Blimey it’s windy and sunny and atomy! ⚡️⚡️⚡️

Why am am I not surprised that @thesolarshed.bsky.social is the legend . @solarnation.bsky.social

75% of GB electricity from wind and solar, and ~90% low carbon if you add nuclear.

While you were sleeping, #windEnergy reached 72% of the National Grid's electricity demand. https://winderful.uk

Looking like April will ɓe best ever solar month with only 13kwh used for whole month. @thesolarshed.bsky.social @goinggreengrover.bsky.social @solarnation.bsky.social 13 year old solar pv 3.8kw and 2 year old 7.2kwh battery

@planetclaireb.bsky.social afternoon

“Want a chair?” a spectator asks. “No..chairs are for finishers,” John replies. In the howling wind and rain, John Kelly completes a “Fun Run” at the 2025 Barkley Marathons in 39 hours and 50 minutes. Afterward, he takes the ceremonial bugle and plays his own taps.

Stuff those complaining if your not a competitor. Starting a loop never mind finishing make you a remarkable individual. @ratjaw.bsky.social #BM100

To paraphrase JFK. @willbaldlygo.bsky.social We choose to go to the Barkley in this decade and do the other things not because they are easy, but because they are nearly impossible . BRAVO a Fun Run is remarkable and 1,2 lap or DNF is still beyond the the wit of nearly all of humanity. #BM100

OMG#BM100

@hminto.bsky.social bit late but enjoying the #AbilitySummit

@thesolarshed.bsky.social solar sourdough, tankful of hot water and full battery on solar. Oh and two loads of washing and dishwasher all on solar @solarnation.bsky.social

BRING. IT. ON! #bm100

Gaming my battery running dishwasher to empty battery just as the sun starts kicking in to fill up battery run house for free and hopefully tank full of hot water. Not bad for early march. @thesolarshed.bsky.social @goinggreengrover.bsky.social @solarnation.bsky.social

Full battery tankful hot water and run house for free. Spring is here @solarnation.bsky.social @thesolarshed.bsky.social @goinggreengrover.bsky.social oh and @rippleenergy.bsky.social working away to @theenergynerd.bsky.social

@dwaynefields.bsky.social great outfit run by scout volunteers. A district of Essex scouts got a great summer of adventure lined up. Please share or better still how about a visit www.instagram.com/p/DFxZwYDuZl...

@dwaynefields.bsky.social wow Am I really first of your followers. Proud to be part of scouts. Helping young people realise their potential

Just a a Friday reflection I love being a @rippleenergy.bsky.social member. Change transformation isn't a straight line or easy. But good to be in the change.

@thesolarshed.bsky.social @goinggreengrover.bsky.social @ofgem.bsky.social looks like weve done it again run the electricity in the house now for48hours. Panels will be charging battery in about an hour or less. @solarnation.bsky.social

#arcticspine 5/5

The Montane Arctic Spine Races 2025 in random mobile phone shots I took along the way… #arcticspine 1/5

@solarnation.bsky.social @thesolarshed.bsky.social @energysavingtrust.bsky.social @goinggreengrover.bsky.social first time this year ran the house overnight until the sun returned. 24 hours on solar.

I am floored. I will never forget this. #northernlights #aurora

Jon and Keira are back together again and within 10km of the finish line of the Montane Arctic Spine Race 2025 There are still more than 6hrs to go before that final cut off at 21:00 (20:00 UK time). It’s shaping up to be a VERY exciting evening here in Hemavan! #arcticspine25

The race that "couldn't be done" has 5 finishers. @spinerace.bsky.social Arctic Spine. Conditions were far from ideal, particularly over the first few days, making these finishes even more impressive. Chapeau to the fab 5! #spinerace #ultrarunning

Montane Arctic Spine Race 2025 / Final Day The final four finishers of the Montane Arctic Spine Races 2025 arrive in Hemavan! Joe Barrs and Ulf Nore in 8 days 15 hours and 19 minutes Keira Pavval and Jon Shields in 9 days 9 hours and 31 minutes youtu.be/3pL0c_DKfF8 #arcticspine25

Keira Pavval and Jon Shield crossed the finish line together this evening becoming the 4th and 5th people to complete the Montane Arctic Spine Race after 9 days 9 hours and 31 minutes on the Kungsleden Trail #HEROS #ArcticSpine25

Delaying putting dishwasher on for an hour so #SolarPV takes the strain. Hardly huge lifestyle change. Oh and I will get battery topped up by Solar. @thesolarshed.bsky.social @energysavingtrust.bsky.social @solarnation.bsky.social

Sunny morning in Suffolk for solar and windy day in Scotland. So roof top solar and community wind working hand in hand. @rippleenergy.bsky.social @thesolarshed.bsky.social

So far solar shaping up nicely for February. Nearly full battery and running house for from panels for 5 hours of day and then battery kicks in for a few hours worth. Plus might little slice of @rippleenergy.bsky.social @thesolarshed.bsky.social

There are approximately 60,000 rangers in Africa, and every day they risk their lives to protect at-risk wildlife. Most have no life insurance. If the worst happens their families have no support. A £50 annual subscription to www.rangerlifeafrica.com insures one ranger. Protect a family. Sign up ⬇️

@thesolarshed.bsky.social much better month than December for solar nearly double in January compared to December. Plus @rippleenergy.bsky.social contribution helping #SpringIsComing @energysavingtrust.bsky.social @goinggreengrover.bsky.social #BePartOfTheSolutionNotPartOfTheProblem

While you were sleeping, #windEnergy reached 48% of the National Grid's electricity demand. https://winderful.uk

Great meeting at Oak Tree Community Farm with Sam Barker of invertech Tom and I from the farm and Sara farm member and if Community Action Suffolk talking Solar Off Grid. Sam knows his stuff. Thanks for the introduction @thesolarshed.bsky.social

Standard #spinerace chat. A beautiful picture of the first sliver of dawn over the Cheviots from @oli-hague.bsky.social up in Hut 1. And me, with no idea what time or day it is anymore.

Nicky Spinks wins the women’s race at the Montane Winter Spine Challenger North Some runners require no introduction and high among those legendary few is Nicky Spinks. The Inov8 athlete has previously set the women’s record for the Bob Graham, Ramsay, and Paddy Buckley rounds… #spinerace

And Kim is on his way after a short lie down, two plates of chilli, some squash and a regroup #SpineRace
