Live generation mix, demand and carbon intensity for Great Britain’s national electricity grid. Mix, type and carbon update every 5 minutes. Power flow is the most recent half-hour. The time series charts show today and yesterday, half-hourly, with wholesale price.
Battery figures are derived physical output (PN plus balancing actions), not metered output. Battery state of charge isn’t published. Unless shown separately, wind includes embedded generation.
