Is the boiler industry gas lighting you? Accused of “campaigns of misinformation” & “price gouging” by Ministers lobbying that could “hurt” customers CitizensAdvice Do consumers need to think twice before trusting what the industry says? Let’s have a look at the evidence..🧵

The primary energy fallacy: Critics of the energy transition often point to primary energy to demonstrate that the transition is going to be impossible. But most consumed primary energy is lost after conversion. The problem to solve is a lot smaller than primary energy

The The Telegraph keeps spreading misinformation about heat pumps this time in an article by Robert Taylor. Many of his claims are not supported by evidence as I set out in great detail in this Carbon Brief long read: carbonbrief.org/factcheck-18-m…

Painful dose of reality from National Grid's Future Energy Scenarios document this year. Heat pump installations happening slower than their previous worst case trajectory, causing them to lower expectations

Denmark is a global energy transition trailblazer. Wind and solar now provide more than 2/3 of Denmark's electricity generation. In 2000 it was just 12%. Fossil fuels used to provide 84% in 2000. In 2023 it was just 12%. @EmberClimate

Industrial electrification is the main lever to decarbonise industrial process heat. But how can policy and regulation accelerate it? My recent presentation given at a gj RAP webinar on industrial decarbonisation.

"Achieving Net Zero with Heat Pumps" is a short video from Global Systems Institute University of Exeter which talks about the potential for a positive tipping point towards the wider adoption of heat pumps. youtu.be/or1iqpPsZuo

One pushback against heat pumps in the UK is that they don't work well in cold countries. Contrary to this, some of the Nordic countries have amongst the highest uptake of the technologies. Jan Rosenow's guest blog for Carbon Brief explores this success: tinyurl.com/mt8jj5vy

Did you know that the countries with the most heat pumps installed are also in some of the coldest climates? Find out more in our article in Nature Energy 👇 nature.com/articles/s4156…

Policy@Exeter put together a case study of the work we did on the SHIFFT Project Sustainable Heating and Technology to apply a co-creation methodology to developing city low carbon heating strategies. You can read it at tinyurl.com/y7brfjmp

Great news! University of Exeter awarded £8.6 million for new low carbon heating systems to reduce its fossil fuel use. The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero funding, from the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme, will replace 29 gas boilers across 8 buildings at Exeter’s Streatham and St Luke’s campuses.

Monthly install rates for heat pumps have ramped up pretty consistently over the last year, but at 5,143/month are still only at about 10% of what the UK needs to hit 2028 target of 600k installs/year. See Ambient's report for this & lots more HP data at tinyurl.com/2s3wbme9
