Just turn up

3 bed cottage, ground floor dates from 1750, upstairs added 1970.

We removed the night storage heaters. Installed ground source heat pump, underfloor heating, skirting board heating, solar thermal for domestic hot water, two solar PV arrays (10kW total), 2 Tesla Powerwall batteries, Zappi smart car charger, 2 Eddi power diverters. Internally insulated most external walls.

Why did we make these changes? To stop using fossil fuels and to be as energy independent as possible.
