" You cut your bills by around £500 a year if you install a heat pump." Welcoming the government's Warm Homes Plan, Electrify Britain CEO Camilla Born tells BBC News Talking Business' @benthompsontv.bsky.social heat pumps are simply a "better heating system".

“If you break the link between gas and electricity, you’ll probably save consumers a lot of money.” Gas sets the electricity price, so wind and nuclear are sold at higher gas-driven rates, cutting that link could lower bills. @adambell.bsky.social Partner at Stonehaven, on the Today programme.

A data centre under your sink or in your shed pays your heating bills. “We pay for the electricity to run the modules, and the computing power heats your water and home. The excess heat can replace a boiler or heat pump, cutting your energy costs.” Travis Theune, CEO, Thermify. thermify.cloud

"The fat cats are doing absolutely nothing." Rubbish from fast food is a growing problem, but the firms responsible are doing nothing, litter champion Gill Thomas says. Volunteers in Stroud have used AI to map hotspots and track the worst offending brands, identifying 750,000 pieces of litter.

Oil and gas workers want heat pumps too. “We have the worst housing stock in Europe when it comes to energy efficiency. We waste 80% of the energy we put into many of our buildings.” - Matt Clubb, Chair, North East Scotland Retrofit Hub, on retrofitting homes in Aberdeen, Radio 4 PM.

UK energy bills largely shielded till June but risks remain “The UK has diverse gas supplies from the North Sea and Norway, so households are largely protected for now…if the disruption continues for months, it could push prices higher later in the year,” - Adam Bell, partner, energy at Stonehaven.

"If you can produce your own energy, you bring down your bill." Homegrown energy is the best way to insulate ourselves from global fossil fuel shocks, as has happened after the Iran conflict, says Electrify Britain CEO Camilla Born on GB News.

"ITS A PANTS CAP" "You should not be on the price cap if you can get off it." With the energy price cap going up in January as well as in April. Martin Lewis tells households "cheaper fixes are currently 10% less than the price cap with cheaper tariffs coming next week."

In 2025 UK households installed renewable energy systems every 90 seconds. Solar, heat pumps and battery storage increased 34% over 2024 figures. "More people are wanting to take control of their energy, cutting the cost of their bills and carbon at the same time." - Ian Rippin, CEO of MCS.

"We can expect certain food imports to become more expensive, and that'll have a knock on impact on inflation." The El Niño year declared by the @wmo-global.bsky.social will threaten crop yields and destabilise the global food system, @oxmartinschool.bsky.social's Professor Myles Allan says.
