OpenEnergyMonitor

I really enjoyed recording this podcast, it was great to chat to Gregg about @openenergymon.bsky.social all the other fun stuff e.g heat pumps and EVs 😀

This was recorded at the @fullychargedshow.bsky.social Everything Electric show, which explains why I was losing my voice!

The emonPi2 and emonTx V5 electricity monitors are available from our web-store shop.openenergymonitor.com/energy-monit...

Q1 2025 heat pump stats:

Energy in: 2,553 kWh @ 16.87 p/kWh avg
Heat out: 8,598 kWh

Avg COP: 3.37
Avg cost of heat delivered: 5.01 p/kWh [~31% cheaper than 85% efficient gas boiler @ 6.19p/kWh]

My system details here: heatpumpmonitor.org/system/view?...

Studies that are already out of date by the time they get into circulation is part of them problem.

Live results from @openenergymon.bsky.social for real-world heat-pumps illustrate what is possible, right now:

We've achieve a COP of 4.1 this week here in rural Scotland.

This cost includes remote support and lifetime data logging. By default, monitoring data is private, optionally you can choose to contribute to the open dataset of real work heat pump performance by making it public on heatpumpmonitor.org 🙏

30kW SolarEdge PV and 65kWh of GivEnergy Commercial battey system is now up and running, with @openenergymon.bsky.social monitoring 😀

Heat pumps are on site! Our shared office space will soon be heated by 2 x 16kW @viessmanncs.bsky.social ASHPs, of course with @openenergymon.bsky.social monitoring, no more LPG 😀

Proud to have played a small part in this, heat pump monitoring using @openenergymon.bsky.social has resulted in £100/month bill saving 👍

I really enjoyed this episode of the @TransitionShow.mastodon.energy.ap.brid.gy podcast with @richardlowes.bsky.social, thanks for the @openenergymon.bsky.social heatpumpmonitor.org mention, "brings an element of fun into heatpumps" 😁

I am excited that one of my heat pump installs is now on @openenergymon.bsky.social
Simply the best heat pump monitoring software.

Agree! To me I think we should all have @openenergymon.bsky.social, MCS should improve the minimum scop from 2.8 to 3.6 and then consumers should have better protection to get installers back to fix problems if they aren’t meeting these standards

🙌

Here's a video about an interesting ASHP installation I was involved with in a solid stone cottage, the combination of insulation, air tightness, UFH and MVHR has made for a very efficient low-cost heating system with a SCOP of 5.1 for space heating 😀 📈 youtu.be/YouOLThHSNk?...

This is part of a big electrification and decarbonisation project for the building to remove deoendancy on LPG, reduce running costs and increase energy security; this will involve 2x 16kW Viessmann ASHP cascade, 69kWh of GivEnergy storage, 30kW of PV and @openenergymon.bsky.social monitoring 😀

The Solar, Battery and Heat Pump "Holy Trinity" doing their thing today.

It's been pretty chilly outside but the winter sunshine means we are heating the house from the roof.

This Skill Builder heatpump now one of the best performing systems in the country thanks to a Heat Geek transformation! Here's the live and historic data monitored independently by @openenergymon.bsky.social 👏 heatpumpmonitor.org/system/view?...

Octopus Agile has generally been the best tariff for a heat pump, average over past 12 months

We've added Octopus Cosy and E.ON Next heat pump tariffs to HPM, the combination of smart tariffs and high performing heat pump installation can deliver cost of heat at less than 4p/kWh! 🤯🤑

Over-sized heat loss = over estimated design temperatures I wanted to share some thoughts about where I think we are with heat pump system design in the UK as we start 2025. There is a large performance gap between heat pumps that have been designed, instal...

I turned heat pump monitor into a very basic map I’ve taken locations and the stats using their API endpoints and have made a very basic map, of course the locations aren’t actually exactly where the pumps are but they will resolve to the town/city...

Thanks! This is the post for anyone interested community.openenergymonitor.org/t/i-turned-h...

The locations are user entered, some users intentionally enter vauge locations e.g this system is 'Cairngorms national Park', but it's obviously not a mountain bothy! 😂

Yes, this Panasonic installed by Tony Lake is getting great performance in the Cairngorms heatpumpmonitor.org/system/view?...
