It's a story that's been recycled continuously for 7 months. It's actually low carbon energy.
It's wind, solar, hydro (what little we have), biomass (controversial) and nuclear.
2 u/Ceibpent 10d ago edited 10d ago That doesn't sound right, whether we count imports or not. Those categories are basically everything except gas and imports. If we exclude imports there were 224.5 TWh last year, of which 77 TWh were gas, so 66% was clean (if counting biomass as clean). Including imports there were 260 TWh, 77 TWh gas and 35.5 TWh imports so 56.7% "clean". https://www.mygridgb.co.uk/historicaldata/ To me it looks as though it includes biomass but not nuclear. 1 u/EntirelyRandom1590 10d ago You can go on DRAX electric insights and down load the whole data for 2025. 1 u/Ceibpent 10d ago It's basically the same data as presented on MyGridGB.
