Britain's gas and electricity expected to meet winter demand, but power could face 'tight days'

Britain's electricity and gas grid operators expect supplies to meet demand in winter 2026-27, according to The Independent and Sky News. NESO warns that cold, still weather could bring tighter electricity margins, while National Gas forecasts falling domestic production and roughly 6% more LNG imports. National Gas also identifies a rare combination of extreme weather and major supply disruption that could challenge gas supplies.
