Looks like Octopus are taking new customers again. If anyone's looking to switch, here's my referral that gives us both £50 - https://t.co/igpz2oPvN3 - they've been really good to me so far.

@sarah_go_green @OctopusEnergy Is a heatpump next on the list? They make energy even more exciting!

@theolodian Everyone I know in Coventry has a heatpump already 😜

100 years ago tomorrow.

New York Times, November 23, 1924: The motor car is “a far more destructive piece of mechanism than the machine gun. The reckless motorist deals more death than the artilleryman. … Immediate action [must] halt the homicidal orgy of the automobile.”

[Jo Alsop, Warmur @theheatinghub]

Sorry to say energy price is going up by 1.2%, to £1,738 for the avg home from Jan

Unpleasant news that exemplifies the need to ramp up renewable electricity generation, accelerate heat pump adoption & improve boiler efficiency to ensure a long term downward trend

Some asking me "isn't it illegal for places not to accept cash?". No it isn't. This is a common confusion because of a mis-undertanding over what 'legal tender' means.

Legal tender simply means what can't be refused as payment in a court ordered debt. It doesn't impact day-to-day life.

There are no rules on what payments type firms have to accept as long as they are not discriminating.

We used X-rays to look inside a pumpkin for Halloween! It's freaky but interesting

The @MailOnline and @Telegraph recently ran stories about an electric bin lorry fire

This was despite the fact that the fire was caused by some flammable waste...

...and had nothing to do with the vehicle's electric drive train

A case study in EV misinformation (a thread)

@theolodian @Protons4B @_heatgeek There's a handful listed on HPM
