At this Thursday's meetup, @TrystanLea will be giving us an intro to his new Household Energy Ledger tool, modelling the stacking co-benefits of multiple domestic LCTs.
All welcome.

I just invested in GMCR's share issue to put solar arrays on 3 more schools and a leisure centre in #GreaterManchester. The share offer is only open for 3 more days, so be sure to check it out.

Tomorrow 6pm: We'll be discussing #heatpump usage advice for non-enthusiast users, particularly those new to low temperature systems or those in rented accomodation. @TrystanLea @Damon_BPHR

A grotesque example of how the energy system screws consumers
Worse, our bureaucratic overlords eviscerated the Demand Flexibility Service which could have reduced this. Even the rump service paid consumers 5 times less per kWh than these gas giants

Tonight: We have an open session
- @EarthOrgUK will be talking about his experience of integrating a heat battery with solar diversion
- Jonathan will update us on his ESP32 based heating controller.
- Short update on PowerShaper
All welcome.

Dear @ofgem & @neso_energy a 90% reduction in DFS payments will kill the nascent Flex market, just when consumers were beginning to constructively engage with the energy system. It is vital to demonstrate consumer benefit from the energy transition. #SaveTheDFS
Dear @JoshFG, We've recently moved to the valley, but are finding life hard as we can't get internet via any provider. We're not rural but live on a social housing estate.
There's no fibre or 4G and no space on the exchange for a phone connection. Any ideas? @WeAreOpenreach

We've updated the default view on heatpumpmonitor.org/ to now show 365 days to give visitors a better understanding of annual performance, we've added buttons to quickly toggle between 7 day, 30 day and 90 days views
How well are #heatpumps performing in the UK? Join next month's session featuring Colin Meek of @rbmpartners, presenting his latest work on domestic in-situ performance based on the latest Ofgem Data (2017–2022).

HeatpumpMonitor.org update: Improved system running cost page now allows comparison of 3 different tariff options: 1) price cap, 2) half hourly Octopus Agile (automatically calculated for each system) 3) A user entered unit rate. See heatpumpmonitor.org/#mode=co…
REMINDER: Tonight's session at 6pm! Metered Energy Saving methodologies for evaluating success in UK #retrofit, with Connor Galbraith of @EnergySysCat - all welome!

Excited for this week's meetup, where we'll be talking Metered Energy Savings with Connor Galbraith of @EnergySysCat meetup.com/Eco-Home-Lab-Manc…
Join us TONIGHT 6pm to explore how we might use CO2 data to better understand ventilation levels in occupied buildings. With @jess_few of @UCL_Energy & @TrystanLea of @Openenergymon. All welcome! meetup.com/eco-home-lab-manc…
Excited to see the release of @LFE_Foundation OpenEEmeter 4.0! Really significant step forward led by @Recurve_Energy, looking foward to the webinar and appreciate the shout out for @CarbonCoop & @JamesFenna 🙂

Can we use C02 sensors to quantify ventilation rates in occupied domestic properties? Come along to our next meetup with @jess_few & @TrystanLea to find out! This is a live area of research so there'll be plenty of opportunity for discussion. All welcome

Interested to hear what CO2 sensors people are using and recommend?
We've just installed a number of @airgradienthq Pro & ONE kits in retrofit properties - which include the SenseAir S8.
