HG Wells is alleged to have remarked "Every time I see an adult on a bicycle, I no longer despair for the future of the human race”. You could see this shocking chart as an index of civilisation. A country which gets this issue so badly wrong is likely to fail in many other ways.

Looking at your graph and ignoring the towel rails (notably poor emitters), you seem to use heating of ~ 150kWh over a floor area of ?100m2 so 1.5kWh/(m2.a), way below the Passivhaus criterion of 15. What’s the secret?

Just updated energy demand figures for our electric & heatpumpified passivhaus home. Cooling demand crept up during the summer heatwaves, but is still relatively low compared with hot water generation demand. And zero energy bills thanks to a combination of PV system and battery storage.

Graph showing weekly energy demand for hot water generation and air to air mini split unit for space cooling or heating, over a period of 12 months. Hot water generation demand much bigger overall.

It's been 4 years since the 2022 energy crisis. The UK spent £44bn supporting energy bills over that winter. We've had 4 years to prepare for the next one, to invest in a robust energy advice network, to build our capacity to retrofit homes. But we are woefully unprepared for the 2026 energy crisis.
