Abstract. The reducing cost of solar and wind energy together with the UK commitments to net-zero emissions will mean that UK energy systems for 2050 and similarly those in many other countries will be dominated by variable renewable supplies. Electricity systems are expected to be very reliable but renewable energy is inherently intermittent.
