It wasn't a "single year where solar was exceptionally high" because they generated more in 2025 by mid August than they did in the full year of 2024.

The coal line was slightly under the previous year’s and is now overlapping i.e. no growth compared with last year (data up to October)

I dont think your link support the point you're trying to make. Unless you think a 200% increase in solar is better than a 50% increase in coal.

The link you've given shows more coal energy being added over the last 5 years than solar. Looking at end of 2020 to end of 2024.
