The world is a long way from ‘Hydrogen Ready’, no doubt it should be the future but there are a lot of hurdles to overcome

Hydrogen ready boilers are a pure con, it simply does not make sense when there is a readily available alternative that is mature technology and is four times more efficient in turning electrical energy into heat.

4kW peak of solar PV since 2011; EV and a 1930s house which has been partially renovated to improve its efficiency. 7kW Vaillant heat pump.

Oh my, this looks like bureaucracy at its finest!

Does that imply that the reason why both my PV inverters and heat pump have a 8 pin connector with extremely basic dry contact "energy management" commands is...
