£15k invested with a medium risk portfolio I have with HSBC would
have increased to £22.78k over 5 years. I wonder if he has made
as much out of the FIT.



He would have made about £5k but at zero risk.

You aren't very energy efficient if you are using 7000kWhr a year.
That's more than I use and the daughter uses a lot.
You need to do better if you actually want to save the planet.


I could never save £4000 a year on energy, I don't pay anywhere near
that much and never have. You must waste a lot.

Yep. In a house with no double glazing, 100mm of loft insulation,
electric cooking, non-off peak electric water heating and direct
electric heating, I pay about £2,500 a year. The electricity company
keep trying to persuade me that is excessive.


That is more than double mine.
I use far more electricity than most people do too.
The fish tanks take about 10% of what I use.

Harry seems to forget what he has said in the past.
He said he didn't need to heat the place but he has had a heat pump
installed and a wood burner too.
I suppose they could be for decoration or maybe he is trying to get even
more payments from the RHI even though he doesn't need any heat.
