We shouldn't have to take the heat for heating our homes🌡️
In the EU, the main use of energy by households is for heating homes, and the hotter our homes are, the higher our bills become.
We can drastically reduce this energy demand by making our homes more energy efficient 🔋
Housing Solutions Platform retweeted
We all hope that 2023 will be a peaceful & healthy year.
Reshaping #housing systems to make them more #equality-driven, environmentally #sustainable & #resilient has become a moral imperative.
What's your take?

Interesting @OECD report on access to 🏠 4 🇺🇦 refugees
Stresses need 2 work on long-term 🏠 solutions & minimise accommodation with private hosts + xpresses concern ab wider impact on 🏠 affordability

Essex new 🏠 1:
Efficiency + Heat Pump + PV + battery and smart management = “zero bills”. For £10k more.
Essex new 🏠 2:
Gas boiler, no PV anywhere, charging EVs through kitchen window. Where a 3 bed is half a million. Don’t tell me we can’t afford it.
It costs less than £10k extra to build a “zero bills” home. Thanks to a heat pump, solar, battery and smart optimisation from @OctopusEnergy, these @ilkehomes houses are not some pipedream. They’re here now. Electrification is magic
Housing Solutions Platform retweeted
With the Croí Cónaithe (Towns) Fund a grant, up to €30k will be available for the refurbishment of #vacanthomes for occupation as a principal private residence. A top up grant of €20k is available where the property is confirmed as derelict #HousingForAll #CroiConaithe
