Extraordinary set of charts in the FT today. Twelve years of Tory misrule has left us sicker and poorer than our peers. Utterly disastrous.

The #A30 has temporarily closed eastbound between #A389 near #Bodmin and A395 (#PipersPool) due to a vehicle fire.
Fire services are working on scene.

.@BBCr4today we *do not* have the most expensive electricity in Europe, it's actually about average #r4today. Left is DESNZ, right is eurostat.
PLEASE start speaking truth to power and challenge any guest who says this! @bbcnickrobinson @amolrajan @BBCSimonJack @DharshiniDavid

For @JustinOnWeb (and the whole @BBCr4today team); Britain does NOT have expensive energy compared to Europe. The UK is about average. Data for manufacturers from DESNZ and eurostat. #r4today

@RobertLindsay More people who give a damn about the world use blue sky than X now 🤷♀️

@horton_official This is your semi-regular beg for you to come to blue sky because quite frankly more people interested in the environment use it than X now. By only posting here you're isolating yourself.
English
I am staying on X for now BTW as I find it useful still, and I like talking to all of you! Also want to keep posting accurate climate coverage & not cede the platform to deniers. (In context of the Guardian's official social media accounts no longer posting here)

@seb_kennedy Seb, do you fancy opening a blue sky account? I think quite a few people (myself included) no longer use X

I've been digging into EU gas market data for an answer to a burning question: which TTF futures contracts do hedge funds hold?
Regulators know this but don't publish it in the name of commercial confidentiality. My latest for #EnergyFlux lifts that veil of secrecy.
💥Energy Flux💥@EnergyFluxNews
💥 REVEALED: How hedge funds are positioning on TTF to profit from EU gas storage targets 💥 The European Commission last week introduced intermediate natural gas restocking targets that added fuel to the fire of bullish bravado raging in the winter gas market. Traders evidently spied an opportunity to corner captive buyers. Today, exclusive data analysis by #EnergyFlux sheds light on how hedge funds are positioned along the TTF forward curve. It reveals a trading strategy clearly designed to exploit rigid gas storage targets. This Deep Dive explores: 🔧 The critical role of speculators in shaping TTF gas prices 🌊 Which TTF contracts the funds are holding, and how this has evolved over time 🌍 Why this matters for Europe’s energy transition and security. This isn’t surface-level analysis — it’s a proper deep dive into the financial currents influencing European gas and power prices. If you trade TTF futures or manage EU gas-related price risks, then you need to understand how hedge funds are positioned for the months ahead.

@HighwaysSWEST Is anyone on duty today? What's happening with the M5 in Devon?

And it is not only the spot prices, but also the prices of reserved capacity is much higher. See here the evolution since Monday.

Dunkelflaute for tomorrow.
936 €/MWh in Germany and Denmark at 5 PM.
Even during the energy crisis of 2022, day-ahead prices have never been so high.
The difference with France, Poland, and the Nordics is striking.

Gas gaming and Profiteering.
Meanwhile we rant at wind power 🙄
Stephen Stapczynski@SStapczynski
A pair of gas-fired power plants in the UK earned a fortune in a few hours when the wind wasnt blowing 🇬🇧 💰 The move involved announcing a cut in power production ahead of the busiest evening periods, then offering to keep the station on at a high price bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

@horton_official Even if you don't leave here, it would be lovely if you could post on blue sky too
English
@horton_official There are far more people in the environment/climate space on blue sky now. You're sorely missed! Please come over.
English
@NerosSlacker @ionewells @WyreDavies @carolinehawley Not exactly appropriate. You might want to learn a little about some of your colleagues.

Upgrading to a heat pump? Get an extra 20% off when you order before the end of the year for #PinkFriday! Discount for #Octoplus members and comes off after the government's £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant.
English
This is deeply disappointing, as it's a) totally unnecessary bureaucracy, all heat pumps are near silent; b) unfair and discriminatory, as gas boilers are far noiser but aren't subject to noise assessment; c) undermines any benefit from removing the 1 m rule.
Dr Matthew Aylott@renewablewriter
@MingleDandy @Miatsf Maximum permissible noise limits will remain and all heat pumps will still need to comply with the Microgeneration Certification Scheme Noise Planning Standard MCS 020 to be eligible for installation under permitted development.
