In this episode, Rhys & Stuart from Midsummer share their experiences working in the energy sector, from how they got started to how the industry is evolving as demand for renewable solutions grows. One key theme from the conversation 👇 Adoption is driven by confidence. And confidence comes from consistent, high-quality installations that perform as expected. When systems are installed well and deliver reliable results, it creates a stronger foundation for wider uptake, supported by real-world experiences rather than perception. 💡 👉 Watch the full episode to understand: Inside Midsummer: Careers & Heat Pump Industry Insights  youtube.com/watch?v=GdEOex… 🔗 Book a demo today calendly.com/d/cxm6-s42-4sj…  #HomeHeating #EnergyEfficiency #LowCarbonHeating #HeatPumpMyths #UKHeating

This isn’t about pushing people to borrow more. You don’t have to roll it into your mortgage. If you choose to upgrade your home, however you fund it, you can still access the benefit. That’s the difference. 👉 Watch the full episode to understand Empowering Green Living Through Innovative Mortgage Solutions youtube.com/watch?v=InENeo… 🔗 Book a demo today calendly.com/d/cxm6-s42-4sj…  #HomeHeating #EnergyEfficiency #LowCarbonHeating #HeatPumpMyths #UKHeating

Support isn’t just a “nice to have”. It’s what turns new installers into confident ones. Because once they’ve figured it out a few times… they don’t need you anymore. And that’s the goal. 💡 👉 Watch the full episode to understand Ideal Heating: The Logic Behind the Move to Heat Pumps youtube.com/watch?v=D78T-v… 🔗 Book a demo today calendly.com/d/cxm6-s42-4sj…  #HomeHeating #EnergyEfficiency #LowCarbonHeating #HeatPumpMyths #UKHeating

#DYK that in 2022, more heat pumps were shipped to BC (37,800) than natural gas furnaces (30,700)? This was a first for the province and shows us that the clean energy future is rolling in!

Imagine 125 barrels of oil wide circling the earth. That's not how much oil we use. That's just what EVs avoided burning last year.

For years, many in the industry have said the same thing: installation costs needed to come down. ⬇️ Whether through more competition, lower equipment prices, or both - change was inevitable if heat pumps were going to reach more homes. 👉 Watch the full episode: Octopus Unleashed: From Heat Pumps to Green Energy Innovations youtube.com/watch?v=33m_Yb… 🔗 Book a demo today calendly.com/d/cxm6-s42-4sj… #HomeHeating #EnergyEfficiency #LowCarbonHeating #HeatPumpMyths #UKHeating

Heat pumps are vastly more efficient than gas heating. With the right policies they can also be significantly cheaper from a total cost of ownership perspective. Our new paper on how to make heat pumps the cheapest option.👇 sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Visual @ember_energy

Everyone’s confident… until that first “wait, what do I do here?” moment. That’s where support actually matters. 💡 👉 Watch the full episode to understand Ideal Heating: The Logic Behind the Move to Heat Pumps youtube.com/watch?v=D78T-v… 🔗 Book a demo today calendly.com/d/cxm6-s42-4sj…  #HomeHeating #EnergyEfficiency #LowCarbonHeating #HeatPumpMyths #UKHeating

Think of it like this: If something is cheaper tomorrow… you wait. Energy works the same way. Smart tariffs simply shift your usage to when energy is abundant and cheap, without you having to think about it. 💡 👉 Watch the full episode to understand Energising Choices: Unveiling EnergyStatsUK youtube.com/watch?v=dUANL1… 🔗 Book a demo today calendly.com/d/cxm6-s42-4sj…  #HomeHeating #EnergyEfficiency #LowCarbonHeating #HeatPumpMyths #UKHeating

Everyone thinks going “fully electric” is one big, expensive leap. It’s not. It’s usually just normal people making small decisions over time… and slowly building a system that works for them. That’s how you go from a standard home to almost zero bills. 💡 👉 Watch the full episode to understand Heating Up Change: Navigating the Clean Heat Revolution youtube.com/watch?v=BGR6sv… 🔗 Book a demo today calendly.com/d/cxm6-s42-4sj…  #HomeHeating #EnergyEfficiency #LowCarbonHeating #HeatPumpMyths #UKHeating

Sometimes the biggest barrier to progress isn’t technology. It’s the process. For installers, things like MCS accreditation and paperwork can be a real headache. When the industry starts removing those barriers, more installers can focus on what they do best: installing. 💡 👉 Watch the full episode to understand Heating Crossroads: Installer Challenges in the Booming Heat Pump Era youtube.com/watch?v=DkKs-n… 🔗 Book a demo today calendly.com/d/cxm6-s42-4sj…  #HomeHeating #EnergyEfficiency #LowCarbonHeating #HeatPumpMyths #UKHeating

Raise your hand if you’d like to never "hop on a quick discovery call" with a potential lead ever again. 🙋‍♂️ CB Heating handles the messy stuff - the sales, the design, the logistics, so the pros can just focus on installation. Watch Clayton break down how they make the hardest part of the job (the admin) disappear.  👉 Watch the full episode: Heatwaves of Change: From One-Man Band to EDF Acquisition youtube.com/watch?v=NRToS9… 🔗 Book a demo today calendly.com/d/cxm6-s42-4sj… #HomeHeating #EnergyEfficiency #LowCarbonHeating #HeatPumpMyths #UKHeating

What does "Changing the World" actually cost? 🧐 In the energy sector, it’s about £7 million. But it’s not just about the cash; it’s about the freedom to deploy it. When you fund energy-as-a-service installations without a bank breathing down your neck, you create a safe trial for the future. And spoiler alert: People don't want to destroy the world. They just want a system that makes sense. 🌍 👉 Watch the full episode: Are Heat Plans The Solution to Delivering Low Carbon Heating?youtube.com/watch?v=nwl1iv… 🔗 Book a demo today calendly.com/d/cxm6-s42-4sj… #HomeHeating #EnergyEfficiency #LowCarbonHeating #HeatPumpMyths #UKHeating

Bringing down heat pump costs takes more than one solution. 📌 It’s about smarter design, faster installations, and simplifying the customer journey. From modular heat pump systems to pre-assembled components, Octopus is rethinking the entire process from purchase to installation. 💡 👉 Watch the full episode: Octopus Unleashed: From Heat Pumps to Green Energy Innovations youtube.com/watch?v=33m_Yb… 🔗 Book a demo today calendly.com/d/cxm6-s42-4sj… #HomeHeating #EnergyEfficiency #LowCarbonHeating #HeatPumpMyths #UKHeating

For many homeowners, the journey starts with a smart meter. 💡 Suddenly you can see your energy use in real time. An app on your phone shows exactly how much electricity you're using. That visibility changes how people think. Once you understand your usage, the next question becomes simple: Could I generate some of this energy myself? That’s why more homeowners are starting to look at smarter heating systems. 👉 Watch the full episode: Redefining the Heat Pump Narrative youtube.com/watch?v=xc0FXG… 🔗 Book a demo today calendly.com/d/cxm6-s42-4sj… #HomeHeating #EnergyEfficiency #LowCarbonHeating #HeatPumpMyths #UKHeating

To decarbonize homes, we need to install millions of heat pumps. In 2023, heat pumps outsold gas furnaces for the second year in a row. I spent the last month trying to understand why. Here's what I learned: distilled.earth/p/heat-pumps-o… 🧵

Heat pumps are, alongside energy efficiency measures, the critical technology for eliminating climate change causing emissions from heating across the world. We need over a billion of them by 2050 according to the historically uber conservative @IEA.
