Global Energy Review 2026 Oil
…but this 0.7% rise marked a further slowdown from 2024’s already-muted 0.75 mb/d of growth. The increase in both years was in line with IEA projections. The 2025 increase fell well short of the 2010-19 average annual rise of 1.4 mb/d, offering further evidence of a structural deceleration in oil markets.This slowdown mainly reflected weaker growth in petrochemical feedstock use. Demand for naphtha, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and ethane – the major raw materials for plastics consumption – lagged most clearly in the second quarter of 2025 as trade turmoil weighed on international…

Philippines
The Philippines has made significant progress in delivering electricity access, boosting the household electrification rate past 90% in 2016. The country is on track to meet the target of achieving universal electrification by 2022, as set out in the Philippine Development Plan 2017-2022.

Gaining an Edge Opportunities in efficiency markets
…until 2023. Committed projects – i.e. those that are either under construction or have reached a final investment decision – will double battery cell production capacity again by 2030. When considering all announcements on capacity additions, they are even expected to triple by that time. Other energy efficiency technologies also show similar market expansion. Heat pump production capacity is expected to add another 32% by 2030 based on committed and preliminary forecasts. Meanwhile, building insulation has seen strong growth in recent years driven by stricter energy performance regulations and rising energy costs, and is expected to maintain this momentum. In the…

Electricity Mid-Year Update 2025 Supply: Renewables grow the most, followed by gas and nuclear
…we forecast global gas-fired generation to rise by 1.3%, similar to its rate in 2025.By contrast, following growth of 1.3% in 2024, global coal-fired generation is forecast to decline very slightly by around 0.5% in 2025. Declines in China and Europe are partly offset by increases in other regions, most notably, in the United States, India and other Asian countries. Following this modest contraction, we expect global coal-fired output to decline by around 1.3% in 2026 due to continued growth of low-emissions generation and higher coal-to-gas switching in various…

Energy Efficiency Policy Toolkit Appliances
…policy approach combining regulation, information and incentives is the most effective way to achieve this goal. Regulations such as minimum energy performance standards (MEPS) can ensure that the least efficient equipment is not sold on the market. MEPS also encourage suppliers to increase the efficiency of the appliances they produce, accelerating the improvement of efficiency on the market. In countries where standards and labelling programmes have been implemented, appliances are now typically consuming 30% less energy than they would have otherwiseInformation instruments such as appliance energy labels are important tools to collect data for market analysis, providing an evidence base…

World Energy Outlook 2022 Outlook for solid fuels
…fired power generation reached a historic high in 2021. Both China and India have boosted investment in domestic coal production, but global production struggled to keep pace with demand increases, causing coal prices to surge. Russia – the world’s third-largest coal exporter – and its invasion of Ukraine complicated coal market dynamics and brought additional pressure on prices.The outlook for coal is heavily dependent on the strength of the world’s resolve to address climate change. In the Stated Policies Scenario (STEPS), coal demand declines gradually. In the Announced Pledges Scenario (APS), it declines about 20% below current levels…

The Future of Electricity in the Middle East and North Africa Executive summary
…of its natural gas. At the same time, it is emerging as a major centre of electricity demand growth, driven by a rapidly expanding population, urbanisation, rising living standards, and accelerating climate pressures. Between 2000 and 2024, electricity demand tripled – increasing by more than 1 000 terawatt-hours (TWh). This made the MENA region the third-largest contributor to global electricity demand growth after China and India. Looking ahead, demand is projected to rise by another 50% by 2035, adding the equivalent of the current demand of Germany and Spain combined – with significant implications for global energy markets. Cooling and…

China’s Official Energy Finance in Emerging and Developing Economies Setting the scene
…global investments today. However, these headline numbers often mask a persistent trend: a gaping regional imbalance in global energy investment. After removing the share of investment going towards advanced economies and People’s Republic of China (hereafter, “China”), emerging market and developing economies (EMDE) other than China account for around 27% of total energy investment and 18% of clean energy investment. With the bulk of future energy and electricity demand expected to be driven by EMDE, this disparity influences their ability to deliver secure, affordable energy transitions aligned with their development objectives. From around USD 875 billion today, energy investment in…
