@GreenJennyJones Are you trying to say bicycle helmets aren’t much use. That is not helpful.

[Dorking Solar Group @DorkingSolarGp]

With the CoP of air source heat pumps about x3 (units of heat per units of elec). And electricity to gas tariffs about x4. No wonder heat pump take up is poor. // Government green heating scheme off to slow start https://t.co/6VN7jdJxMt @ofgem @beisgovuk must address this issue!

Here is UK electricity generation over last 10yrs (yr average generation power). Wind (green), coal (red), gas (amber), nuclear (blue), solar (yellow). A mix of good news & not so good. But an amazing change in 10yrs. 8yrs til 2030 for #energy #transition #EnergyCrisis

Circular Dorking - Looking Forward to seeing you. - https://t.co/Fh78si5Uwc

Great to see an 11 bay charging facility being installed at @denbiesvineyard #Dorking #Surrey #UK Not only that but @Tesla are expanding their network so that non-Tesla EV owners can use it. Makes a lot of sense!

[Dorking Solar Group @DorkingSolarGp]

SolarPV electricity for your home or business is no-brainer nowadays. It’s an investment grade opportunity. See UKSolarPowerPanel, a local Dorking company. For those on low income new grants are available too: https://t.co/IP1LKpIVM3

[Dorking Climate Emergency @DorkingClimate]

Today UK electricity is being generated using 48% natural gas. 1% from coal. But read this below to understand that the leaking methane from wells makes natural gas as bad as coal. UK dash for gas was not the ‘green’ solution it was dressed up to be! #NaturalGas

Here is an interesting read about financing a green future: https://t.co/dFDsxXpSC5. Both challenging and optimistic.

When will UK Government (and its advisors) understand that a NegaWatt is so much better value than a MegaWatt. Reason for missing this: big money, profit opportunity, taxation opportunity and vested interests. https://t.co/kktSF2o558

[Dorking Solar Group @DorkingSolarGp]

The solar duck curve. This makes interesting reading. How we have to change our thinking about electricity demand during the day. Problems make Opportunities. https://t.co/yP8XypVj40

[Dorking Climate Emergency @DorkingClimate]

UK can become substantially energy self sufficient. We must! Better for UK economy, planet, community, resilience. We don’t want to rely upon other countries/global markets: https://t.co/CjDoIv7rkL. Must also do substantial building insulation - no brainer!! @10DowningStreet

[Dorking Solar Group @DorkingSolarGp]

If you have spare capital sitting in the bank- now is the time to think about SolarPV, solar thermal hot water, triple glazing, wall/floor insulation, battery energy storage, DIY insulation, etc. The economics is making a lot of sense. = Resilience for a world in turmoil.
