A UK government auction has secured a record 11 gigawatts (GW) of new renewable energy capacity that will generate electricity nine times more cheaply than current gas prices.
The projects are all due to start operating within the next five years up
to 2026/27 and have agreed to generate electricity for an average price
of £48 per megawatt hour (MWh) in today’s money. This is nine times cheaper than the £446/MWh current cost of running gas-fired power stations.

Countries all over the world are making major strides in renewable
energy. Many nations are investing in new clean energy infrastructure
that is allowing them to supply enough power to meet their energy needs
by great percentages, if not entirely.
On February 22nd, Denmark generated enough energy with its wind turbines
to power the entire country for the day. An especially windy day allowed
the turbines to generate 97 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of energy. 70 of those
GWh came from onshore wind turbines and the remaining 27 GWh from
offshore installations. All of this power, generated from a single type
of renewable energy, is enough to power 10 million average EU homes.
This boost in wind power generation is partly thanks to a new offshore
wind turbine installation that was able to break the record for the most energy generated by a single turbine in a 24-hour period.

UK wind farms hit a new annual electricity generation record in 2022, according to statistics from the UK Government.
The figures, published by the Department for Energy Security and Net
Zero, reveal that wind generated 24.6%of the country’s electricity last year (80.2TWh), up from 21% (64.7TWh) in 2021 and an all-time annual high.
Offshore wind provided a record 13.8% (45TWh), up from 11.5% (35.5TWh) in 2021. Onshore wind also generated a record annual amount of electricity (35.1TWh), providing 10.8% of the UK’s power.
The growth in offshore wind generation was driven by the addition of
3193MW of new turbines in British waters last year, while just 318MW of
new onshore wind was added, mainly due to planning barriers.
Renewables overall produced 41.4% (134.8TWh) of the UK’s electricity,
while low-carbon sources (renewables and nuclear) generated a record 56%.
RenewableUK Executive Director of Policy Ana Musat said: “These record-breaking statistics show that wind is playing the leading role in Britain’s modern clean energy mix, keeping homes and businesses powered
up using our superb natural resources.
“Wind is our cheapest source of power and every unit of electricity we generate from it means burning one less unit of fossil fuel. Wind is the
key to cutting our dependence on expensive, volatile imported gas and reducing energy bills.
“But the international competition for investment in renewables is
intense, so we’re urging the Government to make Britain the most
attractive country for building new clean energy projects. This will
enable us to create tens of thousands of jobs and attract billions in investment, as well as ensuring that we can move faster towards our climate change goals.”
British renewables generated enough energy to power every UK home through
the winter, an analysis has shown.
This winter more electricity was generated than gas, and between October
1 and February 28, power generated by wind, hydro and solar reached 47 terawatt-hours (TWh), the Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit said.
Gas power stations would have needed about 95TWh of gas to generate the
same amount of electricity, equal to 110 tankers of liquified natural gas
or the amount more than 10 million UK homes would burn over winter.
Renewably [SIC] produced electricity this winter has replaced more than a third of the UK’s entire annual gas demand for power generation, the analysts said.
Without it, the UK would have had to burn more gas, which could have increased net gas imports by more than 22 per cent, including gas imported by pipeline.
“We’re seeing the old electricity system give way to the new, with renewables becoming the backbone and displacing more and more gas," said
Jess Ralston, head of energy at the unit.
“Battery storage is ramping up faster than expected, boosting the UK’s energy security and leaving us less exposed to international gas markets. Lifting the ban on onshore wind will help.
"But with the US and the EU going gangbusters for renewables, eyes are on
the government, the Chancellor and the Budget to decide how the UK stays
an attractive market for the investments that will ultimately bring down bills.”
The UK has seen a significant increase in solar capacity over the past year, according to provisional figures released by the government.
As of the end of March 2023, the country’s installed solar capacity stands at 14.9GW, a 5.3% increase from the same time last year.
March 2023 alone saw 19,465 new installations, the largest number since December 2015, and accounting for 83 MW of capacity.
This surge in solar power comes after a sharp drop in installations in April 2020 due to pandemic-related lockdown measures, but the number of installations has since recovered and exceeded pre-pandemic levels.
Of the new installations in March, 86% were for domestic use, with 16,733 new domestic installations in total.
Last year saw nearly 112,000 domestic installations, the highest number since 2015.
This surge in domestic installations is a positive sign for the UK’s transition to renewable energy sources and a net zero future.
The UK’s renewable generation sector has started the year in full force with 4 January seeing 87.6% of zero carbon electricity generated onto the grid – a new record.
This is according to the National Grid ESO which detailed the record had
been achieved at the start of 2023. This showcases the progress that has
been made in the UK’s renewable generation sector and how, with further projects being connected to the grid, the UK could well hit 100%
renewables in the near future.
This record also provides a boost to the renewable sector with the UK
having established a target of achieving a 100% decarbonised energy
system by 2035. The nation has an interim target in which the energy
system will in part run at net zero by 2025 which is still on track, the ESO said.
The new record surpasses a previous one that had been set on 30 December
in which renewables and nuclear generated in a half-hour period 87.2% of
the electricity mix.
“It’s great to see that we’ve also set a new record of nearly 90% of our
electricity generated by low carbon sources, as it demonstrates the
enormous amount of progress which the UK has made in moving away from
fossil fuels, getting us closer to our net zero goal,” said RenewableUK’s CEO Dan McGrail.
The end of 2022 saw another record broken by the UK renewable generation sector. The ESO confirmed that the wind generation record had been broken
on the 30 December for a third time in 2022. On this day, wind generation reached 20.918GW in a half-hour period between 6 and 6:30pm. This is just higher than the previous record that was set on 2 November which stood at 20.896GW.
Analysis from Imperial College London showcased that the UK sector had a strong showing in 2022 with the data having suggested that renewables accounted for around 40% of Britain’s electricity mix last year. In comparison to figures in the previous decade, this has quadrupled.
The UK has seen a significant increase in solar capacity over the past year, according to provisional figures released by the government.
