Any one know if this is true for plug-in batteries as well?

Good luck placing anything on your balcony without freeholder/landlord consent, especially post-Grenfell.

that should cover the electric toothbrush then – energy security attained

It’s obvious we have to go much harder on renewables. Energy independence and security will be very important in the future.

The plug in solar panels is an interesting concept but i think it’s also a bit iffy to recommend them in this context. Looking at a 5 year pay back period and very much a niche product.
They seem welcomed though but not on the scale of action people are looking for.
I’d want to see some zonal drill areas near our borders to allow companies to extract energy (and this revenue to us all) rather than letting our neighbours exploit it – reservoirs don’t respect borders, oil and gas can flow laterally.

„plug-in solar panels“. Jesus Christ, just build a nuclear power station or two.

In every single interview that gets asked to this useless muppet, there needs one simple question… by what date can the British public expect energy prices to go down across the whole year.
Miliband’s political career should be over by 2029, preferably before then.

Maybe we should start by condemning the war and withdrawing support from the US so it ends faster? Why are we helping to attack Iran when that’s the reason for the price increase???

Renewable options are still far too expensive in the UK and the ROI very long as a result.

Make every new build warehouse have solar. Expansive roofs ideal for this application. Build a mega wind farm on Saddleworth Moor and use old coal mines for district heating. Probably won’t happen though

Yes, more intermittent power generation is what we need, that is our most expensive form of energy because we have to line the pockets of the wealthy donors of the Labour Party, not reliable base load.

I already have an EcoFlow plug-in system. Its been great so far with x4 450W panels on my fence and around 6kWh of batteries. I mainly save via load shifting by using octopus agile tarrif and on a good day I find around 40% of my usage is covered by solar. It obviously cant cover all my usage and its not as good as a full system but for my use case in a victorian terrace with little roof space and not knowing if I will live in the property for that long its awesome.
So with solar and load shifting combined I am saving a lot of money on my bills.

Miliband still won’t answer direct questions on energy transition and security. Net Zero includes an oil and gas component and gas in particular is needed until we get to Net Zero, that’s estimated to be 20 – 30 years. Miliband has made the decision to spend tax payers money on buying overseas gas and making UK oil and gas workers redundant when he could be getting tax, needed to fund Net Zero infrastructure, from UK produced gas and UK workers. He repeatedly deflects by saying UK gas won’t bring down energy bills, which is true, but won’t discuss lost tax incomes, lost jobs and UK O&G resilience.
