Are we running out of critical minerals for EVs? Not really. Reserves are sufficient; the challenge is scaling up mining and refining quickly. Alternative chemistries like LFP and sodium-ion batteries, and rare-earth-free motors, offer flexibility if needed.

EV Myths You Thought Were Facts
Electric vehicles are taking the world by storm, sparking conversations and controversies alike. Are they the green champions of the road or hidden culprits of environmental harm? Can they truly replace the roar of petrol engines without missing a beat? And is our infrastructure ready to support this electric revolution, or will it buckle under the pressure? In this video, we're plugging into the heart of these debates. We'll explore what happens when innovation meets the open road, and whether the journey towards electric mobility is as smooth as the ride in an EV itself. Join me as we navigate through the electric landscape, separating fact from fiction with solid evidence and expert insights. It's time to discover the real story behind electric vehicles.

It's done. The gas meter has gone. No more gas standing charges. Electric all the way from here on in.

Anyone out there come across a suitable zigbee-based temperature sensor suitable for monitoring the ASHP and DHW water pipes? My current solution of Aqara temperature sensors velcro'd to the pipes is sub-optimal #homeautomation @tomasmcguinness.bsky.social #homeassistant

Today our new heat pump got turned on. It will take a few days to settle in, but on our journey to net zero this is a significant step.
I also asked for my gas supply to be cut off.
