Corrections Policy

We publish numbers. Numbers can be wrong. This page explains how to tell us, what we do about it, and how the change is shown to readers.

Last updated 10 August 2026 Errors fixed openly, not quietly

1. Our commitment

When we get something wrong we fix it promptly and say what changed. We do not silently edit a factual claim out of a published page, and we do not delete a page to make an error disappear.

2. Types of change

  • Correction — a factual error (a wrong figure, name, date, unit or attribution). The text is fixed and a dated correction note is added to the page.
  • Clarification — the facts were right but the wording was open to being misread. The wording is sharpened and a note explains the change.
  • Update — new information has emerged, or a source has revised its own figures. The page is updated and the revision date changes.
  • Model revision — an assumption or default value inside a calculator or report changes. We record the old value, the new value and the reason.
  • Typographical fix — spelling, formatting or broken links. These are made without a note, provided no factual meaning changes.

3. How to report an error

Email info@aienergyintelligence.co.uk with the subject line Correction, or use the contact form. Please include:

  • the page URL;
  • the exact sentence, figure or calculator output you believe is wrong;
  • what you believe the correct position is;
  • a source, if you have one.

You do not need to give a reason for your interest, and anyone can report an error.

4. Submit a correction

You can send a correction directly using the form below. It reaches our review queue; it does not change anything published on the site by itself.

Submissions enter an administrator review queue. Published data is never changed automatically by a submission.

5. What happens next

  • We acknowledge correction requests within 2 working days.
  • Clear factual errors are corrected within 5 working days of being verified — usually much sooner.
  • Disputed or complex points (contested modelling assumptions, for example) take longer; we will tell you our expected timescale and keep you updated.
  • If we conclude the page is accurate, we will explain why and, where relevant, add a clarification so other readers do not hit the same ambiguity.

6. How corrections appear on the page

Corrections and clarifications are shown in a dated note at the foot of the affected article or report, stating what was previously published and what it now says. Where the error was significant enough to change the headline conclusion, the note goes at the top instead.

7. Takedowns and unpublishing

We only unpublish a page where there is a legal requirement, a serious privacy or safety risk, or where a piece is so wrong that correcting it is not possible. In those cases the URL is retained with a short note explaining that the content was withdrawn and why.

8. Third-party news items

Items in our news section summarise and link to reporting published elsewhere. If the original publisher corrects or retracts a story, tell us and we will update or remove our summary. Corrections to the original article itself must be raised with that publisher.

9. If you are not satisfied

Reply to our response setting out why you disagree. Your complaint will be reviewed again by the editor, who has final responsibility for published content — see the editorial team page. Our wider publishing rules are set out in our editorial standards.
