricity is purchased via the Crown Commercial Service energy framework from renewable sources, and is therefore, exempt from the Climate Change Levy.

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Tom Greatrex on 2014-06-26.

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what estimate he has made of his Department’s consumption in kWh of (a) gas and (b) electricity in each month since June 2010; and what the cost of such consumption has been in each such month.

Dan Rogerson

The cost and consumption of electricity and gas purchased by Core Defra, for the period June 2010 to May 2014, is set out in the tables. This data is taken from monthly energy invoices for this period.

Core Defra has rationalised its estate during the period covered by this report and has consolidated into fewer buildings. This is reflected in the downward trend in cost and consumption.

All energy covered by this report was procured through Crown Commercial Services (CCS) Energy Frameworks.

Notes:

The data provided in this report may not be consistent with data published elsewhere because it includes consumption and costs which are normally allocated to third party occupants of Defra’s Buildings.

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what estimate he has made of his Department’s consumption in kWh of (a) gas and (b) electricity in each month since June 2010; and what the cost of such consumption has been in each such month.

Mr David Lidington

I attach a table which shows the monthly consumption and the annual cost of electricity and gas for the Foreign and Commonwealth Office’s UK estate. To provide a breakdown of monthly utility costs from June 2010 would incur a disproportionate cost.

Gas and Electricity Costs

The Department’s previous way of processing energy bills, makes it difficult to provide meaningful and relevant monthly costs for earlier years but the annual expenditure for 2009-12 is as follows:

Year	Gas	Electricity
2009-10	£160,572	£1,253,708
2010-11	£117,690	£862,052
2011-12	£139,343	£1,145,671

The following table outlines the monthly costs of gas and electricity consumption in the Department’s buildings from April 2012-13 to March 2013-14.

	Gas		Electricity
	2012-13	2013-14	2012-13	2013-14
