“Powering the house for free,” says John Haines. You can’t ask for anything better.”
Since the adventure centre manager for Hull City Council went zero-bills, he hasn’t looked back.
Living with his partner and his two adult children, John wanted more control over his energy bills. It was when his father passed away, and he received an inheritance, that he decided to invest in his home.

It’s an investment that has been a transformation. John has turned his home into an eco-haven with a Cosy 9 heat pump from Octopus Energy, along with 14 solar panels. He also invested in an Enphase Energy 10kWh battery for energy storage and an Ohme Home Pro EV charger for his electric car. Together, they make an ideal combination to manage energy usage across the entire household.
