Unreal energy saving performance by yours truly for this bill cycle; managed to keep it below what I paid for the same period last year. Incredible scenes

Irish Energy Bot on Twitter: “Another record today: wind power was meeting 99.89% of electricity demand just before 6am this morning. That’s the second record in two days, today’s peak being a few tenths of a percentage higher than yesterday. The average between midnight and 6am? Wind met 95% of that demand. https://t.co/z3rxA0amUx” / Twitter
