Just to let everyone know we had to bring online 5 coal powered sets to meet demand and we have no means in the uk to provide the fuel for them , just because of a bit of snow , but don’t worry the grid is fine EV Nick and Neil Bridgeman

An astonishing piece of Youtube content. 2hrs of gritty real-world drama, that pulls no punches. Drugs? Terror plots? Gangsters? No, the violent world of domestic electrical installations & how power gets to people. Shocking stuff from David Savery Electrical Services youtu.be/d939Io0Flp0

⁦eBay UK⁩ says that the parts bought from its 81 certified sellers are A OK, they don’t mention there other sellers, the chopshops, thieves and scammers! ebayinc.com/stories/press-…

If you're a solar installer are you seeing panel prices falling? Data from the FT shows dramatic falls in spot prices across all panel efficiency levels, with low efficiency panels almost halving in price since January 2023.

I thought a big part of heat pump efficiency was that they were low temp not high. BetaTalk - Renewable Heating Podcast Greg claims his new pump will run at 75C. Is this a good thing for efficiency? (Noting reduced retrofit costs)

More evidence of stock imbalances with PV as inventory continues to grow and discounts deepen. High efficiency panel prices are down 30% since January.

Big shift from MCS on solar installations. Is this good for customers?? " The mandatory requirement for insurance-backed guarantees (IBGs) will be eliminated" energylivenews.com/2023/10/06/mcs…

Looking forward to this from Mark Allison and Sam from Oval.

Strange how US sanctions never seem to apply in sectors where US companies enjoy large market share (thanks to Chinese manufacturing)- see Apple, Levis, New Balance etc ( bbc.com/news/articles/…

I have been in France for a while now and it made me realise just how frustrating UK electrics can be! 😡 We will take a look at a French consumer unit and what are the main differences and similarities between one in the UK and one in France. ⚡️ Link - youtu.be/OifExkvOM8U
