Spanning over 500,000 miles of transmission and distribution lines, the UK’s electric network was, for the first time in 2023, dominated by renewables. Growing demand to power devices for 30 million plus customers, together with an wide-scale adoption of EV and other sustainable options, is being offset by warmer weather, higher bills and consumer behaviour changes, however consumption is predicted to increase by approximately 50% by 2036 and more than double by 2050.
