World Energy Outlook 2025 Setting the scene
Context and scenario design All sources of energy increased in 2024 to meet the world’s rising energy needs. Electricity use expanded rapidly across a range of sectors. Deployment of renewable power generation again broke records in 2024, meeting more than 70% of the increase in electricity demand. Consumption of each of the fossil fuels rose. Global energy-related carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions reached another all-time high. The energy sector faces many uncertainties. The global economy is projected to grow at an average rate of 3% in the 2024-2030 period, but changes in the global policy environment and…

Coal Mid-Year Update 2025 Demand
…electricity demand and a significant increase in output from renewable sources. Industrial coal use also declined due to weak manufacturing activity, except for the chemical sector, which remained relatively resilient. For the second half of the year, we expect a modest recovery, and therefore anticipate overall coal demand in China to fall by 0.5% in 2025.Similarly, India experienced a 2.1% year-on-year drop in coal demand for power generation in the first half of the year. This was primarily due to an early onset of the monsoon season and a high baseline of consumption in 2024…

Global Hydrogen Review 2025 Production highlights
…the limited deployment achieved to date. However, this cost gap is still expected to narrow by 2030, with China reaching cost competitiveness thanks to low technology costs and a low cost of capital, and other regions reducing the cost gap significantly due to the combination of high cost of imported natural gas, good renewable resources and policy action in the form of CO2 prices (e.g. Europe, Latin America) .China leads on electrolyser manufacturing, deployment and cost-competitiveness. This has raised concerns about a repetition of the story of the solar PV or battery sectors, for which China now holds…
