Open climate intelligence for Great Britain

About Green Climate Hub

An independent, open-source window into Britain's electricity system. We turn live grid data into clear, actionable insight for researchers, professionals and the climate-curious.

What we track

Everything that shapes the grid

Live carbon intensity

See how clean or dirty the grid is right now, measured in grams of CO₂ per kWh.

Generation mix

Track where Britain's power comes from wind, solar, gas, nuclear, biomass and more.

Demand & price

Watch real-time electricity demand and wholesale market prices as they change.

Cross-border flows

Follow electricity imports and exports with France, Norway, Denmark and other neighbours.

Our mission

Make the energy transition visible

The UK grid is changing faster than ever. Coal is gone, wind and solar are growing, and demand is being shaped by electric vehicles and heat pumps. Yet the data that describes this transformation is often buried in complex market systems.

Green Climate Hub brings that data into the open live generation, carbon intensity, demand, pricing and interconnector flows so policymakers, researchers, energy professionals and citizens can see what is happening in real time.
