	RE: Electricity price predictions By Toodles, 2 weeks ago Forum Electricity, Tariffs, Monitoring & Providers
	@scalextrix And from today’s news, doing the wrong thing can be bad politics too! (If we don’t snaffle the fossil fuels, someone else will nick them from our seas!) Regrets, Toodles.

	My theory; The world is complicated and that makes it scary to some people. Give them a simple answer, and even though it's wrong, won't solve the problem completely or even partially, so long as it ...
	RE: is a home battery without an EV worth it? By AdamK, 2 weeks ago Forum Energy Storage
	@downfield unfortunately due to a low income I only look at roi. When I had solar installed back in 2014 the FIT was one of the main drivers. I consider batteries with some scepticism due to them rely...

	... easier still is to find a scapegoat and blame all woes on them/that. You don't even have to criticise, just parrot peoples concerns and then say you will fix it by dealing with [ insert a scapego...
	RE: Electricity price predictions By Old_Scientist, 2 weeks ago Forum Electricity, Tariffs, Monitoring & Providers
	Exactly this! It's far easier to throw mud than to offer solutions, or even engage in constructive debate. Even the Tories are now leaning in the opposite direction of net zero, as their recent pollin...
	RE: How Do I Know When the Hot Water Has Run Out? By GrahamF, 2 weeks ago Forum Domestic Hot Water & Cylinders

	RE: Electricity price predictions By Scalextrix, 2 weeks ago Forum Electricity, Tariffs, Monitoring & Providers
	I believe part of the issue is the longer term energy markets where producers can bid to supply. For some gas generators they can actually afford to bid below market rate (even negative), to ensure t...
	RE: The good, the bad and the not that great – my heat pump installation By cathodeRay, 2 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	Sorry to resurrect this thread, but it is sort of relevant so on balance putting this here. But how do you actually adjust the pressure? I have exactly the same PRV and following a burst water main an...
	RE: Electricity price predictions By JamesPa, 2 weeks ago Forum Electricity, Tariffs, Monitoring & Providers
	The world certainly, we should have started 30+ years ago. Unfortunately the oil industry and other vested interests hid the evidence and then fillybustered and, as a direct result, we will all pay m...
	RE: Electricity price predictions By TechnoGeek, 2 weeks ago Forum Electricity, Tariffs, Monitoring & Providers
	@scalextrix Depends on your personal circumstances, if you have 20 years to wait for a return on your investment you may well be very correct. In my case I will probably be dead by then so I need a r...
