We’re generating less energy now? That’s interesting. Are we also consuming less energy?
The UK imports a lot of it’s energy, they don’t generate all they need. Only in 2022 they net exported, other years they net imported with a huge rise the past 2 years.
Well, appliances and electronics are generally getting more energy efficient.
In most places, electricity is generated and sent straight into the power grid for consumption; no batteries. The power draw is monitored and generators get turned on or off depending on the demand.
True, but the US population has grown 20% in the last 25 years, so it’s remarkable and great that we’ve been able to reduce our energy usage while growing the population.
UK, not US.
🤦♂️ thanks
UK has had a similar growth tho, so the point still stands :)
Surprising how little solar contributes
Clearly you’ve never been to the UK.
