Let's keep things in perspective. The avg share of renewables for each month in 2024 has been about 60%. Some weeks have been as high as 75% or as low as 43% [0].

That's all great, no doubt. But nowhere near close to 95% renewable mix.

This is why I said, "while I'm typing this". Today we produce 106% of our electricity demand renewably.

Sure, it's a windy sunday. But that doesn't change the fact that we're on the right track and just need to continue with renewables.
