MSP kWh is the amount of electricity consumed at the 'meter supply point', which is the customer's meter. GSP kWh is obtained by multiplying the MSP kWh by the Line Loss Factor (LLF, a figure > 1) to include the amount of electricity lost when it is conducted through the distribution network, from the 'grid supply point' to the customer's meter.
Hydroelectric: 2.2% (2.6% in 1990) Oil and other: 3.3% (12% in 1990) UK Government energy policy had targeted a total contribution from renewables to achieve 10% by 2010, but it was not until 2012 that this figure was exceeded; renewable energy sources supplied 11.3% (41.3 TWh) of the electricity generated in the United Kingdom in 2012.

The average household energy bill will rise by £94 a year from January after Ofgem increased its price cap in response to rising wholesale prices.
World energy consumption from 1989 to 1999.. This is a list of countries by total primary energy consumption and production.. 1 quadrillion BTU = 293 TW·h = 1.055 EJ 1 quadrillion BTU/yr = 1.055 EJ/yr = 293 TW·h/yr = 33.433 GW
Ofgem’s energy price cap has risen from £1,717 to £1,738 for January to March – an increase of 1.2 per cent. This will mean higher bills for most households as the cold weather continues to ...
The Office of Gas and Electricity Markets (Ofgem), supporting the Gas and Electricity Markets Authority (GEMA, the Ofgem Board [2]), is the government regulator for the electricity and downstream natural gas markets in Great Britain. [3] It was formed by the merger of the Office of Electricity Regulation (OFFER) and Office of Gas Supply (Ofgas).
The price of the cap is set for each unit of gas and electricity used, plus a daily standing charge, so that it varies with consumption. Ofgem designed the cap level to take into account several factors: wholesale energy costs (how much a supplier has to pay to get the gas and electricity to supply households with energy), energy network costs ...
Government figures for December 2020 showed renewable sources generated 41.4% of the electricity produced in the UK, [26] being around 6% of total UK energy usage. Q4 2022 statistics were similar, with low carbon electricity generation (which includes nuclear) at 57.9 per cent of total electricity generation (same as Q4 2021).
