The last coal-fired power station is shutting down.     Today, the UK closes the door on coal-powered electricity for good!   Why is this a big deal? It means the UK is the first G7 nation to phase out coal from its energy mix.   This is huge news in the fight against climate change.   Since 1882, coal has been part of the UK’s industrial journey, but today, wind and solar power have taken the lead.   In fact, wind and solar have helped to drive the decline in coal, making it possible for the UK to stop using it completely for electricity.   While this is an incredible achievement, we can’t forget the communities impacted by the closure. It’s a big transition, but with growth in renewable energy sectors like wind, solar, and even hydrogen production, there are exciting new opportunities on the horizon.   From 40% of electricity coming from coal in 2012, to less than 1% today, this is proof that rapid change is possible when we commit to greener energy.   Here’s to a fully decarbonised power system by 2030!   #energytransition #renewableenergy #greenfuture #coalphaseout #UK

Goodbye, Coal! A Milestone for the UK Grid For the first time in history, coal has dropped off the UK power grid, marking the end of 142 years of coal-powered electricity. This is a pivotal moment in our journey towards a cleaner, greener future! The UK has steadily phased out coal in favour of renewable energy sources like wind and solar. Now, with coal gone, we are on a path to a more sustainable energy system. At Jam Power, we’re proud to support this transition with our innovative energy solutions that save fuel, reduce emissions, and operate silently—perfect for a greener tomorrow. Let’s celebrate this incredible achievement and continue driving forward to a sustainable future! 💚⚡ #NetZero #GreenEnergy #RenewableEnergy #Sustainability #CleanEnergy #EnergyTransition #CoalFree #FutureofEnergy

Historical moment - UK's last coal-fired power station shuts down A few hours ago, the Ratcliffe power station, the UK's last remaining coal-fired power plant, officially shut down, marking a significant milestone in the country's energy history. This closure brings an end to 142 years of coal use for electricity generation in Britain. The utilisation of this energy source started in 1882 when the world’s first coal-powered station was built in London. Since then, coal has been a cornerstone of industrial growth and energy supply. Now, the UK is stepping into a cleaner, more sustainable future, leaving behind a long legacy of coal in favour of renewable energy sources.

The UK marks a historic milestone as Ratcliffe, the last coal-fired power station, shuts down, ending 142 years of coal-generated electricity. A bold step toward a cleaner, renewable energy future! #EnergyTransition #Sustainability

As we navigate the complexities of the global energy landscape, the importance of natural gas as both a transitional and destination fuel cannot be overstated. In regions where energy demand continues to rise, natural gas offers a pragmatic solution. It serves as a cleaner alternative to coal and plays a pivotal role in today's efforts towards a net zero economy by mid-century. 👉 Read on here: https://lnkd.in/dRqyCTPY #WeAreBakerHughes #BakerHughes #NaturalGas #Upstream #EnergyTechnology
