Description	The Drax biomass power plant in North Yorkshire generates electricity by burning biomass wood pellets. It provided 9% of the UK's electricity in July 2025, its largest ever monthly share, and nearly 17% during one morning in September 2025. The government has agreed to extend subsidies for the plant beyond 2026, with a new subsidy agreement limiting its operational time to just over a quarter of the time, down from almost two-thirds.
