	RE: Replacing Storage Heaters with a Heat Pump in a Stone Cottage By cathodeRay, 2 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	It's a bête noire of mine, the widespread modern use of the word. I certainly wasn't having a go at you. When I was still in shorts, models were things made by Airfix that you bought in toy shops. The...
	RE: battery storage without solar By JamesPa, 2 weeks ago Forum Energy Storage
	Is it actually a legal way of connecting with the usual interpretation of 'fused spur'. My understanding is that generators, with the sole exception of the carve out for plug in solar, must be on a se...
	RE: battery storage without solar By Transparent, 2 weeks ago Forum Energy Storage
	Let me try an answer at a lower technical level... The "fused spur" you've heard about is a method of having an electrician install a small portable battery for you. Typically this option is consider...
	RE: Replacing Storage Heaters with a Heat Pump in a Stone Cottage By JamesPa, 2 weeks ago Forum Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)
	Noted. What do you have. Even annual usage is better than nothing!

	We were with Octopus in our old house and it was faultless. This was in the days before smart metering and we had a fixed price tariff. We moved to our current house four years ago (again with Octopu...
	RE: battery storage without solar By mrkfm, 2 weeks ago Forum Energy Storage
	@transparent most of that went way over my ahead im afraid! TBH, the calculated savings on the ecoflow website for their Stream 5000 (without solar) were about 8 years at least which made me think it...
	RE: battery storage without solar By Transparent, 2 weeks ago Forum Energy Storage
	Good questions @mrkfm Domestic battery storage is definitely worthwhile investigating now. No, it's not possible to calculate your Return on Investment (RoI) with any degree of accuracy because that d...
	RE: battery storage without solar By JamesPa, 2 weeks ago Forum Energy Storage
	@mrkfm It's definitely an option worth considering even without solar, particularly if you have a heat pump (and thus a medium constant load for 6 months of the year). However current install prices...
	battery storage without solar By mrkfm, 2 weeks ago Forum Energy Storage
	Hi. Wondering if someone can offer some basic advice on this subject to a novice. I've been reading up about battery storage and seen videos etc where this is being promoted as an option withou...
