My latest for @BloombergNEF: The Next Half-Trillion-Dollar Market - Electrification of Heat. Following on the heels of renewables and electric vehicles, it's heat pumps and industrial heating where the really big numbers are going to be invested next.

"We’re moving forward together to address the holistic transition to cleaner buildings.” - @RockyMtnInst's @llouisprescott on California's impending vote to end the sale of polluting furnaces and water heaters by 2030. @KPBSErik https://t.co/rEQ9XOF0AA @SPUR_Urbanist@SierraClub
@heatpolicyrich ‘ultimately’ is quite close to reality. There are many years of work needed to produce truly green hydrogen at a scale and distributed at a price anybody might want to pay for a heating fuel and many better more more urgent uses for hydrogen.
I have just listened to the #BBC4 about #SylviaAnderson the creative force behind #Thunderbirds and all the most memorable puppet series from my youth. Needs correcting I never knew this woman was so significant. Put this right #ITV Long live Lady Penelope

@MarkSiddallRIBA@borpin True but you need the coolest possible incoming air, mine is brought in below the suspended slab in contact with the ground and works well
Two things I want to shoot into the 🌞 today (apart from the usual):
1. Ppl defending their indefensible carbon-intensive lifestyles as "convenient" or "inevitable" or "comfortable." It's like listening to alcoholics or heroin addicts, in many ways. Listen up. Perhaps ...
