The house is fully electric and we drive an electric vehicle, so overall we are ‘net zero’ in terms of scope 1 (direct) and 2 (indirect) CO2 emissions – this is our ‘new normal’. We have moved to time-of-use tariffs from a local energy retailer to make use of cost savings by shifting loads to low-priced times, and any grid power that is purchased is 100% renewable energy.
