Before I purchased my induction stove, my HVAC air source heat pump, & my hybrid heat pump water heater, folks said they would be too loud. In all 3 cases they are quieter than the appliance they replaced. Don’t fall for misinformation. Vested interests want you to stay on fossil fuels. 🧪💡☀️💨🔋

Will solar PV soon be the cheapest source of electricity in most places around the world? This @naturecomms.bsky.social paper says yes.

Most surprisingly this is AFTER including short- and long-term storage costs for renewable energy sources.
