China
China’s growing energy needs are increasingly met by renewables, natural gas and electricity. The scale of China’s future electricity demand and the challenge of decarbonising the power supply help explain why global investment in electricity overtook that of oil and gas for the first time in 2016, and why electricity security is moving firmly up the policy agenda. That said, cost reductions for renewables are not sufficient on their own to secure efficient decarbonisation or reliable supply.
Between 2019 and 2024, China will account for 40% of global renewable capacity expansion, driven by improved system integration, lower curtailment…- Overview

Gaining an Edge Summary for policymakers
…increasing by 150% since 2015. Rising indicators, from manufacturing capacity to RD&D investments, signal ongoing market growth. Firms that position themselves as producers, as well as users, of energy efficiency technologies stand to gain market share at a pivotal time.While industry leaders recognise the competitiveness benefits of energy efficiency, they need help to overcome barriers to action. In an IEA survey of 1 000 firms around the world, around 80% of industry leaders report that efficiency is key to their competitiveness. However, respondents indicate that they face barriers to implementing more significant measures, including significant upfront costs and…

…70%. This reinforces demand for electricity, coal and natural gas, while the young age of industrial assets limits near-term opportunities for fuel switching. In transport, electric vehicles and biofuels curb oil demand growth, avoiding around 1 mb/d of oil demand by 2035 together, reducing exposure to import price volatility and saving roughly USD 25 billion in oil imports, but road freight, aviation and petrochemical feedstocks keep oil use rising. Buildings are a major source of electricity demand growth, led by cooling. Air conditioner stocks are set to triple by 2035 as incomes rise, cities expand and temperatures increase. Stronger…

Electricity Mid-Year Update 2025 Executive summary
Global electricity demand on course to expand robustly in 2025 and 2026 despite economic headwinds Global power demand is expected to rise much faster over the forecast 2025‑2026 period than it did during the past decade. While slower than the 4.4% surge in 2024, growth forecasts of 3.3% for 2025 and 3.7% for 2026 remain among the highest rates observed in the past decade and well above the 2015-2023 average of 2.6%. Despite a slowdown in economic activity, which has weighed on global electricity use so far in 2025, heatwaves continue to add to demand…

The next wave of LED lighting: Smarter, circular and more efficient
…reaches around 50 lm/W. Meanwhile, LEDs sold today average close to 100 lm/W – with some premium and professional LEDs exceeding 200 lm/W. Supported by strong policies and innovation, LEDs have become one of the biggest energy efficiency success stories of recent years, with long lifetimes and falling costs helping them dominate global markets. The efficiency gains have contributed to improved energy security, reduced energy bills and avoided higher emissions.Yet the global LED transformation is not over, and a second wave of deployment is now taking shape. Uptake remains uneven across regions, while demand for brighter spaces…

…projects or struggle to access the necessary technology.Several initiatives have emerged to help bridge these gaps. They support methane cuts through the sharing of best practices, building capacity or providing financial support and other forms of assistance. The IEA is engaged or affiliated with many of these efforts, which include:UNEP’s International Methane Emissions Observatory (IMEO), which delivers training and technical guidance to governments and companies looking to reduce methane emissions from the oil and gas sector. The IMEO also conducts scientific studies and analysis with data provided through an online portal.OGMP 2.0, which provides a reporting framework f...
