DECC last week released their Digest of UK Energy Statistics for 2012 which provided some encouraging data for those who are working toward a more sustainable future for the UK.
Most notably was the year-on-year increase of electricity generated from renewable sources from 2010 to 2011 as it rose from 6.8% to 9.4% of the total energy supply.
With the deployment of so many small scale solar installations, wind farms and commercial solar PV fields in 2012 this figure can only go one way in 2012, up.

What do you make of our increased reliance on renewable energy sources? Will it only ever compliment fossil fuels and nuclear power or eventually take its place? Let us know you thoughts below.
