National Grid confirmed that a record was set this week for the amount of electricity generated by wind turbines in the UK.
Graham McQuarrie at the National Grid’s press office said that at 8.30pm on Monday 6 September that 1860 Megawatts was being generated from wind energy mainly from Scotland – accounting for 4.7 per cent of total generation at the time.
Over the 24 hours for the day between midnight and midnight, wind generated 5 % of all electricity – 40GWh out of a total 809GWh.
National Grid also believes that if embedded wind generation is taken into account, about 10% of the UK’s power was generated by wind on Monday.
