Two part graphic showing the daily contribution of solar in Great Britain’s electricity. The top half is a single tile chart arranged in 30-minute blocks from midnight on left to 23:59 on right with each row representing one day and ordered top-to-bottom from 1 January to 31 December 2025. Blocks are shaded by strength of generation share. In 2025, more than a dozen blocks are dark orange to show share above 40 percent. Contribution in summer days is longer and generally stronger than in winter. The second part of the graphic repeats the format as a small multiple with one fart for each year from 2013 to 2024. Each year increases in strength over that period but 2025 is the greatest contributor overall.
