GeoEnergy encompasses all established and developing energy provision technologies and sources that interact with the geological subsurface. The term often also includes geological carbon mitigation strategies such as #CCUS and #CDR.
The last day has clearly demonstrated the challenges of the UK energy mix. A dramatic decline in wind, coinciding with peak Boxing Day demand, required gas to step in, pump-storage at full flow and significant imports via interconnectors.

This morning, wind is working flat out providing over 61% of the UK’s 28 GW. Nice to see!

But….we have to remember, as the sun rises and we all go for our Saturday morning cuppa, the demand will rise pretty significantly!
