Original Note:
Choosing a single biomass station as representative of renewable energy emissions is inherently biased. 74.8% of emissions in 2023 came from fossils fuels. https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/6604460f91a320001a82b0fd/uk-greenhouse-gas-emissions-provisional-figures-statistical-release-2023.pdf Renewables and even biomass emit between 10 and 1000 times less carbon per kWh than fossil fuels. https://www.parliament.uk/globalassets/documents/post/postpn268.pdf
