It's not the best weather for solar here so I'm very surprised we rank to be honest. Especially given the amount we've been ploughing into wind.

By 2023, the UK had over 11 thousand wind turbines with a total installed capacity of 30 gigawatts (GW): 16 GW onshore and 15 GW offshore,[5] the sixth largest capacity of any country.[6]
