Oh but HMT is perfectly capable of doing completely crazy stuff just to make the numbers add up - myopia seems to be rife around there.

But what HMT won't do, unless it is completely crazy, is scrap the Boiler Upgrade Scheme altogether, or restrict it only to fuel poor homes.
That would mean no support for heat pumps for most homes. It would kill the heat pump market. The UK would have no chance of meeting its climate commitments.

If HMT does scrap the ECO levy, it's likely to share the government funding across both the BUS and the fuel poverty programme.
That would mean less help for fuel poor homes AND less money available for heat pump subsidies than we have now. Not good.

I think part of this story (on eligibility for heat pump grants) is likely to be nonsense - I'll explain in a thread below.
But it is clear that the Treasury wants to abolish the ECO levy, which funds upgrades for fuel poor homes. This would be a serious mistake

There’s not much to say about the solid wall insulation failures that hasn’t already been said. A diabolical policy failure that wasted money and harmed people.
But one thing I will add is: I think it highlights the need for more state delivery capacity on warm homes, not just regulation

I know this is a futile exercise, but let’s count the mistakes in that one Payne paragraph…
1. “Renewables are no longer the cheapest form of energy” - don’t think so. Offshore wind has got more expensive recently, but onshore and solar remain cheap. And gas probably still costs more than offshore

A question for Times columnist Sebastian Payne:

The world's energy experts would like to know…

And this point about the opportunity for periods of very cheap electricity (and generally lower wholesale prices) is something that critics of renewables ignore, and advocates should make more of. More renewables should be a big upgrade on our current electricity system

1. Ignoring periods of v cheap renewable energy
The piece opens with this standard (and good) analysis. British electricity is expensive partly because it relies on gas. In France, nuclear usually sets the price; electricity is cheaper. In Germany, coal often does; its electricity is NOT cheap

No tree surgery as 15 mins of rain was too much but looking out of sparklingly clean windows at last. Last morning of sewing machine access before super tidy for photos.
