Great Britain Electricity Generation and Carbon Intensity
Great Britain Electricity Generation and Carbon Intensity (NESO) 2025-2026 database: half-hourly generation mix and carbon intensity data for the GB grid, sourced from NESO (National Energy System Operator, formerly National Grid ESO). Covers gas, coal, nuclear, wind, hydro, solar, biomass, storage, and interconnector imports, with generation in MW, percentage share, and carbon intensity in gCO2/kWh, plus low-carbon, zero-carbon, renewable, and fossil fuel classifications.
