Can confirm. Have become a total energy nerd. Want more solar. Want heat pump. Watch how much we spend and how much we make every day. Tell everyone about it and have no shame. It's a hell of a drug.

Good news. I installed 14 last year and expected if all went well to have them paid off in 12-14 years. Going by the last 10 months it will be less than 6. That's from a combination of savings (1/3 of the energy bill) and also selling the excess to the grid (£164 worth so far) and all of Ttat's at 55-ish degrees North too on a not ideal roof. Anywhere south of me should absolutely have them covering their roofs, there really isn't a good reason not to.

Next up is top up insulation and replace the boiler with a heat pump. Possibly a second battery.

Is oftentimes better than a master of one.

People always miss that bit out.

I just started watching this again this morning. It's a huge slab of nostalgia for sure, the music is cracking and some of the art styling and designs are ace but I'm not sure if it's actually any good. It's hard to separate the nostalgia from the critical thinking.

Let them get back on track with their DLCs and then we'll see the money printer whir back into life. Paradox gonna paradox.
