I’m not OP but: https://www.carbonbrief.org/analysis-how-the-uk-plans-to-rea...

It’s either 27 or 27GW they are installing sorry.

27GW for an hour or for a week?

There’s a massive difference.

The link doesn’t mention - that was my point.

Surely it’s per hour though?

27GW means 27 billion joules per second.

27GW per hour is a rate of acceleration of energy use.
