  Renewable power sources generated 40% of Britain's electricity in 2022, up from 35% last year, while the share of fossil fuel in the energy mix also rose, according to a report.
  Britain, in common with other European countries, extended the life of coal-fired power units to try to ensure adequate supplies during winter peak demand as Britain's power imports dropped to zero in 2022, compared with 8% of supplies in 2021, Drax said.
  Drax is Britain's biggest renewable power generator by output, but an energy plant run by the company was revealed to be the biggest single source of carbon dioxide in the UK..
