Home Apps Practical Tools Carbon Intensity Forecast (UK Grid)

View a 48 hour forecast of the CO₂ intensity of the GB electricity grid

This application provides an indicative trend of the carbon intensity of the electricity system in Great Britain (GB) up to 48 hours ahead of real-time. It uses the UK National Grid's public carbon intensity database, which was developed in partnership with the Environmental Defense Fund Europe and WWF.

This forecast can be used to help to plan your electricity usage (such as using a washing machine or charging an electric vehicle) at times of low carbon intensity, to reduce your carbon footprint. However, users of Economy 7, Economy 10 and other time-related tariffs should be aware that the cost of charges for their electricity will change across the day.

Further information regarding carbon intensity forecasting can be found on the 'Info' page in the app, or at:
