U.K. Electrical Demand High.

Tonight the demand needle is nearly in the amber section of the meter. Does that mean this?


"According the Gridwatch tag: The amber warning represents the demand level that cannot be reliably met by wood or fossil burning, or nuclear generation, but must be augmented by imports, or unreliable intermittent renewable energy. Note that coal, gas and nuclear are close to limits."

    Indicated UK demand is about 46 Gw and thus into the orange sector on the gridwatch site.

    Indicated wind power is about 12.5 Gw, which AFAIK is another new record.

    With plenty of wind power, we are exporting 2 Gw to France, an unusual situation. France is currently beset by strikes which may be affecting domestic electricity production.
