This is the moment Ratcliffe power station came off the electricity system for the final time, marking the end of 142 years of coal generating electricity in Great Britain!

The wind record continues to tumble 🌬️🌬️🌬️ For the 🌟first time in UK history🌟 we can confirm that wind has produced over 20GW of electricity!!! We’re waiting on further data to confirm the final figure but it’s clear we have a new record

So the final figures are in! Yesterday, wind generated 20896MW in the 12:30 settlement period. That's OVER HALF (53%) of all of GB's electricity. Overall, it was a VERY green day - 70% of energy was zero carbon (Nuclear, Wind, Hydro, Solar & Storage)🌬️🍃🇬🇧🥳#netzero #energy

Wow, wasn't it windy 🌬️ yesterday! So much so that we saw a new max #Wind generation record 🏅 of over 21.6GW We are still waiting for all the data to come through for yesterday - so this might be adjusted slightly. Great news for #ZeroCarbon #Electricity operation.
