In a nut shell - Convert every device you own to an electric equivalent and power with 100% renewable electricity. Simple !

There can be upstream CO₂e (Carbon Dioxide & or equivalent) cost associated with manufacturing, but these are massively outweighed by being CO₂e free.
Never be a fossil fool again !

Retain

Keeping the heat you already have instead of wasting it.

Heating

The cleanest greenest ways to heat your property are :-

Electric Car

Powered by 100% renewables.
EV's could revolutionise green energy, providing a switchable load/battery for the grid.
Watch the Fully Charged show to get the latest.

Vehicle To Grid

Vehicle To Grid (Octopus)
Electric Vehicles are an essential element in our transition to a clean, green future, and it’s not just because they’re ultra-low emissions. We’re right at the forefront of a pretty incredible alternative use for the car battery.

Renewable Energy

"If we solve scope 1 and 2 - Scope 3 should solve its self"

A quick reminder
  • Scope 1 are emissions from your own burning of fossil fuels or emissions of other greenhouse gases;
  • Scope 2 are emissions embodied in purchased energy services – electricity, steam, heating and cooling;
  • ​Scope 3 are emissions elsewhere in your value chain, either upstream or downstream.

Induction Hob vs Gas hob

   Ditch your fossil powered gas hob / oven.

  Induction hobs are -
  • Very easy to Clean
  • Easy to Use
  • Zero CO₂
  • Faster than gas
  • Economical as they only heat the pan and the food.
  • Installation can be almost as simple as plugging in a kettle.
   More powerful ones can have a dedicated cable installed. Having had Gas & Electric with heavy duty 6mm cable. I have found that the Induction is much more powerful than gas. I never use the POWER function so you may find a simple plug in one would be fine.

Lawns & Meadows

   Instead of having boring piece of uninteresting grass, just mow a path to walk on and leave the rest for nature like the old meadows just mow once a year. You will be amazed at how many species of insects and meadow plants will return.

   Switch all your devices to the electric equivalent. Battery Electric lawn mowers chainsaws hedge trimers are way easier to use and do just as good a job.
