This is incredible. From Jamie Lane where AirBnBs are fully booked next week.

Saddening to read about the collapse of Van Hool today. Martijn Gilbert and I visited in 2017 with Scania UK on a tour looking for "the next big thing" for bus design. We presented some radical ideas and didn't realise a concept, but their thinking was probably the most open we saw.

Great to visit the Derbyshire CC Middleton Top steam engine today. Running on compressed air, enough whirling machinery in proximity to trigger cries of "I'm scared" from both my kids. Needs a better barrier on the exit door though. Rail pics taken from a place of safety 😆

Popped to M&S this morning. I know they don’t get shopped so hard, but, oh my, the standards

It's cracking the flags outdoors, but where am I today?

That's clever.

Lovely touch from Alexander Dennis on their production line today. Not necessary, not public, just right. #dday #lestweforget

We made it! I completed in the London to Geneva EV Rally 2024 rally, in probably the least suitable car here, ~100 motorway miles range and fairly slow 'rapid' charging. Despite that, biggest obstacle was just apps to pay for chargers. Infrastructure very plentiful in France 👍

How will the public understand our bus service model, now and in the future, if BBC News (UK) FedericaBedendo aren't clear on what we currently have? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/… For the vast majority of UK services there's no contract with authorities (or anybody else), it's a retail business.

Hey Sheffield City Council - is this your site, a mistake, or a scam to take £14 off me to drive a private electric car into the city?

Good to find 22kW "hydroelectric charging" available Masson Mills from Derwent Hydro this evening. They even integrate with Octopus Electroverse ⚡️ too - but doesn't appear on their map 🙁

Welding Stig's junior apprentice has passed her selection assessment after school 🥰

When I was born, we could just dig up energy, communities thrived on it and 75% of our elec was from coal. Today is the end, and start, of an era. Solar, batteries, wind, EVs - and new tech we've even not thought of yet - will dominate the next hundred years.

Amazing trend for UK electricity carbon intensity, c/o BusinessGreen - from 500g CO2 per kWh to 150g, in ten years. And the Y-scale isn't even linear. Tonight it's windy so I'll charge up my car for just £1.50 - green power is cheap power.

Okay, hear me out… We crowdfund for Real Times Trains to buy up the whole advertising screen at Euston, and then project train times and platforms on it before the station announces them. Everybody wins!

A day out for an engineering consultant - a tray of tools (inc hammer obvs), an EV charging cable, a hi-vis and a shirt in the car.

Tomorrow it's cheaper to heat your home with electricity than gas, even without a battery or heat pump. As we grow our renewables, we'll have greater capability but more cheaper, greener electricity 🌲🌍

Intermittent but green, clean power is cheap power. Storage is our next big hurdle.

Five career tips for mechanical engineers: 1) If it sounds too good to be true, 98% of the time, it is, thousands of clever people spent their lives researching how things are now, incrementally. Success is almost entirely by small steps, and not whacky tricks. 2) We are all

Beautiful.
