The EuropeanCommission alsoparticipates in thework of the IEA Source: IEA.International Energy AgencyWebsite: www.iea.org Abstract Despite a slowdown in global economic growth prospects, the world’s electricityconsumption increased strongly in the first half of 2025, driven by rising demandfrom industry, appliances, cooling, data centres and electrification. At the sametime, electricity supply from renewables, natural gas and nuclear continues togrow, with all set to reach new milestones. This mid-year update follows the extensiveElectricity 2025report released inFebruary, examining the latest trends and the outlook for the remainder of theyear. It includes updated data for 2024 along with new forecasts for 2025 and2026 covering areas such as global electricity demand, supply by fuel type, andcarbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from electricity generation. The report alsoanalysesthe latest developments in major economies including China,theEuropean Union, India and the United States and provides updated tracking ofwholesale electricity prices across markets worldwide.

Despite a slowdown in economic activity, which hasweighed on global electricity use so far in 2025, heatwaves continue to add todemand in many regions, as they did in 2024. Rising demand from industry,appliances, growing air conditioning use, the expansion of data centres, andongoing electrification will remain major drivers of
