Storm Eunice: UK Power Prices Plunge With Windmill Workout
UK power prices have fallen 11% due to record-breaking winds, which caused energy output to soar Friday.
Storm Eunice cranked wind turbine energy generation up to 11.48 gigawatts – well above the 7.2GW for gas output.
Cheaper energy prices are a brief respite from the onslaught of rising bills across Europe – but it’s had a deadly toll on Britain and parts of Europe too.
Thousands remain without power, and many have seen the most powerful storm in decades leave widespread damage.
