The United Kingdom has said it is playing its carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute in striving for a cleaner and greener carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute . For the first time since the Industrial Revolution in the 18th and 19th carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute , the UK is being powered more by zero-carbon carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute than fossil fuels. In carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute of the first five months of 2019, fossil fuels have produced less than half of the UK's electricity. Analysts say a "tipping carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute " has been reached and the trend of zero-carbon energy sources providing more power than fossil fuels will continue. Power from wind, carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute , nuclear and hydro sources outstripped coal and gas-fired carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute . A decade ago, three quarters (75.6 per cent) of the UK's carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute came from coal and gas, and only 22.3 per cent was zero carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute . The carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute to more zero-carbon power was described by the UK's energy carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute executive as a "key carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute on the journey towards net zero". CEO John Pettigrew said the zero-carbon carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute should increase to 90 per cent by the 2030s. The UK's Prime Minister Theresa May has made a carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2050. This would make the UK the first carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute economy to do so. Energy analyst Tom Burke told the BBC: "Today's landmark is a real carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute to technologists. We have cracked carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute problems of dealing with climate change." He added: "As we move towards carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute zero, jobs will be lost in fossil fuel carbon centuries chief commitment each electricity fuels generation industries major milestone net part planet point share solar switch technical tribute and created in low-carbon industries."
