380 watts per household for that heatpump if the scop is 3

by all means dont support Chinese car industry, unless you want the EU to go further down the drain. China is not just a competitor , they are literally hostile towards the West and all your values. Supporting them is suicidal.

Well done 👍

Why do we need these propaganda channels, people will buy EVs when they are happy to do so. These videos are worthless.

Loved the content.

You can’t just criticise ice SUVs, the only saving grace about electric SUVs is the power train. But SUVs being by the go to design just shows that the car industry just doesn’t care about the environment at all, merely fulfilling quaotas given by governments. They’re pumping out execessively sized products that all require more materials than something smaller. Materials that are being burned through at an insane rate, selling to people on finance deals that they can barely afford - that then feel compelled to buy into ‘upgrade cycles’, for cars that don’t fit on peoples driveways - let alone on the streets they live on. I genuinely hate it and them and nothing is done to try and disincentivise them (or car use in general)

The difference is that BESS is overtaking pumped hydro in terms of power, not energy capacity. kW, not kWh. Those are two very different roles. Also, Esbjerg still has their waste incinerator. There is still trash that needs to be disposed of somehow.

Yes, I’m seeing one or two electric buses show up in the local towns and cities. Cheltenham could do with a few, especially route 51 as they’re still using old chuffers. Great show.

Engineering to the masses and good to see.Imogen being given space to add some technical depth to the show. Love.Fully Charged No 1 on my subscription list

Thank you for the video! Really good to see a great summary of what is being done and what the near future holds.

At any temperature, water per kg, has 4 times the energy stored than air, so great as a source for heat pumps.

Just put subsidised solar on every suitable property in the uk, will provide cheap electricity, take the strain off the grid.

Did you say Hydrogen Fool Cell? 😅

Good episode - still enthusiastic and informative, but less ranty than usual. Good balance.

This is not journalism. It is uncritical and biased propaganda. It is very suspicious how the comments are unequivocally positive.

We had an EV car for a year and changed to a Phev, not enough chargers and public holidays !, hours extra time spent charging on long trips and massive reduction in milage in the winter. Both on lease, but we have bought an Pev now, no mucky cables, no range anxiety and no frustrated, angry, and no more disgruntled EV drivers,,,, us.

I'm leaning towards a BEV next as the hybrids are just not giving the benefits promised and I've driven several BEV's over the last few weeks that are fantastic, very capable and fun drives but they don't seem to have a business model for the dealers so when Quinten is saying it costs nothing to service (meaning the car obviously didn't go to the dealer) then the dealers void any warranty. MG want £400 to service an MG4 x-power and if they don't see it in 12 month the warranty is void, this was straight from the A5 Cannock dealers mouth so shelling out £40k (Which you would have to for an ICE too) feels a risk to not then take it to them in case there is a major issue, so saying they don't need servicing feels a stretch of the truth the other way. I know, you deserve plenty of credit considering what the oil company trash talk says and I'm nit picking but as I'm trying to go BEV, some of what you say I'm not seeing from my perspective.

The irrational hate against Toyota must end at some point. The fact is that in the past decades Toyota has saved the world of tons of carbon dioxide with their efficiency in manufacturing, efficient engines, popularization of hybrid tech etc. They just made a prediction a while ago that demand for BEVs will slow down. They were right and past few months they had record earnings. They have rerouted some of these funds towards BEV research and they will be ready when the demand rises. Work towards charging infrastructure availability, reliability and ease of use. This will bring people to BEVs, not Toyota hate.

Cycling behind anything that burns diesel is awful. Great to see the new electric buses in London. More please!

Great episode, as always! ✌️⚡️⚡️⚡️

After more than 3 years of driving a Zoe, I've found that I drive it more efficiently now than when it was new. I was really pleased to attain to 5.3 miles per kWh in Summer 2021. But in Summer 2023 I saw 5.8 miles per kWh, and that figure is being seen again this year. That improvement in driving style more than offsets any degradation in battery range for our car.

Love my leaf 30 , it's great , more storage means more cheap electric to charge leafykins, thankyou for sharing :)

ruclips.net/video/Gam8TfVDtFE/видео.htmlsi=i2-J2dpPHFA9rIea Here's the BYD bus link for listeners that Robert mentioned in the video.

Where is the massive investmemt in charging infrastructure that would be required for 100% BEV? As far as I can see its not happening. The grid is creaking at the seams without throwing cars at it too.

Whilst I 100% applaud the governor of Vermont's efforts to make the polluters pay, it may be more cost effective [and quicker] to remove any taxpayer funded subsidies baked into the taxation system. The amount of money that will have to be spent on legal fees by Vermonters will only delay meaningful climate change prevention and mitigation measures in Vermont by many years. As Robert so rightly pointed out, the fossil fuels industries will wield their mighty legal club with gusto until the bitter end.

