In 2025, all growth in global electricity demand was fulfilled by renewable energy sources, marking a pivotal moment in the transition from fossil fuels. Solar power generation surged by nearly 33%, achieving a record high and contributing to 75% of the increase in electricity demand. This growth was largely driven by China, which has become the world's leading exporter of clean energy components. Fossil fuel generation remained stagnant, with a slight decline of 0.2%. The report from Ember highlights that renewable energy accounted for 34% of global electricity generation, surpassing coal's 33% share. Additionally, advancements in battery storage have allowed for better utilization of solar power, with 14% of new solar generation being stored for use at different times. As countries face rising fossil fuel prices amid geopolitical tensions, the need to electrify transport and heating systems has become urgent. Ember's managing director, Aditya Lolla, emphasized the importance of modernizing power grids and regulatory frameworks to support this clean energy transition. A global meeting of over 50 countries in Colombia is set to address the urgency of moving away from fossil fuels.
