    According to a report from the OE website on May 24, according to temporary data from the British National Grid, the windy weather in the early hours of last Friday helped Britain set a record for wind power generation.


    The ESO (Electric Power System Operator) of the National Grid of the United Kingdom stated in an e-mail that between 02:00-03:00 British summer time, British wind farms provided 62.


    The United Kingdom’s goal is to achieve net zero emissions by 2050, which requires a significant increase in electricity from renewable energy sources.


    In the next 10 years, every family in the UK will be able to use wind power, and promised to increase the UK’s offshore wind power capacity from approximately 10 GW to 40 GW by 2030.
