Q1 is in the winter so another quarter would have more solar. You can't look on a daily basis for energy generation.
Today's figures don't show that a shift to more renewables, storage and nuclear cannot be done.
We need to get on with it for the sake of future generations let alone ourselves.

Providing 17-22% of UK gas needs, isn't so miniscule.
Still wondering where the shortage is, and who is doing without.
9% solar today may look good, but come winter with shorter days and cloudy skies, it's not going to reach 9%. That is another gap to fill. If you don't have gas for electricity. you are could be looking at a 60% shortfall in winter. So what viable alternatives are there for not having gas generated electricity?
