BOLTON, England, May 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — SPECIALIST business utilities retailer Love Energy Savings is now a BT Authorised Partner for business connectivity products, including broadband.
The move will double the UK addressable market of <a href="https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.loveenergysavings.com%2F&data=05%7C02%7CAlice.Christie%40ico.org.uk%7C3380843c118b4a29e4e808dc766276d9%7C501293238fab4000adc1c4cfebfa21e6%7C0%7C0%7C638515412480765795%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=C6w66%2BJJocjFByAFx3zcjawZPLwOHph1VnnW1w8iP4g%3D&reserved=0" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Love Energy Savings</a> to all 5.5 million small and medium-sized businesses across the United Kingdom.
Crucially, time-pressed SME owners will now be able to find the best broadband deal for them quickly and easily.
It comes as a Love Energy Savings survey revealed more than half of small business owners say they are working more days in the week compared with 12 months ago, so this will help SMEs reduce running costs through a price comparison service.
Love Energy Savings founder Phil Foster hailed the partnership as a “major milestone” in the Greater Manchester-based firm’s plan to grow its broadband division and accelerate growth in new products.
The company, who already has an existing relationship with thousands of British businesses that switch energy and water deals, will also be better placed to help SMEs navigate the Publicly Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) switch off ahead of December 2025.
According to Ofcom, BT currently has the third fewest complaints of any UK broadband provider while Love Energy Savings enjoys a five-star Trustpilot rating.
Phil Foster, Founder and CEO of Love Energy Savings, said: “We are thrilled that BT Business has decided to join Love Energy Savings in its mission to help British businesses obtain fast, affordable and secure broadband.
“Access to the best broadband deals has never been more important than it is this year as bosses explore ways to reduce costs and future-proof their business.
“We also see this as an added opportunity to raise awareness about the PSTN Switch Off and support business leaders through their transition to fibre-based broadband by the end of next year.
“This is a strategically important moment in Love Energy Savings’ 17-year history as we hope to use today as a springboard to scale our broadband division.”
Dave Male and Simon Ward, from BT Partner Channel, said: “This partnership between BT and Love Energy will be beneficial for our joint customers, building on the great customer satisfaction and loyal customer base that Love Energy has built over the years, in tandem with the breadth and reach that Love Energy have in the marketplace, will enable businesses to transact with confidence.”

The companies will explore deployment of heat batteries in Aramco’s global facilities to reduce operating costs and support emissions reduction objectives
ALAMEDA, Calif. and RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, May 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Aramco, one of the world’s leading global energy and chemicals company, yesterday entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Rondo Energy, the leading provider of lower-carbon industrial heat and power. The companies have started engineering studies for a first industrial scale deployment of Rondo Heat Batteries that would contribute to reduction of emissions from Aramco facilities, with subsequent scale up to 1GWh.
The companies further intend to assess the potential for additional scale deployment of the technology at Aramco facilities worldwide, and to explore joint development of novel applications of the Rondo Heat Battery technology, such as hydrogen production and carbon capture. Aramco Ventures concluded an equity investment in Rondo in July 2023. 
The Rondo Heat Battery supplies continuous energy from stored wind and solar power at the gigawatt scale and high temperatures needed for industrial processes. 
“Aramco has stated its ambitions to achieve Net Zero Scope 1 and Scope 2 operational greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 across its wholly owned and operated assets, and sees opportunities to build substantial lower-carbon new energy business,” said Ali Al-Meshari, Aramco Sr. Vice President of Technology, Oversight & Coordination. “Innovative technologies deployed at scale are needed to reduce the costs of emissions reduction, and we are investing heavily in developing these through our R&D, venture capital and technology deployment programs. We see Rondo’s technology having widespread potential application globally and in the Middle east specifically, backed by a team with a track record of delivery.”
Widespread application – industry, hydrogen, carbon capture, desalination Beyond deployments planned at Aramco facilities, the companies will also assess the potential to develop other applications for Rondo Heat Batteries. The companies plan a joint R&D investigation to explore the applicability of Rondo’s technology in hydrogen production, carbon capture (‘CCS’) and direct air capture (‘DAC’) projects.
The technology can also be applied in large-scale solar desalination facilities. As renewables become more deeply integrated in the grid, today’s thermal desalination facilities face economic and operating challenges. Rondo Heat Batteries can quickly convert these facilities to deliver water and power with lower carbon emissions and lower cost than replacing them. 
Local Value Creation Rondo Heat Batteries store energy in long-proven brick materials which can be cost-effectively produced with the Kingdom’s mineral resources. The companies will assess the potential of establishing large-scale energy storage manufacturing in the Kingdom. 
“Rondo is working with one of the world’s biggest energy producers towards solving one of the world’s biggest energy challenges – low-cost clean energy for industry,” said Rondo CEO John O’Donnell. “We’re thrilled to announce this MoU with Aramco aimed at delivering lower-carbon energy solutions that can help Aramco achieve their decarbonization ambitions, and support the world’s critical needs for solar desalination and clean hydrogen.”
The signing of the MoU was witnessed by US Secretary of Energy, Jennifer Granholm, and His Royal Highness Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman Al-Saud, Minister of Energy of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Rondo and its partners were recently selected to receive funding from the US Department of Energy (DoE) for several US-based RHB deployments, and this collaboration with Aramco highlights the DoE’s Office of International Market Development goal of enhancing and revitalizing U.S. competitiveness in the rapidly expanding global clean energy and infrastructure marketplace, while creating clean energy jobs in the U.S. and ensuring stable and secure supply chains.

At the end of the visit, a special configurator is accessible, allowing guests to design a bespoke timepiece powered by the Unico chronograph movement.

HUBLOT
Hublot is a Swiss watch manufacturer founded in 1980 and based in Nyon. For its first ever timepiece, this fundamentally disruptive company combined gold with a rubber strap in a case with a design inspired by a ship’s porthole (hublot in French). Thus, the Art of Fusion was born, blending tradition, innovation, craftsmanship, worlds and talents. It became the brand’s aesthetic and technical signature.
This identity was strengthened in 2005 with the Big Bang, which attested to an unrivalled know-how in terms of complications, manufacture movements and state-of-the-art materials. Carbon, titanium, ceramic and sapphire have been developed on this model to technical extremes.
This ground-breaking, high-quality approach to watchmaking is summed up in its philosophy ‘Be First, Unique and Different.’ It gradually led to other collections with innovative designs: Classic Fusion, Spirit of Big Bang, Square Bang and Manufacture Pieces. These draw on high levels of craftsmanship, both in terms of the materials so dear to Hublot (such as Magic Gold, brightly-coloured ceramics and sapphires) and its manufacture movements (Unico chronograph, Meca-10 and high complications such as the Tourbillon, the Cathedral Minute Repeater and the specific Manufacture Pieces movements).
Hublot’s world extends to powerful partnerships including football. ‘Hublot Loves Football’ has become the slogan at the world’s biggest sporting events (such as the FIFA World CupTM, Premier League, UEFA Champions League, UEFA EUROTM) and through its ambassadors. This love of football continues in art, design, music, sport, fine dining and sailing. Lastly, Hublot’s implication in joint environmental projects with SORAI and Polar Pod reflects its concern for the issues of the day.
Over 135 boutiques around the world share Hublot’s fervour and values, alongside the Hublot.com e-commerce site.
