Octopus Energy has become the biggest household energy supplier with 23.7% of the market, less than a decade after it was established.

Dan Morris of Cornwall Insight: "This is quite honestly the biggest development in the domestic retail energy market since it opened."

Parish notice: am looking for a couple of people (possibly grad students but either way with pol science or history background) to help me out with some research for a project I’m working on. Will pay for the time. DM if interested or send on to someone if you think would fit the bill.

It's been snowing in the UK and the road gritters are out in force, begging the question:
Have you ever wondered where that grit actually COMES from?
The answer is more magical, beautiful and fascinating than you probably realised.

🌡 The #decarbonisation of #heat is an overlooked part of the #netzero transition. The Government is yet to set out its stall on its plans in this area, including the #WarmHomesPlan but where are we now? And what more could we do? 🧵

[Simon Evans @DrSimEvans]

"Clean power by 2030" is "achievable…without increasing costs" & would insulate the UK from "volatile intl gas prices", says NESO

But we'll need to 2x onshore wind, 3x offshore wind & solar + massively ramp up flex & storage to get there

A few observations…🧵
