Mick Wall, founder of Energy Stats UK, turned curiosity about his bills into a mission to help others understand energy. His story proves people don’t retrofit for carbon targets – they do it when it saves money, feels rewarding, and makes life better. www.refurbandretrofit.com/energy-stats...

The first people in the UK who owned a heat pump? The Telegraph hasn’t got its facts right once again. The first heat pump in the UK was installed in Norwich in 1945 by John Sumner. finn-geotherm.co.uk/the-history-...

I'm loving the Jaguar Cars rebrand, shift to all-EV and new concept car. IMO they are doing everything we all need to move forward to a net zero society; they've stirred debate, set a standard and made it relevant. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... 1/2

The carmaker's new look is praised as "exciting" but others say it should "go back to the drawing board"

Looking forward to this - I’ll be there Saturday. Best bit is hearing “you’re exactly what we’ve been looking for!” from people trying to make sense of #retrofit #energyefficiency, so do help us get the word out 🙏

I’ve spent 15yrs+ despairing there’s no single, national service to help homeowners with #energyefficiency. Not just top tips or supplier lists, but proper support through to completed installation. So pretty pleased we’ve created one @retrofitruss.bsky.social @chris-carus.bsky.social
