We have had our rooftop solar since 2014. It has paid for itself, and still generates 10K+ a year.

Whenever I can, I urge UK Labour to change the CAP formula. That's what is partly holding prices back. Our prices are based on gas, not the reality of how much energy costs today across the whole spectrum of options.

Reform’s former Welsh leader, Nathan Gill, has pleaded guilty to accepting bribes from Russia.

The people of Wales deserve full transparency about foreign interference in politics.

Those interviewed by counter-terrorism police in connection with the case should be publicly named.

The ICE raids, the Guard deployments, the fear — it’s all real.
But I can’t shake the feeling that Trump pushed too far too fast.
People are waking up. Judges are pushing back.
Maybe this isn’t the end of democracy — maybe it’s the moment it remembers to fight back.

Grid scale batteries are changing our electricity system. Excellent new visual story on batteries in FT today shows just how far this technology has evolved.

Fasten your seatbelts, this is just the beginning.
