Well one of you is right.
What is the lag on the data, as Culzean posted earlier not long after the sun came up round here?
Also, does the solar figure include domestic panels? It is really sunny here in Yorkshire on the hilltops.
Oops, went to quote you and clicked thanks instead - is there any way to 'un-thank' someone ?
The sun in winter ( October to March ) is useless for solar and the sky by us has never changed from a dull battleship grey for a couple of days now. Sun too low in the sky and too weak to produce much energy, even without clouds. Patch of sun in Yorkshire neither here nor there in overall scheme. There is a solar panel supplying one of our CCTV cameras, battery % charge has been dropping for a few days now, still I don't rely on that solar panel for heating, cooking, and charging my car.
Just looked again, wind 0.7GW and solar 0.5GW and coal 2GW, biomass ( American trees ) 2.4 GW