Hi, I watched your video when you put it up and I was enthusiastic. In fact, I am in the process of getting a Heat Pump from Octopus (just waiting for a re-survey) and I have asked if I can have the Cosy 6 rather their current Daikin offering. However (& it's a big however), MCS has now tested the Cosy 6 and it didn't do very well. At 55° flow temperature, the SCOP is less than 3, which, as I'm sure you know, means that it would be more expensive to run compared to a dirty gas boiler. Even at a low flow temperature of 35°, the SCOP is still less than 4. It's very disappointing!

Wilson that writes for Classic cars and owns Classic cars is now out to destroy them Or is he in a bidding war for his "expertise" between Classic car and the EV pushers / con artists!?!.... Oh I get it, they tried Clarkson, Hammond and then scrolled down the list until the con artists found a "motoring journalist" who would roll over for the cash!.... just another "affluent" making more money on the "climate" ticket at the expense of the REAL working people trying to travel to work!

NEVER ever say to Kryten - SUV's then :D He will lose it!!! :D + I can't wait in London for all buses to go Electric. Sometimes just walking down the street it can be horrible near my Town centre :-/ + a future video on that would be cool to 👍 😎

This is ridiculous. There are at least two other eScooters available from Amazon now that have a similar spec, full suspension, indicators, 28mph, 25/30 miles range, etc. The downsides with this one are (1) Pneumatic tyres - these things tend to puncture. (2) Price £3,500 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Really???????? !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ( I have had an 800w eScooter with all the same features, range, speed, soft ride with all round suspension, climbs hills, etc and it was £550. So even if this one you're promoting is sturdier (?) a price of £3,500 is a total rip off because they've been through the DVSA. I could buy a decent motorbike, motor scooter or car for less than that and the 2nd hand value of this will be pennies, it will be unsellable. Insanity.

Before charging infrastructure is there, electric future is very far in the distance. Toyota did the right thing, nothing sad about it.

The last story on London electric busses? No mention of the quietness, quick acceleration, battery charging deceleration, and lack of engine vibration. Why not mention this?

Once you mentioned needing insurance, I switched off. That wasn't what people were waiting for.

Sadly, the advert I got during this episode was for how Shell are keeping Gas going to your homes🙈🙈🙈🙈 Keep up the good work!

Anyone got idea that the battery storage in Melbourne burst in fire before the day of completion. The fire had been put out after a number of days, started from Friday.

great news as large very heavily polluting commercials are being replaced by EVs - Bus looks great...and 400 mls range too! :) All busses, lorries, trains an shipping need to switch to electric asap

I like and prefer unbiased hyperbole, this guy is anything but unbiased. EV cars are not the answer, but only part of the global problem.

EVs are crap.😂

Coal-fired power plants in China generate over half of the world's coal-fired power and a significant portion of China's electricity. In 2023, coal accounted for 39.9% of China's electricity supply, while non-fossil fuels like nuclear and renewables accounted for 53.9%. However, China is responsible for 95% of new coal power construction in 2023, with 70.2 GW of new construction underway, which is 19 times more than the rest of the world. As of August 29, 2023, China has 243 GW of new coal power approved or under construction

U spelt the name of his podcast wrong on the podcast. Xeroth on the podcast, took me 20min to find this lol.

[9:00] Careful Rob. Don't forget to caveat that the Lifetime Cost Of Ownership has always been lower than ICE cars. I've never earned a high wage and I switched from a Petrol Ford Fiesta to a 24wkh Nissan Leaf in 2016. I immediately felt the effect of the cost of ownership and nicknamed my car "The Rolling Bank" because I saved so much money.

You should that SUVs need more resources being built to. And just listen to what you are saying. We let fashion destroy our planet. Didnt you hear? EU sets huge tolls on Chinese cars so no, they will not be able to cobtribute to cheaper electric cars in the EU.

Oh, that's beautiful!

There's no way in the world that motorbikes would ever be legalised as vehicles today if they had just been invented. Properly designed electric scooters are way safer.

Oh my God, that's a perfect vehicle! I ❤ it ! In Australia we are allowed to have them, and take them on the bus and train as well. 👍

Toyota sells cars at tiny margins to make profit from selling parts to stealerships. Oops, dealerships. Dealerships make most of their profit from maintenance. Electric cars need VERY little maintenance. Toyota's real customers are Dealerships. Dealerships won't make as much money from electric cars. Dealerships, Toyota's real customers, don't want to sell electric cars. Toyota's business model has to change. Or they may go out of business.

This video must have taken off after 20 minutes judging by the comments, I gave up at that point after listening to two people waffle on about absolutely bugger all.

The elephant in the room with solid state batteries is preventing dendrites from flooding. You didn't get into that at all, so perhaps that's part of the open "secret source" that this company has developed.

Hydrogen is odourless, colourless and explosive. OH! And the flames are invisible. Can you imagine being a first responder to an auto accident? You will not rush in to help the folks in the accident until it has been hosed down by the fire department. In the meantime the person in the vehicle dies for the lack of first aid. I am fine with hydrogen for stationary applications.
