Busy Energy supports YorEnergy: Adrian Takes the Stage for York's Renewable Energy Event

This month, Busy Energy had the pleasure of joining some of Yorkshire’s brightest sustainability leaders at YorEnergy, one of the region’s most exciting events dedicated to the future of renewable energy, low-carbon upgrades and smarter, greener homes.

And leading the way for us was Adrian, who not only hosted our Busy Energy stall but also delivered an insightful talk on heat pumps, solar power, energy-efficient retrofits and the real savings Yorkshire homeowners can achieve.

With over a decade of hands-on engineering experience and a passion for breaking down the jargon, Adrian became a firm favourite on the speaker lineup.

And yes, the turnout was fantastic. From homeowners to architects to local businesses, the room was full of people eager to understand how affordable and achievable renewable energy really.

🔧 Adrian’s Talk: Cutting Through the Noise on Heat Pumps and Home Energy Upgrades

Adrian’s session focused on the most common questions customers ask us every single week:

• Are heat pumps worth it in older Yorkshire homes?

• What grants can I get to lower my installation cost?

• How much warmer will my home actually feel?

• Is solar + heat pump the best long-term combo?

• Will I really save money switching from gas?

If you know Adrian, you know he gives straight answers - backed by real data from installs across Leeds, York, Selby, Goole, Hull, Harrogate and every corner of Yorkshire.

His message was simple:

Renewable energy is no longer the future. It’s the smart choice for right now. And it’s more affordable than ever.

🐝 Our Stall: A Huge Hit, Especially With the Busy Bees!

Throughout the day, our stall welcomed a constant buzz of visitors wanting to learn more about:

• Heat pumps

• Solar panels

• Battery storage

• EV chargers

• Octopus Energy partnerships

• £50 switching credit

• The BUS grant £7,500

• Our free estimator tool

• And everything renewable in between

But let’s be honest…

The real stars of the stall?

The Busy Bee plushies.

We brought a full stock of them...and they all went!

Every single one.

Children took them, adults took them, businesses took them for office mascots… one even made it onto a hi-vis jacket for the afternoon.

We’re still not sure if people came for heat pump advice or just to adopt a bee, but either way… it was a hit. 🐝💛

🤝 A Day Full of Great Conversations

Some of the best moments came from local homeowners who stopped by to say:

“I didn’t know heat pumps could work in homes like mine.”

“I didn’t realise I could get £7,500 towards the cost.”

“You’re the first installer who actually explained this clearly.”

“I want solar batteries - you’ve convinced me.”

These conversations are exactly why we attend events like YorEnergy. People need real answers, real expertise and real reassurance, not sales pressure or complicated jargon.

Busy Energy is built on being:

• Friendly

• Transparent

• Local

• Highly trained

• And always happy to help

And that’s exactly the energy Adrian brought to the day.
