Official figures show wind, solar, hydro and biomass generated 50.4% of UK power last year, up from 46.5% in 2023, due to record high levels of wind and bioenergy power.https://www.edp24.co.uk/news/national/2 ... cord-high/
At the same time fossil fuels – mainly gas – fell to a record low share of 31.8% of generation, with Britain’s last coal plant shutting in September 2024, the figures from the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero show.
Greenpeace UK’s head of climate, Mel Evans, described the renewables figures as “fantastic news”.
“More of our electricity than ever before is produced by the wind and the sun as we continue to move away from dirty gas.
“It’s also what we are seeing globally as last year renewables made up over nine tenths of new electricity capacity.”
