Imagine this - 3 FREE hours of solar energy for EVERY household across the country ☀️ In #Australia, it’s becoming a reality in 2026. Take a look at how it works… 🧵

Got one of these things in the summer. So far, the house is much more toasty, and with the right tariff the bill is down 40%. More reports as we have them.
Heat pumps are the most efficiency heating technology ever invented.
That's because they harvest, compress and transport pre-existing heat from the air, the ground or the water.
Compared to a gas boiler heat pumps deliver ~4x more heat for each unit of energy inout.

There's an army of people out there telling us change is impossible.
Only that it is not.
10 years ago electric vehicles plaid almost no role in global car sales.
Today one in five cars sold worldwide is electric.

Absolute marmalade-dropper, this. Well worth a read.
My latest: Move over bat tunnel, here’s the wild story of how HS2 were forced to build a multi-million pound bridge for a road that… doesn’t actually exist.
How HS2 built a bridge to nowhere
A state-of-the-art road bridge has been built deep in the heart of rural Buckinghamshire. Designed to carry traffic over the HS2 railway, there's just one tiny problem - there's no actual road.

This is so deeply unserious. Throughout the entire 14 years of the Conservative government oil and gas licenses were routinely issued and for much of the period there was a policy of maximising extraction.
Production still fell, the economy flatlined, and energy security got worse.

British NIMBYism is truly a sight to behold.

It says something that, even though he lived to 97, hearing Tom Lehrer has gone makes me think 'much, much too young'. One of the greatest satirists of all time. Here's a niche one, and one of my faves.
