More than half of Northern Ireland's electricity came from renewable sources during the year ending in June, reaching a figure of 53% that exceeds the 51% level recorded previously in 2022.
Wind power accounted for the vast majority of this output, with almost three-quarters of all renewable electricity generated by turbines.
Solar energy contributed 6%, while landfill gas and hydro or tidal generation each supplied 1% of the total renewable mix.
Bioenergy derived from anaerobic digestion, incineration and fermentation provided just under one-fifth, or 18%, of the green electricity generated.
This surge to 53% by June follows several years where renewable generation had fallen below previous levels due to weather conditions affecting output.
Even when imported electricity is factored into the calculations, the amount of renewables produced equaled the prior record of 50% established in the 2022/23 period.
For the first time since January, renewable generation has consistently exceeded non-renewable generation throughout the year.
The grid operates with a specific limit on how much renewable energy it can carry because of fluctuations in supply and demand.
