The latest
#EnergyPriceCap
announcement highlights the disproportionate cost of
#electricity
in the UK. If we
#CutTheCost
, we could lower

, strengthen energy security, and reduce

Our new report with
@regeninsight.bsky.social
shows that while biomethane is important for decarbonising some sectors, as reported by
@fionaharvey.bsky.social
it cannot decarbonise home heating at scale. Electrification is the only feasible way to do so.
