🕵️ Ever wondered what goes on under the hood of our generative AI model? ⚡Our model, Faraday, generates synthetic, half-hourly, household-level smart meter data that helps researchers and policymakers understand electricity demand - without compromising consumer privacy.

Using @OctopusEnergyUS household data, we found: 1️⃣ An increase in household electricity consumption that was notable, but not unseasonable 2️⃣ Smaller and shorter-lived impacts vs. Winter Storm Uri in 2021 3️⃣ Flexibility, including pre-heating, could help manage peak system stress

🥶 How does household electricity demand respond to extreme winter temperatures? 🌨️ In our latest piece, we analysed how electricity use in Texas responded during Winter Storm Fern in January 2026 — and what that tells us about managing winter stress in ERCOT.

💡 Time to rethink building performance. 📣 UK gov has confirmed that reformed Energy Performance Certificates will include a new smart metric to capture microgeneration and flexibility. 💪 Great to see following our campaign with @EnergySysCat and our cross-industry coalition.

🇬🇧 The Warm Homes Plan is a welcome step towards smart, low-carbon tech playing a central role in home upgrades. ⚡🏠 As empirical backing for that shift, our research shows that heat pumps cut carbon ~70%, while solar + batteries can slash bills for fuel-poor households (even below zero in summer).

NEW ANALYSIS: Electric vehicles are entering the mid-transition space starting to replace ICE vehicles. Shifts like this can happen faster than expected: in the early 20th-century US, horses and mules virtually vanished from roads in under 30 years. cdn.sanity.io/files/lrxd4jqj…
