About this listen

Plug into the Brand is your inside line to the companies shaping the future of renewable energy. We go beyond the brochures and glossy ads, sitting down with the people behind the products to ask the questions homeowners and installers really want answered.


From heat pumps and smart controls to solar, batteries and more, every episode dives deep into a brand’s technology, real-world performance and what makes it different. You’ll hear straight from product managers, engineers and innovators about how these solutions work, what to look out for, and how to make the smartest choices for your home or project.


If you’re tired of half-baked answers and confusing specs, Plug into the Brand gives you trusted, practical insights direct from the source.


Whether you’re researching your first heat pump, curious about the next generation of home energy tech or want to stay ahead of the curve in the low-carbon world, you’re in the right place.


🔌 Plug in. Get informed. Take control of your sustainable future.

  • Heat Pump Installation Standards: Time for a Shake-Up – Flexi-Orb vs MCS

    Heat Pump Installation Standards: Time for a Shake-Up – Flexi-Orb vs MCS
    Jul 1 2025

    Is the MCS monopoly about to be challenged? In this episode of Plug into the Brand, we sit down with David Lindsay from Flexi-Orb who are trying to shake up renewable energy accreditation in the UK. From PV and batteries to heat pumps, Flexi-Orb is stepping in with a mission: real competition, real standards and real consumer protection.


    Homeowners are fed up with failed complaints and the “gatekeeper” effect around heat pump grants. Installers are exhausted by box-ticking bureaucracy. Flexi-Orb says it’s time for a better way with true UCAS-accredited schemes, clearer standards and a single point of contact for when things go wrong.


    Can they really deliver?
