Well done wind

[Highway Man]

It takes a special kind of arsehole to hop onto a thread they don't claim to not care about to moan about it's existence.

Perhaps this one?

It's always nice to see the idiot Trump proved wrong.

Aahh I see, this is what the thread is about.

Not very windy today, but it is still giving us nearly four times as much power as gas.

Very encouraging.

Solar is patchy, at about 7GW

Bloody Trump, he has a lot to answer to.

Yawn.

Tired? Take a rest.

 

[Odds]

Wind generation hit a new record for the month of March in the UK, up 38% year-on-year, while solar nearly matched the output of last year’s exceptionally sunny spring. Together, wind and solar generated 11 terawatt hours (TWh) of electricity in March 2026, up a combined 28% and setting a new record for the month, avoiding the need for gas imports worth £1bn.*

* based on gas costing 130p per therm, or £44 per megawatt hour, compared with the range of 120-170p per therm seen over the past month.

So why have our energy bills just gone up?

Want to know what Green Energy can do for the country this year?

Astute People will tell you...

Its a shame that Gas prices have driven up prices again.
