"UK: Fossil fuels fall to 35% of Britain’s electricity supply
Emiy Gosden, The Times

"The UK’s electricity system had its “greenest year on record” in 2023, the Times reports. According to the paper, fossil-fuel generation fell to an all-time low in 2023, accounting for just 35% of Britain’s electricity. It continues: “Imports surged to account for a record 9% of Britain’s electricity mix, driven by low-carbon nuclear power from France and renewable hydro power from Norway."

.....

the Times report suggests a trend to replace power sourced from fossil fuels with power from renewable sources continued in 2023.

that same trend is evident in Australia, though the UK is way further down that road.
