"On Boxing Day more than half of country’s daily electricity came from wind turbines"
"More than half of Great Britain’s daily electricity came from wind turbines for the first time on Boxing Day, as the country headed for its “greenest year on record”, due in part to the coronavirus.
As Storm Bella arrived, bringing gusts of up to 100mph, wind provided 50.7% of Great Britain’s electricity according to data charting the power generation mix.
While wind briefly hit 60% in August, it had not previously sustained such levels for 24 hours."
