	RE: Electricity price predictions By JamesPa, 15 hours ago Forum Electricity, Tariffs, Monitoring & Providers
	Not to mention the planning issues involved, assuming we are talking pumped hydro (or are they considering very large battery banks - at least as big a planning issue probably bigger.. Just to get an...
	RE: Electricity price predictions By Transparent, 15 hours ago Forum Electricity, Tariffs, Monitoring & Providers
	The figures above already allow for that. Peak demand in the middle of winter is around 35GW.NESO wants 70GW of 'available generation/storage' in order to meet that demand. Yes, that can obtained from...
	RE: Heat Pumps Without Grants: Would You Have Installed One & Will You Now? By Temperature_Gradient, 16 hours ago Forum Government Schemes, Regulations, Planning & Organisations
	I might install one without the grant, but it would either be a DIY project or an economical install where I have more control over what is being provided, to better fit with the house, minimise the d...

	We would not have installed a HP without the BUS. We had a 22+ year gas boiler beyond economic repair if/when it failed so needed to do something. A replacement would have cost up to £3k with minimal ...

	RE: Renewables & Heat Pumps in the News By Bash, 17 hours ago Forum Well & Truly Off The Grid
	I'm slightly nervous of getting out HP installed, even though we should still get the grant as our BUS voucher has been issued, even though I'm convinced the HP will be great. My fear is that installe...
	RE: Heat Pumps Without Grants: Would You Have Installed One & Will You Now? By WantToBeGreen, 17 hours ago Forum Government Schemes, Regulations, Planning & Organisations
	I am still at the just looking (and seeking good advice) stage but very unlikely to spend £10 -20k without some help. Existing gas boiler is doing fine but switching feels the right thing to do IF I ...
	RE: UFH downstairs and radiators upstairs balancing question By JamesPa, 18 hours ago Forum Thermostats, Volumisers, Buffer Tanks, TRVs, Pumps, Piping, Valves, Radiators & Controls
	I wonder what the logic of this was, that will be the cooler of the two whereas I would have thought you want the rad circuit on the warmer. Never mind it shouldn't matter that much, how is the balanc...
	RE: Renewables & Heat Pumps in the News By JamesPa, 18 hours ago Forum Well & Truly Off The Grid
	@lucia Again I agree with much of what you say and in particular your last sentence. Furthermore I also think that there is a very strong economic argument for decarbonisation. If you are dependent...
	RE: Heat Pumps Without Grants: Would You Have Installed One & Will You Now? By Judith, 19 hours ago Forum Government Schemes, Regulations, Planning & Organisations
	Quite honestly I don’t know. We’re very pleased with our system, and are gas free, so we save money each year. But the payback time (at current prices) is about 10years. Without the grant the payback ...
