Housebuilders should lower buyers' bills with solar panels on every roof, renewable energy charity and company chiefs have urged. The seven chief executives and directors have called on Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner and Energy Secretary Ed Miliband to back the Sunshine Bill when MPs debate it in the new year. If MPs back the draft legislation, which the Liberal Democrats' Max Wilkinson tabled for a debate on January 17, it would bake into law a standard for newbuilds to come with solar panels on their roofs. Mr Wilkinson said the proposal is "just really, really obvious" amid efforts to reduce carbon emissions and lower costs. "Taking this one simple step would pay back to new homeowners, via lower energy bills, in just a few short years, helping protect homeowners from high and fluctuating energy bills," according to the letter. It continued: "Pressure on the wider grid would be reduced and the likely outcome would be a reduction in the country's emissions too, in line with climate change targets." Its signatories, among them Ecotricity chief executive Asif Rehmanwala and E.On Next director of residential newbuild Matthew Hart, also wrote: "The twin crises of high energy bills and climate change present this country with many challenges, but there are also a number of solutions that could be relatively easily implemented." "One of those solutions is the inclusion of solar energy on newbuild residential accommodation." Mr Wilkinson said: "Following the shortest day of the year (Saturday), it's time the Government finally commits to a sunnier future." He told the PA news agency: "One of the things that I think is just really, really obvious is that when we're building new homes, they should be built to high standards of energy efficiency and that they should include renewable energy generation, because that's good for the planet, but also, it's really, really good for people's bills." "We all know that we've had the energy bills crisis over the last few years and fuel bills for households remain stubbornly high, so it seems obvious that we should put solar panels on the roofs of houses, so those bills are going to be lower." The MP for Cheltenham in Gloucestershire described adding solar panels to the tune of "a few thousand pounds" as "marginal" against the cost of building a property, which "pays back to the new homeowner within five or six years anyway, so it really is a win-win". Asked how far the Sunshine Bill formally known as the New Homes (Solar Generation) Bill could go in tackling climate change, Mr Wilkinson replied: "There are the big international impacts that you're talking about on climate change, but that doesn't mean that we shouldn't make those marginal gains locally where we can, particularly when they can have a really profound positive impact on people's day-to-day lives." He said: "All I want this Christmas is for the Government to support the Sunshine Bill. Lower energy bills would be the perfect gift not just for me, but for the nation." A Government spokesperson said in an October press release that they "want solar panels on as many new homes as possible, because they are a vital technology to help cut bills for families, boost our national energy security, and help deliver net zero". But the press release confirmed a final decision on the amount of solar panels that new homes will typically be expected to include is "yet to be made", and that it is "a fundamental principle of building regulations that we do not constrain innovation by prescribing any specific technology". Mr Miliband previously said he was "very sympathetic" to Mr Wilkinson's proposal. Asked about plans for "new homes to come with solar panels on the roof as standard", Mr Miliband told the Commons last Tuesday: "I am very, very sympathetic to this, and we are in discussions with our colleagues across Government and watch this space."United Airlines travelers with lost luggage have a new tool to track their bags. If the lost bag has an Apple AirTag in it, that information can now be passed directly to United, the airline announced Thursday. The new feature, called Share Item Location, allows travelers with an AirTag or other Find My network accessory to share the location with the airline’s customer service team to help locate their luggage in the event it’s misplaced. United says more than 99% of its customers pick up their luggage without a hitch. The feature is now available with iOS 18.2, iPadOS 18.2 or macOS 15.2. “Apple’s new Share Item Location feature will help customers travel with even more confidence, knowing they have another way to access their bag’s precise location with AirTag or their Find My accessory of choice,” said David Kinzelman, United’s chief customer officer. Travelers on United whose bags do not arrive at their destination can file a delayed baggage report with United and share the link to the item’s location either through the United app or via text message. After the report has been submitted, customer service agents will be able to locate the item on an interactive map alongside a timestamp of a recent update. The shared location will be disabled after a customer has the bag, and customers can also stop sharing the location of the item at any time on their own. The location link will also automatically expire after seven days. Using AirTags or other tracking devices on luggage is increasingly popular among frequent travelers, with a significant boom following the 2022 Southwest Airlines holiday meltdown , which displaced thousands of travelers over Christmas and into 2023, alongside much of their belongings. United says lost bags are rare, with more than 99% of its customers arriving with their bags. It says the new technology will help those with lost bags to recover them more quickly because the airline will have more information about them. Apple previously announced the new service will also be integrated at other air carriers, including Delta Air Lines. Others include Aer Lingus, Air Canada, Air New Zealand, Austrian Airlines, British Airways, Brussels Airlines, Eurowings, Iberia, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Lufthansa, Qantas, Singapore Airlines, Swiss International Airlines, Turkish Airlines, Virgin Atlantic and Vueling.

Nasdaq surges above 20,000 after US inflation data matches estimatesOff the couch and into the fireAptiv PLC stock rises Wednesday, still underperforms marketCharlotte Lam Hong Kong's low-altitude economy is lagging behind, but it has the potential to catch up by learning from the mainland, according to Stephen Wan, director of Net Zero Agriculture. Wan said the mainland has been developing its low-altitude economy for two decades, generating economic benefits of 500 billion yuan (HK$533 billion) last year. This figure could quadruple to 2 trillion yuan by 2030, driven by rapid growth and widespread civilian applications like drone technology in agriculture, logistics and rescue operations. In contrast, Wan said Hong Kong has not made significant strides in developing its low-altitude economy. For example, Hong Kong still relies on traditional methods, such as using crane lorries to trim tree branches that encroach on neighboring homes, he said. "By utilizing drones equipped with the right tools, this task can be completed much more efficiently," he said. Currently, Hong Kong designates its low-altitude airspace at 300 feet or below, significantly lower than the 1,000 or 3,000 meters permitted in some other regions. In the latest policy address, the government announced the establishment of a working group to develop low-altitude economies and formulate strategic plans. Also, it plans to amend the civil aviation law governing drones over 25 kilograms, with proposals set to be tabled in the Legislative Council by the first half of next year. In response to the government's call to action, some universities, including the University of Hong Kong and Polytechnic University, are launching master's programs in low-altitude economics starting September next year. "This is a positive step, but the mainland has been exploring this field for two decades," Wan said. He added that in the mainland, drone operators conducting short-distance operations must complete 25 days of training and pass a licensing exam, with long-distance operations requiring 28 days of training. In contrast, drone operators in Hong Kong currently receive only five days of training. Wan suggested that Hong Kong should align its standards with those of the mainland, noting the importance of well-trained drone operators for fostering a robust low-altitude economy. Wan also proposed a ratio of one operator for every four drones, saying this level of operational efficiency could enhance Hong Kong's competitiveness.
The Chiefs turned in the same injury report on Monday that they did on Sunday and that’s not great news for defensive tackle Chris Jones’s chances of playing. Jones strained his calf in Saturday’s win over the Texans and he has been listed as out of practice both days. Those listings are estimations because the Chiefs have only had walkthroughs leading into Wednesday’s game against the Steelers, but the quick turnaround never boded well for Jones being in the lineup. Left tackle D.J. Humphries (hamstring) and cornerback Chamarri Conner (concussion) didn’t play on Saturday and they appear on track to miss another game as they’ve also been listed as out two days in a row. Right tackle Jawaan Taylor (knee) is the only player listed as a limited participant. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes (ankle), wide receiver Xavier Worthy (ankle) and center Creed Humphrey (shoulder) are notables listed as full participants.
