It must be awful being the IT an Customer Service directors @bt_uk I am now over 7 hours on the phone in the last 3 months to this moribund and feckless organisation. It all started with Direct Debit problems and now I want to move home. It's just impossible to be a customer!!!!

Naughty. 🧐 Apples and pears. Batteries are 100% recyclable. New chemistry means less metals. 87% of all cobalt used to de-sulphur petrol and diesel. As you were. @MerrynSW @ournetenergy
Green campaigners worried that metals needed for the energy transition they insist on accelerating aren’t green. Now what?

I mean, just look at it.🙄 Imagine the cost and grief putting it near your house. Then the energy losses as the heat is pumped #Netzero electricity from a #community #smartgrid feeding @SunampLtd heat batteries through the existing electric cables. Simple, repeatable and cheap.😎
Heat pumps in flats are tricky. Works if you're ground floor with a garden, hard if you only have a balcony (but can be done). Most likely your block will join a heat network, with a large heat pump supplying the block or multiple blocks, like this one! bbc.co.uk/news/business-6532…

Titanium! Their bollocks. They're made of titanium.😎
And here's why @PeccoBagnaia had to give the position back to @jackmilleraus ⚠️ #SpanishGP 🇪🇸

This is both exciting for the the advance of clean tech and sobering if you're in the UK There is an international clean tech race that has kicked off and UK is nowhere to be seen bbc.co.uk/news/business-6539… youtube.com/watch?v=7OBFMCAQ…

#hydrogen needs a lot of electricity to electrolyse water or crack #gas and to, (deep breath] capture it, store it, compress it, liquify it, store it, transport it, store it, pump it, store it, pump it, & burn it. Use the ‘lecy to heat, we’ve all got it in houses already🤷🏼‍♂️

If your community had a smart grid……
Just thought I’d mention that UK electricity is currently in negative pricing at -£48.59 per MWh. Never in time with fossil fuels would you see that!!! Get plugged in folks 👍🏻

⁦@NicholasHellen⁩ It’s 30 minutes and £30 ⁦@Edinburgh_CC⁩. Overstay charges are ok but I’m a wheelchair user relying on public chargers. Been an #EV driver for 8 years but this is making it very tricky. Please cover charger suitability for #disabled , it’s horrendous.
