Maintaining broad based support for net zero means cutting emissions whilst delivering growth, reducing cost of living and not telling people they can't live the lives they want. Clean power, electrification of transport & heat allow this. Indeed, they can be an upgrade.

BREAKING NEWS❗ The UK heat pump had a bumper year with 63% market growth. Still a long way to go but if maintained in future years the UK would meet its 600,000 heat pumps installed per year in 2028 target. Source is @HeatPumpAssoc

It's hilarious when trolls, russians and people with anonymous accounts accuse clean energy people of being grifters. They should see the oil and gas grift. It cost you £100bn in the crisis and £17m in 3 hours last week. There've been fossil fuel crises since I was a kid.

Recently had a great time chatting to drivers about owning an EV with and without a driveway. The idea? scary! The reality? Pretty simple actually (and getting better every all the time) 💚 It was honestly a surprise to me (being blessed with a home charger), but the general

Is the boiler industry gas lighting you? Accused of “campaigns of misinformation” & “price gouging” by Ministers lobbying that could “hurt” customers @CitizensAdvice Do consumers need to think twice before trusting what the industry says? Let’s have a look at the evidence..🧵

My message to the Conservatives who oppose our clean power mission: Your party gambled with the British people's money in the fossil fuel casino, and working people paid the price. This Government will never let that happen again.

How is it possible that heat pumps can extract energy from the air even when it’s freezing cold outside? It’s because there’s energy in the air down to -273C which is absolute zero.

It is crucial that policy makers use wind (and solar) to reduce bills. If citizens can see bills falling because of wind, no one will want to tear down the turbines. If they put bills up, it’s a gift to the climate deniers and their fossil fuel friends
The head of the proven and court-confirmed extreme far-right and Nazi AfD party Alice Weidel, who Elon Musk says is the only one that will save 🇩🇪 Germany, shouted in a party meeting aggressively: "When we are in power, we will tear down all wind turbines. Down with these

That’s a lot of battery for <2k. Imagine IF (a big IF) yOuR bAtTeRy dies in your cheap old used car. 2nd hand batteries already a thing. Super simple swap in. I’d rather do this than change a DMF.

UK vies with Germany to be European EV champion. With 31% EV sales in December we’re close to becoming the most successful EV market in Europe. This is an opportunity, not a threat.

Radiator upgrades have the biggest effect on heatpump COP, assuming flow temperature / WC curve is reduced accordingly
https://t.co/Xvks6b34Up Friends, here's a summary of the performance of my 5 kW Vaillant Arotherm plus heat pump over the last 176 weeks - 3.5 years. The effect of the radiator replacements is now very clearly visible.
