Boris Johnson and money saving kettles.

For the defence https://fullfact.org/news/Boris-Johnson-new-kettle/

My question, is it just a ridiculous analogy because there’s no such thing as an energy efficient kettle? 

Only behaviour change with people heating exactly the amount of water required rather than overfilling kettles will reduce energy consumption, people are just going to have to be told to be more frugal and be careful when  using appliance to ensure they are being energy efficient.

  • Any other energy saving kettle features?

    I reckon many are a bit slow at automatically switching off when they get to the boil - especially when boiling small amounts of water and steam seems to have to fill most of the remaining space before triggering the sensor. There's room for improvement there I reckon.

  • If Boris is referring to the older all metal kettles,would they not lose more heat before

    boiling compared to plastic kettles?
