Today's Poll: If you have an electric vehicle (EV), how do you find the experience compared to driving a fuel (petrol/diesel) based one?
Really great two days hosting the @SubseaCables Cable Awareness Workshop at @NOCnews. I think everybody learned a lot and I got to touch some of the most broken bits of cable I’ve ever seen. Props to @MikeAClare for doing all the work and giving me half the credit.
Hey @g__j 100% customers would be willing to do this if they weren’t left out of pocket! And drivers wouldn’t need to stop at rapids if still awaiting home chargers or they didn’t have them.

@OctopusEnergy this week I’ve had 4 Octopus installer electric vans at my house. We have two 7kW charge points… how about covering the cost of charging the vans whilst they sit for 8 hours per day. Would be super convenient for your engineers 😉
You dared him - here he goes. CEO @g__j answers some of your burning energy questions while eating really hot sauces. Will he have a meltdown?! Full video here: octo.ps/Killer_Hot_Hou…
We're serving up some #FreeElectricity tomorrow ⚡️🍵 📆 1-2pm Sunday 20th October ✅ If you're an Octoplus member and signed up to Free Electricity emails, any extra power used will be free Don't forget to share your free-leccy-piccies 🤳 I'll be baking up a storm 🍰
…and someone had commented “people will always find something to complain about” 🤬 Anyway. I’ve cleared it. But I shouldn’t have to. Someone went and marked it out. Someone could have taken them back in. Poor show @IGUNrunning
For past couple of weeks my Octopus Energy powered ASHP has been hitting a COP (coefficient of performance) = 4.42. Meaning 1kWh of electricity generates 4.42kWh of heat energy for heating & hot water. Very quiet. Very efficient.
Anyone had a babboe cargo bike stolen in Hammersmith / Fulham / Barney? DM me for location (An unusual choice for joyriders… unfortunate for the owner but a lot less dangerous for all concerned)
Hey @myenergiuk, whoever thought "Added new icons for unpurchased products" was a genius marketing move needs to give their head a wobble. I'm never going to buy a Libbi, I don't need to see an advert for it whenever I open the app. In fact, shit like this is more likely to make…
No dock blocking! @TroyHawke shares the dos and don'ts of electric car charging etiquette, so you can always stay classy when charging ⚡️
Beware fraudulent lamp post charger barcodes. Dodgy ones are black and white, proper ones green. Feel the corner of sticker with fingernails and peel off. Never use these to pay. Please RT.
Its #christmas so lets #screw the #farmers after a horrific #2023 most of the supermarkets are at it we need #fairtrade uk produce @Tesco @AldiUK @LidlGB would you care to comment? @NFUtweets @FW_UKEvents @FarmersGuardian @TheFarmingForum @BBCBreakfast @BBCNWT @LivEchonews

Holidaying charging perfected by @molliesmotelUK - bookable fairly priced EV chargers - why aren’t all hotels with parking doing this. It’s a simple win win.
Can anyone recommend an economic alternative to @WildRefill now that they have priced me out of their product (greedy lot).
Do you want a Wallbox Pulsar Max (with installation)? Of course you do! ⚡️ UK only. You must own a home and have an EV (obvs!). Read the T&Cs and enter at misterev.co.uk/wallbox. Good luck! 🤞 youtu.be/_JgC_619JVE
