What the source says
The UK’s electricity system, where gas-fired power generation makes up around 30% of total generation, was particularly affected by colder weather and reduced wind output in early 2025.
Checked: the figure 30%is stated in this passage. If it does not match, the extraction is wrong and we want to know.
