Solar powers record share of Britain’s electricity mix in July

Solar energy provided a record-breaking 14.4% of Great Britain’s electricity supply during the month of July. This milestone was achieved through a combination of large-scale solar farms and an increasing number of residential rooftop installations across the country.

The surge in solar output is attributed to a significant rise in new installations as households seek to reduce their energy expenses. This record performance highlights the growing role of solar power in the national electricity mix.
