NEW: Something remarkable happened recently and hardly anyone noticed – GB electricity demand was 100% covered by clean power

We took a look at the data and this has happened for a record 87 hours in 2025 to date, twice as often as ever before

We’re consulting on reforms to the CfD for the next renewables allocation round, later this year - including potentially longer contracts.

These are some of the most important changes that we can implement for the 2030 clean power mix.
