Want to cut energy bills and carbon with little upfront cost and no discomfort? Turning down the thermostat plus heated blankets and chairs is one answer. I report from a study in Belgum over 3 years. Breaking social norms turns out to be a big barrier.

Nice narrative of a heat pump defrost cycle from @Protons4B. Since I have a buffer tank, most of the heat for defrost comes from that but I still see a reduced radiator temperature when reverting to normal running as the buffer tank is then cool.

How much to remove the gas meter and come off the standing charge? Too much variation! Some experiences and some suggestions for regulations.

This study shows people are making great savings with TOU tariffs like Octopus Cosy - and good for the grid. However, people on Cosy are self-selected with the capacity to be flexible. They may not be representative of all households.
