The peak combined wind and solar energy generation in the UK currently exceeds 35.7 GW under optimal conditions. For wind energy, daily output varies with weather, but during periods of strong wind, peaks in generation have surpassed 20 GW in recent years. The long-term average load factor for UK wind farms (onshore and offshore) is about 30.82%. As of early 2024, the UK's installed solar energy capacity stands at approximately 15.7 GW. On optimal summer days, solar energy generation peaks at over 10 GW, typically in June or July when daylight hours are longest, and conditions are favourable.
