It must be awful being the IT an Customer Service directors @bt_uk I am now over 7 hours on the phone in the last 3 months to this moribund and feckless organisation. It all started with Direct Debit problems and now I want to move home. It's just impossible to be a customer!!!!

Naughty. 🧐 Apples and pears. Batteries are 100% recyclable. New chemistry means less metals. 87% of all cobalt used to de-sulphur petrol and diesel. As you were. @MerrynSW @ournetenergy

I mean, just look at it.🙄 Imagine the cost and grief putting it near your house. Then the energy losses as the heat is pumped #Netzero electricity from a #community #smartgrid feeding @SunampLtd heat batteries through the existing electric cables. Simple, repeatable and cheap.😎
Heat pumps in flats are tricky. Works if you're ground floor with a garden, hard if you only have a balcony (but can be done). Most likely your block will join a heat network, with a large heat pump supplying the block or multiple blocks, like this one! bbc.co.uk/news/business-6532…
