Reposted by Matt MagillDan Grey @dangrey.bsky.social · 22/04/2026It appears Great Britain set a remarkable new record for clean power this afternoon: between 3pm and 3.30pm, just 420 MW of 33,640 MW electricity generation was coming from fossil fuels (all gas) Gas was just 1.2% of all generation. The rest was wind, sun, nuclear, biomass (5.5%) and imports (6.9%) 44313
Reposted by Matt MagillDan Grey @dangrey.bsky.social · 23/04/2026Great Britain today has smashed its record for solar power (which was set only a couple of weeks ago) Up from 14.4 GW to 15.2 GW! Solar power was supplying 41% of all electricity demand at the time. 2236
Matt Magill @themattmagill.bsky.social · 23/04/2026So close to GB running zero carbon yesterday. Well done to everyone in the GB energy space - 🏆 Record-breaking day for Great Britain's electricity system! ⚡ On 22 April, we achieved a new zero-carbon record, with zero-carbon sources providing 98.8% of our electricity between 3:30 – 4pm. 141
Reposted by Matt MagillMike Thompson @mikethommo.bsky.social · 13/01/20261/ Some wild numbers have been used in the media this week for “the cost of net zero”. Reports have said that net zero will “cost” £4.5 trillion, £7.6 trillion – the list goes on. None of these are the cost of net zero – a quick explainer 🧵 on why 34223

Reposted by Matt MagillProf Michael Meredith 🌊🧪🥼❄️ @oceanandice.bsky.social · 02/01/2026A picture is worth 1000 words... This appeared on the BBC News today, showing the increase in solar electric generation in the UK. Not sure who produced it, but genuinely think this is a genius piece of scientific communication - the construct and choice of colour scale is near-perfect. Chapeau! 14578201

This is a huge success story, despite what Russian bots and U.S fossil fuel shills scream on X. Every unit of clean domestic energy we produce means a safer future for our children…🥳 913465843
