Batteries are often described as resource-intensive. With a 95% proven recycling rate and a 10yr life, over 50% of battery minerals mined today will still be in use in *130 years*. Add 5% performance improvement per cycle, and they will be delivering services *forever*. Boom! 1/2

Regulatory approval for this subscription solar UK startup could mean more are to come tcrn.ch/3T6d2hI by @mikebutcher

Big news: we’ve raised £5.4m in funding from @norrsken_org, @PlugandPlayTC and angel investors! We’re also over the moon to launch Sunsave Plus: the UK’s first solar subscription service ☀️ news.sky.com/story/angel-in…

☀️ NEW: The quiet solar revolution Solar panels are being installed on homes at the fastest rate in 8 years Yet rather than a burst of environmentalism, the truth is that better batteries - and soaring energy prices - make it worthwhile again @thetimes thetimes.co.uk/article/d7e405…

@techpoodle Take a look at sunsave.energy or email me on alick@sunsave.energy We install nationally and have good availability for May. Looking forward to speaking!

So it looks like I am on the hunt for a new solar installer for the next phase of our setup. I spoke to our existing installer about a quote for it and he told me he's moving on to do other stuff now and not taking on and new install work 😭

@kellowayj1 Do you mind sharing the manufacturer of the kit? The GUI looks interesting

@QuietGeekingOut @sarah_go_green @sunsave_uk @sarah_go_green at sunsave.energy we are averaging ~3-5 weeks from initial enquiry to install. If you do signup/"calculate your savings" on our site, DM me and I'll ensure we get you a design out ASAP

@sarah_go_green My brother works for this startup if you want to see what they say: @sunsave_uk

So i am going to try again getting a quote for solar and battery storage. Although it might be a case of enquiring and getting no reply as they all seem so busy. I think last guy didn’t want the hassle of a steep roof from what you guys said. Any recommendations?

@sarah_go_green Take a look at @sunsave_uk

@jamesdmcfadden Hi I’m building a new startup which offers financing for PV+storage so it costs homeowners £0 on day one. Would be interested to know your thoughts? Would you look at this approach?

@swanseadan Who are you using for you battery + PV and any thoughts on manufacturers/brands?

@emilygosden Time for a massive shift to renewables. I’m getting a large PV and battery install tomorrow.

UK gas prices going crazy 😱 Spiked more than 50% to hit as high as 463.8p per therm earlier this morning, within a whisker of the 470p all-time record seen in intra-day trading before Christmas Hugely volatile but still up about 20% at about 350p now. This time last year? 39p
