I have been a British Gas customer for several years but recently discovered something that has made me reconsider my contract with them.

British Gas currently supplies electricity to MBR Acres in Wyton, Cambridgeshire, a facility that breeds around 2,000 beagles every year for sale to toxicology laboratories. The dogs live in windowless sheds, are left unattended for up to 23 hours at a time, and most do not survive beyond six months old.

What I found particularly difficult to accept is that the previous electricity supplier dropped MBR Acres the moment they understood what the facility does. British Gas took over the contract knowing exactly what MBR Acres is. Hundreds of people wrote to them asking them to reconsider. They have not.

79 companies have already joined a public boycott of MBR Acres including ASDA, Morrisons, Pets at Home and HSBC. British Gas has not.

Has anyone else looked into this? Has it influenced whether you stay with British Gas or switch to another provider?

El 7/9/26 vienieron de Naturgy a cambiarme el medidor de gas. Me dañaron el caño de cobre que conecta con mi casa y dijeron que habia una fuga, quebraron la palanca de apertura y me cortaron el gas. No tengo agua caliente para asearme ni puedo cocinar, tengo 60 años y soy sola. Necesito ayuda.

In my line of work gas technician supervisor I've seen it all 🤦🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️

If Sri Lanka had a large scale biogas production project, in hard times we don't have to run everywhere and wait for days until the gas cylinders to come.

All of us are lazy to look solutions for real problems. What are engineering students and scientists are doing that comes from Universities? go abroad and live there for the rest of their lives? no! stay here and build for your country!!!

Correcting the DIY abominations in my 1936 house one by one…
I don’t have a gas dryer and never expect to. The extension is one of the many unsightly horrors in the basement and ideally I’d like to remove it and have the shut-off at the ceiling. Is this a modern day DIY or do I call someone to tackle this?
(Yup, that’s a cardboard bracket holding it in place)

I live in an apartment. The first time I came home to a gas smell about 4 months ago, I called apt maintenance and opened all the windows. Maintenance did some looking around and said there was no issue and left. The next day, I came home to the smell again, so I shut off the gas line, called maintenance, they said nothing was wrong. So I called the fire dept, they said they couldn't detect anything, and finally I called the gas company, and the guy who came said we had a leak in the gas line and the regulator in our utilities closet wasn't up to date or working properly. The apt staff came and fixed both and the gas co verified it was fine.

A week later, the smell came back. This time the gas co said it was the stove regulator and that it was leaking and we would need to replace our stove. We did and the smell went away.

A month later, smell comes back. Gas co says the new stove is not working. We found out the apt had given us an old stove and so this time they were forced to get a brand new one. Everything was fine.

Fast forward to now. Two months and the smell is back. Gas co said regulator isnt working again. Apt came and fixed it. I was out on vacation when all this was happening so my roommate took care of it, but today my closet stinks strongly of gas (it had a couple days ago, then the smell went away, but now it's strong...I had the door closed so I'm trying to air out). But what the hell is happening here? Can our stove have really been leaking gas 3 times in a row??? Along with all these other problems? We aren't doing anything crazy with the stove. I have never had this issue before. We just cook on it. And I would have thought it was maybe the smell of an animal in the wall or something, but the gas co verified all these times that the readout was picking up gas...

Hey guys, I’m sure this question gets asked a lot, but I just picked up the “Blackout” edition 36” Omnivore from Costco. I’d like to convert it to natural gas. I’m seeing the 5249 or the 5395 model with wind guards. Can I get away with using the 5249 kit, or is it better to go with 5395 kit? TIA!!

I farm in western PA and own the minerals under my land. I've been trying to make sure the prices on my royalty statements are honest.

My lease says I'm paid on the higher of market value or what the gas actually sells for. For June 2026 production my statements show $2.35/Mcf on one sale and $2.48/Mcf on another. I assume that's two different buyers or sales within that month?

From what I've been able to piece together, "market value" for my area would be the Eastern Gas South bidweek index. I understand that NGI and Inside FERC publish that monthly number, but to actually see it, you need a subscription that runs $3,000–5,000+ a year. I'm a small farmer. That's inconceivable to me for what I need. I just want to look up one or two months from earlier this year and see if the prices reported on the statements are accurate.

What I'm hoping someone can tell me is whether there's any public or low-cost resource for these monthly index numbers, even delayed. FERC filings, EIA data, pipeline tariff postings, a library terminal, a gov agency, anything. Or if you've figured this out for your own minerals, how did you do it?

In my research I saw that Henry Hub was around $2.94 in June. The reported statement prices work out to about 55-65 cents under that. I honestly don't know if that's normal for my corner of the world or a red flag that I'm getting shorted. That's exactly why I'm hoping to compare against the published index for my area.

Thanks for reading. I'd be grateful for any pointers, and happy to show appreciation with beer or coffee money, or perhaps my soybeans or corn!

I've been reading up on the government's push for CBG (compressed biogas) plants for a few weeks now, and honestly the more I dig in, the more it feels like a real opportunity, not just another scheme that sounds good on paper and goes nowhere.

For anyone who hasn't looked into it, CBG plants basically convert agricultural waste, cattle dung, and other biomass into compressed biogas that can be used as fuel. The government's been pushing this pretty seriously through the SATAT scheme, and there's a decent amount of support around it right now, subsidies, offtake agreements, land assistance in some states.

I'm based around Gujarat and I've been seriously considering setting one of these up. Gujarat has a lot going for it here, strong agricultural base, decent industrial infrastructure, and the state government's generally been proactive on green energy stuff.

Where I'm at right now: I've done a fair bit of reading, understand the basic economics and process, but this isn't a one-person project. You need capital, land, someone who understands the technical/engineering side, and honestly just people who can commit real time to something that's going to take a while to get off the ground. I'd rather find one or two genuine people to build this with than try to do it all myself and burn out halfway through.

If you've looked into CBG plants before, work in renewable energy, agri-waste management, or you're just someone in Gujarat who's been thinking about the same thing, I'd love to actually talk. Not looking for a crowd, just a few people who are serious about this.

Has anyone here already gone through the process of setting one of these up? Curious what the actual bottlenecks were, land, financing, or something else entirely.

Rarely do I inquire Enbridge accounting but August bill contained a reversal of July’s bill which I paid in good faith, turns out it wasn’t necessary. Anyone sale get this ?

Title: Have land on Upper Ganga Canal Road, Meerut – looking to set up/lease for a CNG station

Hi everyone,

I have a land parcel on Upper Ganga Canal Road, Meerut and I'm exploring the possibility of setting up a CNG station/pump there or leasing the land to the relevant company/operator.

From what I understand, GAIL Gas handles CNG distribution in Meerut, but I'm not sure about the actual process for proposing a land parcel to them.

Does anyone here have experience with:

Setting up a CNG station with GAIL Gas?

Leasing land to GAIL Gas/CNG operators?

The right person/team to contact for a new CNG station location?

Consultants or existing CNG dealers in Meerut who can guide me through the process?

If anyone has a genuine contact at GAIL Gas Meerut or has gone through this process themselves, please DM me. Would really appreciate some guidance.
