Wind electricity production in the UK goes down again

There were just a few hours with high wind speed and a significant increase in the share of renewables in the total electricity balance. The Figure below (borrowed from this website) shows that wind energy production increased to 12.95 GWH between 00:00  and 00:30 on April 1 and then started to decrease to the current level of  2.61 GWH (9:00, April 2). This is approximately a variation by a factor of 5. Natural gas is the remedy against such variations. And it works.
