Some context would make it more interesting. How much of it was used? How much does wind contribute to full day consumption? | ||||||||

In Ireland, we’re running at about 75% renewables for the day, with most of that being wind. The absolute numbers are smaller, but that’s a peak of about 500 MW of solar and 3.6GW of wind, against something like 5-6Gw of demand. | ||||||||

I shed a little more light on the context via my map which you can also find linked on the page: https://renewables-map.robinhawkes.com | ||||||||

Not to steal from Robin's excellent work, you can see how much it's been (low carbon/renewables generation) over the last twelve months at https://app.electricitymaps.com/map/zone/GB/12mo/monthly (~56% renewables, ~73% low carbon) (Robin, if there is a way to see this on your site, I could not find it, my apologies!) | ||||||||
